(crickets chirping) - Look, I just don't want to deal with this right now. I'm tired and I want to go home, okay? I just wanna go to McDonald's. Whoa, wait, hey, whoa. We're not done, where you going? - I just really have to pee. - Oh, oh, do you? That's a shock, Adrienne does whatever she wants when she wants to, fantastic. I'm so happy I took you to my boss's house where you, oh yeah, did what you wanted and made an ass out of yourself and out of me. - Look, I told you, I have no idea what you
're talking about. - It was a work party, Adrienne, a work party. It was not some bar full of cute boys for you to flirt with. You were meant to behave. - Behave? How was I not behaving myself? - Well for one thing, you would not stop talking. We all had to be polite to you. I mean, no one cares about the fact that you are saving up money at Sephora until you can enroll in an MFA program, literally no one. And the second thing, how about you were acting like a fucking slut? - Wow. - You were sip
ping my boss' son's drink for fuck's sake. - Because he was the bartender. He wanted me to try a new drink he invented. He actually offered you one too. (Heston groans) Okay, how about we? Yeah. This is silly, okay? Let's just- - You are so selfish. - I'm selfish? - Yeah, yeah. - Wow, so I'm the perfect girlfriend in the world when we're alone but when I so much as look at anyone who's not you, I'm a fucking cunt? No, I didn't mean that. Heston, I'm sorry. Where, where are you going? Can you at
least give me my key, please? I left it in your pocket. It couldn't fit in my stupid purse. Okay Heston, how about we just forget this whole argument happened, okay? Maybe we're both hungry and we can just go get something to eat? I'm actually starving, I didn't eat anything the entire time because I didn't wanna get food stuck between my teeth. - I'm nice when you need me, right? Because you do need me. You don't have a car. You lost your bus pass and now you want me to buy you a late night sna
ck? (Heston chuckles) - Are you serious? - You are so selfish. (car engine rumbles) - Wait, you're just gonna leave me here? - [Heston] Yeah. (somber electronic music) (scooter rattles) - [Adrienne] Woo! (oil sizzling) (crickets chirping) (soft piano, violin music) (van engine rumbles) - [Nicky] Shut the door, Bryan. I had a blue scooter. (metallic thuds) - That can't be the van. None of my business. (metallic thuds) (anxious electronic music) Oh shit, oh my god. Are you okay? Wait, wait. Locked
, fuck, fuck. It's locked. Okay, you need to be quiet or you're gonna get us both caught. One sec. (tense violin music) Damn. - What are you doing? - I, um, I was, um, um- - What are you doing? - I thought I dropped my phone around here. - The one that's in your hand? - Yeah, found it. - You from around here? - Yeah, yeah, my boyfriend and I live up the road. - [Bryan] Your scooter's awesome. - Where is he? He lets you ride here in the middle of the night? - No, I was actually using that scooter
which- - It's really great. - Yeah. I'll be needing it back though. - So what were you doing by my van? - I just was- - Nicky, the van, it's open. - What did you do? - I can ask you the same thing. - You don't understand what you have done. - What I've done? - Oh, oh, she's not here. - Grab your gear. - She's gone. - She's a demon. - What the fuck does that mean, you Jesus freak? - Get the keys and the net too. - Got it. - What, she wasn't a good enough Christian for you? Lord knows we're all g
oing to hell if we're not virgins or we do whatever a man says. I'm calling the cops. - I'd rather you not. - Hey! Are you kidding me? (Adrienne grunts) Shit. - Do you have the bat? - Look, she's a goddamn demon. - [Wilson] Look out! (coughs, sputters) (demon screeches) (tense violin music) (demon roars) (blood squelches) (demon roars) (tense drumbeat) (alternative rock music) - This is all your fault! (Adrienne screams) (demon roars) - You bitch. (demon screeches) (Nicky pants) Forgive me, Fath
er. (demon roars) (blood squelches) (tense violin music) (footsteps crunching) (keys clink) (anxious electronic music) - Yo. Adrienne, where the hell have you been? I've been calling you. I've been looking for you for like two hours. How do you think that makes me feel? - How you feel? - I mean, yeah. (demon growls) - Heston, stop talking. - [Heston] Oh, you want me to stop talking? Who the hell do you think you are? (demon growls) - Stop talking right now, Heston. - No, no, no. - Just- - You th
ink that you are better than me? You are a silly little girl who works in the fucking mall, for Christ's sake. - Stop! Stop talking! Look, I don't know what I ever saw in you but you're not worth it. - Are you dumping me right now? - Yeah. Yeah, I am. Go home, Heston. (Heston scoffs) (tires screech) - Fuck you! (anxious electronic music) (mid tempo electronic music) (crickets chirping)

@ChelseaLupkin

Hey, I’m the writer and director and would love to answer any questions you have about the film! I’m so excited to be back on ALTER with ‘Scooter’ - you might have seen ‘Lucy’s Tale’ a few years back. Big thank you to the cast and crew and to the folks at ALTER for supporting ‘Scooter’. Happy watching!

@sarahkalagvano

Hi there! I’m the producer of 'Scooter', and I'm thrilled to reconnect with the Alter community for another short film. Thanks for watching! Feel free to ask any questions, like how much fried chicken we had to devour to secure that location!

@Winter-aka-Winnie

The beginning was so... familiar. Very accurate. Good job on this! ❤

@quirogatnonerrat3214

The first couple of minutes sure give me flashbacks 😟 This short movie is good!👍🏻

@kirtywright1974

Superb! The acting was top notch. Loved the two young actresses. Her bf was such a narcissistic jerk. Well he’s about to find out how to treat a lady like a lady, and not some side piece! Great work!! Well done to all!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

@14s0cc3r14

The back windows being up with the top down is the most monstrous thing in this video

@martyjones5750

..fabulous..!! Story, dialogue, actors, camera work..fabulous..!! 🤌💪🥰

@mikeyhonnii6197

Bad ass short, that dude had coming... Alter you have some wicked shorts and I love your style...

@ClaudineSnasel

Seriously was in a 3 year relationship with 1 of those. Literally felt like they played out a page in my diary. Proud of her

@jamesmccoysr.3595

Outstanding film!!! My only beef is that the jerk in the convertible didn’t get ripped to shreds.

@artemisnectar7

@orangecountygirl8062

This movie triggered the fuck out of me within 40 seconds . It gave me all the feels, rage, anxiety, suspense and intense gratification when she dumped his ass!

@antoineellis4412

@milodemoray

Well done! Short and sweet, and all the little ducks in a row.
