RAFAEL NADAL steps up to the baseline to serve as the crowd quiets... He SLICES a SERVE out wide, the opponent returns the ball cross court and Nadal WHIPS a FOREHAND down the line for a clean winner -- COMMENTATOR (V.O.) And he’s done it! Rafael Nadal wins the Monte Carlo Masters! Nadal falls onto his back, making a snow angel in the red clay as the CROWD ERUPTS in THUNDEROUS CHEERING!!! COMMENTATOR (V.O.) Another title for one of the greatest athletes to ever live!! An INSTAGRAM NOTIFICATION ICON pops up in the bottom right corner of the screen and a FINGER moves into frame to CLICK ON IT. We now realize we’re looking at a PHONE. The finger scrolls through comments on his own profile -- “HAHAHAHAAHA CHOKER” “I lost my house because of you” “Quit already, you’re embarrassing” “PRAYING YOU FUCKING DIE YOU CUNT” DING -- a TEXT appears at the top of the screen from “MOM” that reads “I’m outside.” Off the sound of a TOILET FLUSH -- INT. BATHROOM STALL - LAGUARDIA AIRPORT, NY - DAY Beneath the phone we see long black socks, Jordan sandals and sweatpants. The camera SPINS AROUND to reveal MARCUS HART, 30, ruggedly handsome, with a GOLD CHAIN tucked into his HOODIE and HEADPHONES over his ears.
