READERS NOTE
Ross LaMarca and William Bauer share a vision in the city of lights. They discuss their hopes and dreams and decide to take a chance in a town that's known for second chances. They live stories of risk and danger, love lost and found, cross-country moves, and set them to soundtracks that come from the heart.
At the risk of breaking the 4th wall, we'd like to personally invite you to share in these stories and experience it all with us. No need to RSVP, simply follow the words for entry.

This is CINEMA TALK
INT. CASINO - NIGHT
An Old Vegas lounge whispers words of wisdom through bells and whistles. The players who had become one with the machines they're attached to don't realize what's coming next. Smoke fills the room and their lungs, a musk that is somehow calming, reminiscent. Tired eyes, abandoned souls, and hearts that are hanging on by the thinnest of threads scatter the seemingly vibrant hall. The band finishes sound-check in the lounge across from the main gaming floor. They know how lucky they are to be here.
Ross leans over to will and pours him a glass of cheap whiskey.
ROSS
I think you're going to need this tonight.
Will takes the glass.
WILL
You know I hate this stuff.
Ross raises his glass.
ROSS
It's your call.
Will scans his surroundings.
WILL
You’re probably right. Cheers Rocko.
ROSS
Salute Willy.
They both take a drink.
FADE OUT.
