Amontillado Adaptation


INT. DALE MONTRESOR’S HOME

            MONTRESOR has a house party for his friend SAUL’S birthday.  Invited to this party is RED FORTUNATO.  There are 50 people drinking, dancing, talking and having a good time. MONTRESOR is on the second floor eavesdropping on RED FORTUNATO and SAUL’S conversation taking place just under him on the first floor.

SAUL
Come on FORTUNATO man; stop taking all of MONTRESOR’S food!

RED FORTUNATO
Man fuck MONTRESOR! I only hang out with him because you like him, and you and me are boys.  Me and him have nothing in common and you know it stop trying to force this relationship.

SAUL
I can’t believe you don’t like him after all that nice shit you told him

RED FORTUNATO
Yea bro it’s called acting.  MONTRESOR’S dumbass couldn’t pick up on how fake I was so I just rolled with it.

DALE MONTRESOR MUMBLING UNDER HIS BREATHE
That motherfucker…

MONTRESOR then walks downstairs while thinking of ways to get RED FORTUNATO back.  MONTRESOR then remembers the stash of AMONTILLADO he picked up and knew he can use FORTUNATO’S marijuana knowledge against him in order to get him out of the picture for good.  MONTRESOR approaches SAUL and RED FORTUNATO

DALE MONTRESOR
Hey! What’s up mothafucka’s how you guys like the party?

SAUL
It’s cool man, but I think I see one of my boys trying to jump out of your second floor window…I gotta go.  (SAUL EXITS)

DALE MONTRESOR
Alright well, what’s up FORTUNATO what were you and SAUL talking about?

RED FORTUNATO
Ah you know the same old shit, what’s goin on in the new season of the bachelor and shit like that.

DALE MONTRESOR
Oh cool man hey I’m happy I saw you I wanted to tell you some guy I served today gave me some new shit called AMONTILLADO.  I’ve never heard of it but this guy said it’s supposed to be the craziest weed he’s ever smoked.

RED FORTUNATO
AMONTILLADO?  You got AMONTILLADO? That’s more rare than the Pineapple Express shit I got you! How much?

DALE MONTRESOR
Wait it’s that fuckin rare?  I want to just get rid of this shit then man last time I had your Pineapple Express I almost got killed by a crazy ass drug lord. 

RED FORTUNATO
Fuck no man you can’t get rid of it, lets go smoke this shit.

DALE MONTRESOR
Alright man yeah let’s smoke it, we can go in my basement and do it, I don’t need any of these fuckers trying to steal my stash. 

DALE MONTRESOR and RED FORTUNATO head to the basement.

THE END
