Screenwriting : Phillip's metaphor for today :) by Phillip E. Hardy, "The Real Deal"

And if the grease does't work, well....they shoot horses, don't they?

Crystal: What do you think it means?

Crystal: That's pretty good.

Crystal: You can't mess up in this thread. It's not a test... or is it?

FFR: I don't post loglines here. Only metaphors. Loglines would leave me subject to ridicule and disdain.

Crystal: I'm not here to scare you. I'm a friend to all humanity.

I think you meant, "...try not to scare me too badly.." :D

Thanks for not reacting angrily to my edit though your original post sounds more like spoken English in a screenplay. :)

My old hides are constantly getting re-greased.
