                           BLIND BROTHER DEX (CONT'D)
                    (speaking)
               Here I go!

     MCU: Blind B.D. inhales loudly and deeply, then holds his 
     breath. As The Dogs continue through an instrumental last 
     verse, 0.S., harmonica lead, Blind B.D. emits grunting sounds 
     that attest to the difficulty in trying to hold one’s breath 
     for 12 bars.  S/FX: BLIND B.D.’S FACE STARTS TURNING BLUE.

                           BLIND BROTHER DEX (CONT'D)
                    (grunting for 4 bars, 
                    still holding breath)

     BLIND B.D. AND HARPO OTS, FEATURING AUDIENCE: The Regulars 
     move from absorption to astonishment. As Harpo continues 
     playing lead, he turns toward Blind B.D.  Blind B.D. turns 
     to Harpo, revealing his profile.  S/FX: BLUER STILL!

                           BLIND BROTHER DEX (CONT'D)
                    (off-mic, grunting 
                    for 4 more bars, 
                    still holding)

     MCU: Blind B.D. faces the audience. S/FX: HIS FACE PROGRESSES 
     TO 100% BLUE, PASSES THE SATURATION POINT, THEN BEGINS TO 
     RADIATE A BLUE AURA!

                           BLIND BROTHER DEX (CONT'D)
                    (on-mic, grunting for 
                    last 4 bars, still 
                    holding)

     FOUR-SHOT: The Dogs conclude. Blind B.D. starts gasping for 
     air. S/FX: ULTRA BLUE!

                           BLIND BROTHER DEX (CONT'D)
                    (Frantically gasping, 
                    sputtering, and 
                    coughing)

     COVER SHOT: Blind B.D. stands, hands his guitar to Harpo, 
     takes a bow, then passes out and crashes to the floor. S/FX: 
     STILL BLUE! No one moves and no one makes a sound. Beat, 
     beat, beat. Then the Regulars all jump to their feet in 
     unison, wildly euphoric. They applaud thunderously; they 
     cheer without restraint.  The Seeing-Eye Dogs smile, nod, 
     wave, and play a few riffs. Blind B.D. remains unconscious 
     (...to this very day, or so I’ve been told).

                                               SLOW FADE TO BLUE:

                               THE END
