EXT. SANTA MONICA COURTHOUSE - DAY
BRUCE FINK, 38 overweight and coffee-stained, shuffles up the courthouse steps fifteen minutes late for his own divorce proceedings, in keeping with his soon-to-be-ex-wife's expectations.
High atop the steps, KAREN stands with her lawyer, arms akimbo.
KAREN
You look like shit.
BRUCE
Sorry I'm late.
KAREN
What happened to the nice pants I bought you?
BRUCE
I had to have the waist taken out.
KAREN
Is that waist with an 'I' or an 'E'.
BRUCE
Fuck you, Karen.
