Now it’s Katie’s turn to be SUPER-ENERGIZED with IDEAS-A-FLO-ING. A timely visitor lets her HEAR OUT LOUD what’s been pinging in her head. Onto something? Perhaps. Let’s Listen in… —The Gang
Let us begin, shall we ??
And so it happened that the discussion former Suit KATIE had with her Trail Pal, KEE-RA found its way into her imagination — stimulating more ideas. As his Human, MEREDITH had gone all in on something called DRAGONBUSTRs ToGo, she started pondering true implementation on her WEBSITE… facilitating access to…
FADE IN:
INT. KATIE’S HOME OFFICE
Katie is standing at her workstation and “mousing” like crazy to a beat that nobody can hear…
That being said, she was being observed by her pal, RC THE GREMLIN who has been doing his best to stay silent, but curiosity triggered an over-ride. Quietly, he moves closer to study her screen.
RC THE GREMLIN
Cantina? Like … Star Wars…?
A smile comes across Katie’s face as she turns in the direction of the voice.
KATIE
Been here the whole time…?
RC THE GREMLIN
Uh… Just popped in… and did NOT want to muck with the FLO, but… You’re onto something, I think…
Smiling again, she picks up her TRIGGER MUG and motions towards the door.
Trigger Mug…
RC follows her out.
DISSOLVE TO:
INT. KATIE’S KITCHEN
They are now enjoying their coffee. RC has a huge… inviting look on his face… doing the best to encourage her to divulge what she’s up to without pummeling her with questions.
KATIE
You got that look… ‘K so here goes… Told you, did I about the DRAGONBUSTRs ToGo idea…?
RC shakes his head.
RC THE GREMLIN
Actually… Let’s just go fresh as I’ve been bouncing around… you know got the CINEMA prOject and…
KATIE
Cinema?! … Oh shoot. I owe… put on … remind me to check my PAK as I had ideas I jotted down…
RC THE GREMLIN
Will do… Now this ToGo thing?
KATIE
Seems Kee-Ra’s human has imagined up … involves a food trailer… looks like a Vanagon… for taking… DragonBustRs to … the people…

RC THE GREMLIN
Oh… Like a Dash? A DBRs Dash?
KATIE
Okay… Sure… that works. Anyway, it got me thinking of… just normal fulfillment … in the world of AMAZON BUY IT NOW, how can we make those SATCHEL-PAKs and SATCHEL-POUCHes accessible?
Katie’s Ponderable…
RC nods and motions for her to continue.
KATIE
Got my WEB GURU working on the commerce … E-COMMERCE side of things … the logistics and implementation and he built me a framework… but…
A frown-y face takes over as Katie thinks about it.
KATIE
Something… not quite right but I couldn’t put my…
RC THE GREMLIN
Ah… So you did what you do… and back-burnered a bit…
KATIE
Set the wheels in motion and let it incubate as… you know me… lots of movement took place. HD and runs and walkabouts and more runs and… then…
She motions for him to follow her upstairs.
DISSOLVE TO:
INT. KATIE’S HOME OFFICE
On her desk is a legal sized sheet of paper, that she shows him.
KATIE
I came back from my run and quickly scribbled this down…
Movement inspired…
RC studies while reading out loud.
RC THE GREMLIN
JEDEMI CANTINA: Home of the FLEX-N-FLO Kits… the DBRs FLEX-N-FLO Kits…
KATIE
Want to facilitate distribution… So keeping with the SHOPIFY store setup, I … well… the gateway needs to be MY site… JEDEMI. Put a CANTINA tab on the menu and make it all encompassing. See?
So Katie flips through the slides she was building of the different offerings … in the CANTINA.
Pondering Cantina offerings…
RC’s eyes enlarge as he takes it all in…
RC THE GREMLIN
Wow! Amazing…!
KATIE
Right… Now check this out…
She clicks another area on her screen and then hits PLAY…
RC starts laughing.
KATIE
Can’t get it out of my head but yeah… it fits this EDM version too!
[The STAR WARS CANTINA band song has been playing.]
RC THE GREMLIN
So… The PAKs outsourced to SHOPIFY, curated books… links out to AMAZON… The… what’s that…?
KATIE
A place holder for SWAG… like stickers and magnets…
Magnets on tap…
RC THE GREMLIN
Like for DUCKIN’ 2.0?
KATIE
Yes, and…
She laughs.
KATIE
That one is… revving up… Line extending… our KIMBA has ideas…
RC THE GREMLIN
Our mutual pal, MR SQUEEK, will like this development…
Referring to WONDER / WANDER (WANDER / WONDER) Kat.
KATIE
Seen him lately?
RC THE GREMLIN
He gets around… all over…
KATIE
O…M…G…! Stop that… it’ll ruin my…
Motioning rewind, RC then returns to the topic at hand. Pointing at the screen.
RC THE GREMLIN
So your Cantina is like a mini-mall with lots of options… leveraging affiliate links… SM? RB?
KATIE
Sticker Mule and Red Bubble … investigating… but yeah. Haven’t settled on a shirt / hoodie vendor, but yeah… there will be MERCH in the form of wearables…
All the cool kids are doing it!
She laughs.
RC THE GREMLIN
So build the Cantina and keep adding… Gotcha!
KATIE
Yup! Want to share with MER… Maybe grab her for a WESTSIDE day.
RC pauses to ponder, before commenting.
RC THE GREMLIN
She’s … Based on what Kee-Ra told you, I imagine she’ll have a SHOW-N-TELL of her own.
KATIE
Pending her client load, but yeah.
She pauses to ponder, and then continues.
KATIE
So… help me out some more, if you don’t mind.
Some more? What’d I do?
RC THE GREMLIN
Some more? What’d I do?
KATIE
You showed up JIT when I … needed to hear myself describe… what was pinging around in my head… My IDEAS.
RC THE GREMLIN
Ah! Just In Time, I was… DING! ? Perhaps?
Katie makes the DING! sign — thumb on top of head with pinky pointing skyward.
KATIE
You… today… It’s kinda what I do at HD. DIYers come in with something they’re trying to accomplish… And THEY need to TALK IT OUT… I’m a good listener and … of course, I can take them wherever they need to go in the store to gather up the pieces to their puzzle… It’s WAY FUN!
RC THE GREMLIN
I’m an ACTING HD associate this day?
Big smile and she laughs.
You’re MY RC! And… That’s WAY WAY BETTER!
My RC!
KATIE
Nah! You’re MY RC! And… That’s WAY WAY BETTER!
RC takes a bow.
RC THE GREMLIN
Aww… Thanks, Lady Katie. BTW… Is my work here done? Can I …
Motions with his hands like “AIR QUOTES”.
RC THE GREMLIN
Clock out for the day??
KATIE
One more thing, if you don’t mind.
She points to the screen…
KATIE
For my Meredith TEXT… Which slide should I…?
RC THE GREMLIN
Grab… That one… That’ll do it.
KATIE
Cool and Coolio, my friend.
She fist bumps him. And he is eyeing her.
RC THE GREMLIN
You got THAT LOOK…
KATIE
Oh… You can tell I’m in MOVE-IT, MOVE-IT mode?
RC THE GREMLIN
Know you well, I do…
KATIE
Yup… Time to SWITCH GEARS… Shift my brain.
She makes the MIC DROP / PENCIL’S DOWN motion.
RC THE GREMLIN
Gotcha!
Just then the garage door opening can be heard.
RC THE GREMLIN
Ah! How’s that for timing?
KATIE
Boy home… Woo hoo! It’s honey do time…
He frowns.
KATIE
Come on now, you… know that there’s always a beer chaser…
RC THE GREMLIN
Just foolin’ with ya. Say “Hi!” to GEAR GUY for me… (pauses).
Oh… there’s one more thing: Note to Lady Katie…
He scribbles on a POST-IT nearby.
POST-IT
Get Cinema Recs to The Gang.
Katie nods and they both go their separate ways.
FADE OUT.
Getting interesting, right?
Well this Cantina idea… A coming attraction for sure.
As is… Big Screen editions of immersive films. If only Katie could remember…
She jotted them down on NAPKINS right? But where are…?
STAY TUNED!
That’s a Wrap!
