  2. Here are the beats that were discussed in class...

    Set up earlier in the series that BB needs a wife if he’s going to have a shot at being elected.

    3-time Academy Award-winner MEADOW LE BARON wants the rights to Charlie’s life.

    Meadow has to go through BB to get to Charlie. BB is crazy in love with her, but he won’t grant her access – not without getting something in return.

    Meadow sleeps with BB to get access to Charlie.

    Daisy is jealous.

    Meadow meets Charlie. Charlie won’t give her the rights.

    BB convinces Meadow that he can get Charlie to give her the rights.

    BB proposes. Meadow accepts.

    Charlie tells Meadow to spend time in the hole if she wants to know what it’s like to be her.

    Meadow goes nuts in the hole. We find out she was only in there for six minutes.

    BB can’t marry a crazy lady. That would hurt his political chances.

    Daisy consoles BB.

    BB is responsible for an Academy Award winning actress going nuts. He loses huge numbers of voters.

    BB takes it out on Charlie. He puts her back in the hole.

    A major studio voids their multi-picture deal with Meadow and sues BB.

  3. 3-time Academy Award-winner MEADOW LE BARON has just been let into the prison. She heads straight for the boss.

    Word gets to a comfortable BB, taking a nap, that the beautiful starlet is making way towards his office, He brushes himself up--straightens his tie and buttons his pants back up and buckles his belt.--

    Meadow opens he doors to BB's office. She waltzes right on in as if she owns the joint. Meadow has to go through BB to get to Charlie.

    Meadow starts to preen as she opens up the conversation. --she twirls her hair and she cracks a half smile like a bolt of lightening-- BB is having trouble containing himself, although he'd like to say he's keepin' it cool...He's not.

    Meadow seduces BB to get to Charlie.

    BB, thinking the ball is in his court, says that her demands are out of the question, simultaneously he vaguely hints that perhaps there is something she can do for him. She takes the hint(she was expecting it) and continues to allude to BB's big prize at the end of the tunnel.

    --BB, thinking she's into him, starts to unbuckle his belt from behind the table--

    BB stands up at the moment when he can bare no more desire. He stands up in the fashion of "SURPRISE!" --His pants fall to his ankles--

    Meadow's reaction is more like "yeah, no thanks, maybe later?" but she says in a sardonic tone "Gladly, but After my research darling."

    Meanwhile Daisy has casually pressed her ear up against the warden's door. Daisy is insanely jealous.

    --Daisy bitterly escorts Meadow to Charlie's cell--

    Meadow meets Charlie. Charlie won’t give her the rights. But Meadow refuses to give up. Annoying Charlie in the process.

    BB convinces Meadow that he can get Charlie to give her the rights.

    Straight out of left field, BB proposes. Meadow half heartedly accepts.

    as BB works on his plan to get charlie to give up the goods, Meadow continues with her research.

    Charlie, needing a break from the relentless barrage of meaningless questions about her character, convinces Meadow to spend time in the hole if she wants to know what it’s like to be her.

    --Daisy gladly takes her--

    Meadow goes nuts in the hole. We find out she was only in there for six minutes.

    BB's chances of a sweet lay by a famous starlet is out the window...and his marriage proposal? six feet deep.

    Daisy consoles BB.

    BB realizes he is going to be held responsible for an Academy Award winning actress going nuts. He loses huge numbers of voters.

    BB takes it out his frustration on Charlie. He puts her back in the hole.

    A major studio voids their multi-picture deal with Meadow and sues BB.

    "well that figures" - BB

    The End.

  4. This is good,

    The only thing I think its missing is a bigger motive for Charlie.

    In class we discussed that she tricks the actress in to sleeping with BB because thats what she has to do, to truly be method.

    All though, we don't want Charlie doing BB any favors so maybe it happens as more of a misunderstanding.

    Establish a strong visual sense of the story.

    I'm looking for creative input from all of you.

  7. i dunno if he should sleep with her, in this episode it wouldn't add anything or propel the story in any way.

  8. I agree Michael, I think her being more as a seductress towards him then sleeping with him.

  9. BB and Daisy leave his office towards the grounds when movie star MEADOW LE BARON crosses their paths.

    Overjoyed with excitement BB rushes to her bumping Daisy and causing her to fall down a flight of stairs.

    Meadow introduces herself and flirts with BB. She comes right out with "So your the guy I need to fullfill my request". BB turns on his southern charm but quickly feels disappointed when she tells him that she wants to see Charlie.

    BB at first refuses but Meadown persistantly flirts until BB surrenders. But requests Meadow has a romantic dinner with him. She agrees and heads to Charlie's cell.

    Daisy escorts Meadow to see Charlie, on the way Daisy has Meadow walk close to a cell and an inmate snatches her fur coat, Daisy hesitates to get the coat back and even laught. Shaken but not easily scared Meadow continues to Charlie's cell. Daisy is pissed

    Meadow tries her charm with Charlie, who is not impress nor does she show Meadow any attention. Charlie rudely cuts Meadow off and tells her she is not interested in her having anything to do with her life story.

    Meadow returns to BB's office. He has it decorated with candles, flowers and even playing romatic music. Meadow pays no mind, grabs the bottle of wine on the table and takes a gulp. BB tries grabbing her hand but she pulls away. BB still consistant tells her he has named a section of the prison after her.

    Meadow realizing how obsessed BB is with her decides to play him. Meadown cries about wanting the part of playing Charlie. BB pledges to her he will get Charlie to agree if Meadow marries him. She agrees crossing her fingers behind her back.
    BB gives her the ring and crams his tongue down her throat. Wanting to have sex with her Meadown pushes him off and tells him to get the signed contract first.

    BB charges into Charlie's cell and demands her to talk to Meadow and reconsider her offer. Charlie makes a deal with BB to get more stuff in her cell. BB agrees and tells Daisy to get Meadow.

    Daisy walks back with Meadow and notices the ring, she is furious but holds it in. Charlie asks if she can walk Meadown around the prison. BB agrees without thinking. Charlie walks with Meadow telling her about one of her greatess scams.

    Charlie and Meadow approach the hole, Charlie tries to convince Meadow to go in but she is reluctant. Charlie talks about how the hole really made her the perfect mastermind, this is enough for Meadow to go in.
    Meadow enters and Charlie closes the door. Daisy who is behind the door locks it.

    SUPER SIX MINUTES LATER
    BB walks through the prison and sees Charlie in her cell, he begins to yell at her for Meadow. Charlie points towards Solitary.

    BB runs to the hole where Meadow is yelling frantically, he has Daisy unlock the door and Meadow runs out looking absolutely hideous. Meadow cannot contain herself and throws herself to the ground.
    BB both mad and worried asks Daisy to help him hold her down so he can get his ring back.

    The next day Daisy escorts Charlie back to the hole. They pass BB as he instructs officers to not let any lawyers, agents or talent through the gates.

    THE END

  12. I liked Michaels so I used his as a spring board for my draft of the outline. Here it is:

    3-time Academy Award-winner MEADOW LE BARON and aging 63 year old starlet has just been let into the prison. She heads straight for the boss.

    Word gets to a comfortable BB, taking a nap, that the “beautiful” starlet is making way towards his office, BB takes out a comb from his back pocket and attempts to hide his balding head with a comb over.

    Meadow opens the doors to BB's office. She waltzes right on in as if she owns the joint. BB stops her and asks her to accompany her to his office.

    BB starts the conversation puffing himself up. Meadow responds in kind as she twirls her hair and she cracks a half smile like a bolt of lightning-- BB is having trouble containing himself, although he'd like to say he's keepin' it cool...He's not. Meadow proposes they get into bed with eachother.

    They are in bed. Meadow bluntly asks if she can see Charlie.

    --Daisy bitterly escorts Meadow to Charlie's cell--

    Meadow meets Charlie. Charlie won’t give her the rights. But Meadow refuses to give up.

    Charlie, needing a break from the relentless barrage of meaningless questions about her character, convinces Meadow to spend time in the hole if she wants to know what it’s like to be her.
    Meadow goes to BB and asks him to be put in the whole. BB refuses worried that the whole is no place for a beautiful woman like Meadow.

    --Daisy gladly takes her--

    BB proposes to Meadow while she’s in the whole she accepts. BB celebrates. Meadow asks to be let out of the whole. BB is too busy celebrating.
    When Meadow is released from the solitary and is clearly completely nuts.
    BB decides to go through with the wedding anyways. But it is a complete disaster.

    BB realizes he is going to be held responsible for an Academy Award winning actress going nuts. He loses huge numbers of voters.

    BB takes it out his frustration on Charlie. He puts her back in the hole.
