still stalling

I've summarized (or "treated") up to page 71 of this 90 page script, but it's slow going. I think this thing is supposed to be about five pages long, but I'm still on the first page! Maybe I'm missing stuff. I know I left out a lot of the subplots and all of the minor characters. How much of that crap am I supposed to leave in?

For those of you who care, a treatment isn't just a dry summary. It's supposed to be written as entertaining and intense as me sitting in front of an exec and talking about it. Still, I think I'll have to find better ways to say "grab-ass" and "slapped the shit out of".

Okay. No more games. I'm getting back to work.
