Even more of the Heart of Dorkiness

[BS office. BS is at his computer.]
BS: Oh, no. That could mess up everything! I wonder if... [stats clicking]
[AM knocks at the door.]
BS: [Absent minded while still looking at his computer] Enter.
AM: Bryan, I wanted to ask you something.
BS: [Still reading something on his computer] Go ahead, shoot.
AM: Yeah, well, I keep getting cryptic calls from the Sci-Fi channel asking me when I'll be available.
BS: [Still not paying attention] Uh, huh.
AM: When I ask why they won't say anything and I just get redirected to NBC.
BS: NBC is just a bunch of assholes!
AM: People have been talking...
BS: I can't believe they would do this!
AM: ...so I'm wondering. Has someone sold my contract to Stan Lee or something to bump up the effects budget? Because while Chloe may be attached to Superman I don't want to get stuck on some second rate reality show...
BS: "Who wants to be a Superhero"? That's a great show.
AM: What? [pause] Just because they're owned by NBC doesn't mean they should let you push us around...
BS: OMG! That's right, NBC owns that show, don't they! [Slams his fist on the table] The bunch of bastards!
AM: I knew it! That's the real reason I'm being fired, isn't it?
BS: [Finally turns around and faces AM] That network is nothing but a bunch of money grubbing bastards!
AM: Yes, they are!
BS: But I'm not going to let them get away with this!
AM: You're absolutely right, Bryan! Hold the line!
BS: Yes! That's it! That's it! I'm going to fight for the little people!
AM: Because you're a fighter!
[BS gets up and starts running around the office fist in air]
BS: Like Superman!
[Following suit, fist in air]
AM: Yes, like Superman! NBC is worse than the Salkinds!
BS: [Stops suddenly] The Salkinds? Now, let's not get carried away.
AM: [Unable to stop in time bumps into him] What? Yes, of course. No one is as bad as the Salkinds, but they are a bunch of bastards.
BS: They're the bunch of no-good Bastards!
AM: [Running around the office fist in air] You're right! NBC, the No-good Bastard Channel!
BS: [Now following AM] They want a piece of this?!?!
AM: [Shakes her fist] Of course they don't!
BS: I'm going to give them a piece of my mind!
AM: [Hands him the phone] Of course you are, because you're Bryan Singer!
BS: And I made my own Superman movie! I love superheroes!
AM: Give them the hell they deserve!
BS: I'm going to rake them over the coals! This will not stand!
AM: [Smiling] Great. I'll give you some privacy! [AM exits]
BS: Hello? Hello? Is this NBC? This is Bryan Singer! I.... yes I'll hold.

[TW typing in his trailer with MR]
TW: Why do your robots always have to be naked!
MR: Because they are women!
TW: That's... that could really get you into trouble.
MR: And they explode!
TW: Still trouble.
MR: I don't care, trouble is my middle name.
[The phone rings, TW answers]
TW: Hello?

[BS office]
BS: Voice mail!?!?! Why of all the.... yes, this is Bryan Singer! I made my own Superman movie!

[TW's trailer]
MR: Who is it?
TW: It's Allison.
MR: What does she want?
TW: If you'd stop talking to me I could find out!
MR: Look, Chloe is gone! Don't let her take away my naked exploding women robots.
TW: You want Chloe written back in?!!?!
MR: Is she on crack?
TW: Bryan decided not to fire you after all? Are you sure?
MR: She is on crack, isn't she?
TW: [frowns and smacks MR's shoulder] Shut up!
MR: Ow!

[BS's office]
BS: How dare you pull out of iTunes! How am I supposed to watch my favorite show on my iPod now!?!?!?

[TW's trailer]
MR: Oh, no, if we put Chloe back in that means...
TW: We're going to have to rewrite the episode from scratch to bring Chloe back in.
MR: But...

[BS's office]
BS: "Who wants to be a Superhero" used to be my favorite show! I love super heroes! I made my own super hero movies! Three of them! But now your show is dead to me! You hear?!?! Dead!

[TW's trailer]
TW: I guess your naked exploding women robots will just have to wait, Michael.
MR: Nooooooooooo! Allison always ruins everything! Give me the phone.
TW: Why.
MR: So I can cuss her out!
TW: [hangs up]
MR: You suck.

[BS's office. He slams the phone down]
BS: I think they'll get the message. [Looks around] Allison? [Check behind his stand up Chris Reeves cut out] Allison? [Pause] Hmmm. I wonder what she wanted?
