                                                Here's the next script for WEBCAMS.  The title and the premise is borrowed from the unused script for episode 12, but I think this one is much better.  Follow along with the directorial video after the break!
                                                WEBCAMS -- Acts of Tod

                                                TITLES

                                                A
                                                This is not my fault!

                                                B
                                                This is ALL your fault!

                                                A
                                                It's not my fault!

                                                B
                                                Everything was fine until you got involved!

                                                A
                                                You ASKED me to get involved!

                                                B
                                                Well I didn't ask you to completely ruin this for me!  I was THIS close to landing the perfect job and I lost it because of YOU.

                                                A
                                                This is not my FAULT!

                                                B
                                                Oh, this is ALL YOUR FAULT.

                                                C
                                                Whoa, whoa, WHOA.  Guys.  What's going on?

                                                B
                                                He's out to get me.  He's trying to ruin my life and it's WORKING.

                                                A
                                                I have done no such thing and frankly I resent those words.

                                                B
                                                Oh, did I hurt your feelings?  GOOD.  You lost me my perfect job!  How does it feel to get stabbed in the back?!

                                                C
                                                Wow.  There's a lot of hostility in the air here.  

                                                B
                                                (super sarcastic)
                                                Really?  Hostility?  You think?  Maybe because he LOST ME MY PERFECT JOB!

                                                A
                                                THIS IS NOT MY FAULT!

                                                B
                                                Are YOU the one who wrote the recommendation letter?

                                                A
                                                YOU ASKED ME TO!

                                                B
                                                THEN IT'S YOUR FAULT!

                                                A
                                                You're being unreasonable.
                                                (to C)
                                                He's being completely unreasonable.

                                                C
                                                What kind of recommendation letter did you write for him?

                                                A
                                                What kind--a damn good recommendation letter, that's what kind.

                                                C
                                                Well how did he lose the job?

                                                B
                                                Because the damn good recommendation letter WASN'T THAT DAMN GOOD!

                                                A
                                                No-no-no! No, it was good.  I put a lot of work into that letter.

                                                B
                                                Well, sweet mother of irony!  You put a lot of work in the letter and yet SOMEHOW managed to miss the one typo that COMPLETELY RUINED THIS FOR ME!

                                                C
                                                (amused)
                                                Wait a minute, you lost the job because of a TYPO in the recommendation letter??

                                                A
                                                I wrote that his work ethic was such that it would take an act of god for him to miss a day.

                                                C
                                                Well, that doesn't sound so bad.

                                                A
                                                I know!  It was a damn good recommendation letter!

                                                C
                                                So what was the typo?

                                                B
                                                Yeah, BUDDY.  Tell him about the TYPO.

                                                A
                                                It was just a small thing.

                                                C
                                                A small thing?

                                                A
                                                Tiny, really.

                                                B
                                                It was NOT tiny!

                                                C
                                                What the hell was it?

                                                A
                                                It wasn't a big deal!

                                                B
                                                I LOST THE JOB!

                                                C
                                                For crying out loud!

                                                A
                                                I accidentally typed Tod!

                                                C
                                                .... what?

                                                A
                                                When I wrote "acts of god" I accidentally wrote "acts of tod".

                                                C
                                                What, that's it?

                                                B
                                                That's IT?!

                                                A
                                                (shrugs)
                                                That's it.  Almost insignificant.

                                                B
                                                HOW CAN IT BE INSIGNIFICANT?!

                                                C
                                                How could he lose the job over a typo?

                                                A
                                                (shakes head)
                                                I have no idea.

                                                B
                                                This is your fault!

                                                A
                                                This is SO not my fault!

                                                B
                                                This is ALL your fault!

                                                A
                                                Hey, maybe if you weren't trying to land a job with a company so deeply-rooted in right-wing pseudo-christian values, they wouldn't have freaked out over a goddamned typo!

                                                B
                                                Wait a minute ... did you do that on purpose?!  Did you purposely misspell god so I wouldn't get the job?!

                                                A
                                                Oh, come on!  I did no such thing!

                                                C
                                                And the plot thickens ...

                                                B
                                                Do you have any idea what that job PAYED?

                                                A
                                                What it payed?  What it PAYED?  Well, obviously it was enough if you were willing to ignore your moral and ethical values to be part of a company that actively condones ignorance, intolerance, and hate-mongering, all in the name of God! 

                                                B
                                                So you admit it!  You intentionally sabotaged this job for me!

                                                A
                                                It was an honest mistake!

                                                B
                                                But you're pretty damn happy about it!

                                                A
                                                Happy that MAYBE you see these people for what they are?  Damn straight!  That you didn't get a job that pays that much money?  Of course not!

                                                B
                                                (cooling off, but still angry)
                                                ... and it was just a typo?
                                                 
                                                A
                                                Honest to Tod. 

                                                B
                                                Goddammit!
                                                 
                                                C
                                                Don't you mean Tod-dammit?

                                                B
                                                (starts to rage again and then stops)
                                                ... I hate my life.

                                                END

                                                Sorry I sent it so late. My computer was having problems and all the video I saved got glitchy like watching satellite during the heaviest rainstorm. Hope I didn't hold you up too bad.
