5050 Ep 1 Script

Hey yall I thought I might as well share some of what I've been writing for the comic here since I don't have much new art to post ;-; Sorry about that. Here's the first episode of 5050 I'm planning!

[Dylan peeks her head into the breakroom]

Dylan: Sooooo-

Zhen: Is this important or is it about that blue haired chick?

Dylan: She is important! You guys were like super hitting it off the other day-

Zhen: Do you want me to tell Mr. B that you're bothering the Manager on her break?

Dylan: Ugh, fine! But it's been so boring today!

Zhen: Welcome to 5050.

[Cut to Dylan mopping a stain on the floor of the store.]

Dylan: This stain has been on this floor since I started working here!

Jackie: Um, excuse me.

[Dylan looks up and sees Jackie, the girl she's trying to set up with Zhen.]

Jackie: Sorry to bother you, but I noticed you guys were out of green onions. Do you think there are any in the back?

["Holy shit it's her!" Dylan thinks. She salutes]

Dylan: Let me go check right now!

Jackie: Sorry again for interrupting you, I just couldn't find anyone else nearby.

Dylan: It's fine! No worries.

[Dylan throws the mop she was using on the ground. Cut to her bursting through the door of the breakroom.]

Dylan: Zhen! There's a customer asking if we have any more green onions in the back!

Zhen: So? You know where they are.

Dylan: Yeah but... um... They were asking for cooking advice! Like different recipes and stuff.

Zhen [unamused]: A customer came in looking for green onions and doesn't even know what they want to cook with them?

Dylan: I- yes. And since I have no knowledge of cooking myself, I figured you could help them! They seem really lost.

Zhen: Dylan, that makes no sense.

Dylan: They're waiting in aisle 4! Now if you excuse me, I have to find some better cleaning supplies for that stain.

Zhen: The one in aisle 3? That things been there since the place opened.

Dylan: Do you think I'd get a raise if I'm the one to finally get rid of it?

Zhen: I highly doubt it.

[Cut to Zhen walking out with a bunch of green onions in a box. As soon as she sees Jackie she sighs, realizing Dylan just set her up.]

Jackie: Oh thank you so much! I felt so bad bothering that other girl since she was busy cleaning.

Zhen: I promise you, she doesn't mind.

Jackie: Ha, well that's good. Thanks again, Zhen right?

Zhen: Yeah. No problem.

[Jackie smiles and walks away. Zhen turns to see Dylan behind her with her hands on her hips]

Dylan: What was that!

Zhen: A customer.

Dylan: You didn't even ask her for her name?

Zhen: No.

Dylan: Why not? That was like a perfect opportunity!

Zhen: Because I don't care.

Dylan: But you should-

Zhen: Did my mom put you up to this? Is that why you keep trying to set me up with people?

Dylan: Aunt Kim? No! I mean she may have mentioned that you've been feeling lonely recently, but I'm worried about you too! You just seem... unhappy.

Zhen: Gee I wonder why? [sarcasm]

Dylan: Don't worry, Zhen. Your favorite cousin is on the case. I promise I'll help you find someone or something to make you feel better.

[She looks at Zhen sincerely.]

Dylan: I do care about you yknow.

[Zhen sighs]

Zhen: I know.

Dylan: Good. Now help me with this stain, I'm determined to clean it off by the end of the day.

Zhen: It'll never happen.

Dylan: I will be victorious!
