And now... a scene written by Arden inspired by this photo from Zodiac:


In the following scene, Jake Gyllenhaal will be playing "Jake" and Mark Ruffalo will be playing the part of "Mark":

MARK: I cannot believe you did this to me!

JAKE: Calm down! We are in a public place.

MARK: I don't care who hears me. If I were ten years younger I could have done it. And I'd be going toe to toe with Philip Seymour Hoffman for an Oscar. But no... NO! You had to be the bottom. YOU JUST HAD TO BE THE BOTTOM!

JAKE: Mark! I had nothing to do with it! Ang said you just weren't gay enough.

MARK: NO ONE IS GAYER THAN I AM! I'm a wearing a bowtie right now!

JAKE: I hate it when you yell. It makes me feel inferior when I'm the one who's more famous.

MARK: A BOW TIE!

JAKE: You have to stop with this resentment. I love you.

MARK: No, you steal from me. I was doing that furrowed-brow-stoner-charm-mistake-the-blank-expression-for-mystery thing BEFORE YOU WERE BORN! And, you know what? I fucked Kirsten during Eternal Sunshine.

JAKE: THAT'S A LIE!

MARK: (starts crying) No. It's... it's true.

JAKE: Don't lie. You're only hurting yourself.

MARK: No... it's true I totally fucked her.

Cut To: Love scene in shower. Jake has the loofah. You do the rest.
