EXT. STREET - NOON GREEN CAR door open from residential parking spot. MOLLY exits, carefully lighting a roach avoiding smoke entering vehicle and cautiously surveying surroundings for neighborhood watchers. An alley behind the store fronts along intersecting street provide solitary path to the next block over. Talking into her earbuds, Molly criticizes how smoking culture has radically changed from tobacco smokers of the 70’s to discreet drags of e-cigarettes and joints being consumed on the DOWNLOW. BIERDE (FILTERED) What did you say about markdown? MOLLY No. Nevermind. That’s not I said. Molly sees street maintenance workers at the end of the alley. She holds the mic closer to her lips. INT. R S DEVELOPMENT - CONTINUOUS BIERDE juggles two phones, an iPad and a desktop terminal. BIERDE That’s better. I’m just realizing what a headache it is transferring files and apps from one phone to another. Customer support claimed it’s as easy as ejecting the SIM card from the old phone and installing it into the new one. INTERCUT PHONE CONVERSATION MOLLY I’m walking to the chicken take-out joint. It’s so bright out, and hot, it’s giving me a massive headache. Bierde removes his glasses clutching his eyes as if they’re about to fall out of his head. BIERDE Did you know LiveJournal’s mobile app no longer appears in the App Store? MOLLY No. BIERDE When did that happen? Was it when Russia was possible facing a coupe by their own military? MOLLY Get an Android. BIERDE Really? It’s still available for Android? MOLLY Yup. It’s like the same bias between states when vacationing and you find yourself trying to use your cannabis card. Have you seen lorenazoejt skits on TikTok? BIERDE No, but I finally found a way to tear myself away from TikTok long enough to focus on productivity and I’m finding that a lot of the mobile apps that make life easier can cause headaches trying to troubleshoot technical problems with the customer service department. MOLLY Oh, I’m totally not dependent on social media. BIERDE My biggest pet peeve is how much damage watching videos up close on a phone can do to your eyes. Even camera apps for photography nerds like me, which has zero hypnotic entertainment value, has me scrutinizing the pix I take on the display instead of generating a hard copy. The topic stimulates a memory byte of a digital photo printer in the back of one of BIERDE’s desk drawers which he scavenges for, presses the on button, realizes the charge is drained and continues digging for a charge cable.
