GEOFFREY<br />

(triumphant)<br />

Love fifteen!<br />

EDWARD<br />

(to himself)<br />

I know.<br />

CUT TO:<br />

Minutes later. GEOFFREY to serve.<br />

GEOFFREY<br />

Forty love.<br />

He serves. The ball is fast. EDWARD just gets his racket to it -<br />

and mis-hits.<br />

Oops...<br />

EDWARD<br />

But he has hit an accidental drop-shot.<br />

GEOFFREY runs frantically from the baseline.<br />

He makes a desperate lunge, almost dives, but he does not make<br />

it.<br />

He stands still, lifts his gaze to the sky, takes a deep breath<br />

in a show of a man mastering his feelings. He is furious with<br />

himself.<br />

As he walks back to serve, he slaps his buttock with his racket.<br />

GEOFFREY<br />

For Godssakes man. Come on!<br />

Minutes later. GEOFFREY serves an ace.<br />

GEOFFREY (CONT’D)<br />

That’s it. Six love, six love, six<br />

love.<br />

CUT TO:<br />

But he is not pleased. He had set himself the task of ensuring<br />

EDWARD did not get a point, and he has failed.
