4. STORYLINE
With much of the world's population now an undead horde, R is a
young and oddly introspective zombie. While fighting with and
feeding on a human scavenger party, R meets Julie and feels an
urge to protect her. What happens next is the beginning of a
strangely warm relationship that allows R to begin regaining his
humanity. As this change spreads through the local undead
population like a virus, Julie and R eventually have to face a
larger issue when the very nature of their friendship is
challenged. Caught between the paranoid human forces and the
ferocious "Bonies", zombies who are a mutual threat, R and Julie
must find a way to bridge the differences of each side to fight
for a better world no one thought possible. Written by Kenneth

21. SCENE 1
R: No wonder she’s so afraid of me. I need a
different approach. Okay, here we go.
Don‘t be creepy. Don’t be creepy. Don't be creepy.
(R’s approaching Julie, looks very creepy…)
Julie (shivering): What are you doing? Please leave
me alone. (R put a blanket on her) Why me? Why did
you save me?
R: Don’t c---c------cry.
40. (R offered Julie a bottle of Corona)
Julie: Thank you. Oh, my God. Mmm! Oh, man. I can‘t
remember the last time I had a beer. I guess you can’t be
all that bad, Mr. Zombie.
R: (stammering) My name...
Julie: You have a name? What is your name?
R: Rrrrrrrrrrrrrr…
Julie: Rrrr?
R: (talking to himself) This date is not going well. I want to die
all over again.
R: Rrrrrrr…
Julie: Does your name start with “R”? Um… Robert?
Richard? Randy? Raphael? Ricardo? (sigh, give up guessing)
Why don‘t I just call you “R”? I mean, that's a start, right?
R: R...
61. Julia: No, I‘m serious, Nora. I mean, “Corpse” is just… It’s just a stupid
name that we came up with for a state of being that we don‘t
understand. Nora: Yeah. Julia: (SIGHS) Oh, my God! What is wrong with
me? Okay. I’ve got to tell you something. This is kind of weird. Please do
not freak out. But I actually miss him. Nora: You... You miss him???? Julia:
I know, it‘s so stupid. Nora: Like you’re attracted to him???? Julia: No, I
don‘t… Nora: Like he could be your boyfriend? Your zombie boyfriend!!? I
mean, I know it’s really hard to meet guys right now with the apocalypse
and stuff, trust me. And look, I know that you miss Perry. Okay? But, Julie,
this is weird. Like, I wish the Internet was still working so I could just look
up whatever it is that‘s wrong with you. Julia: Shut up. All right. Okay. I’m
getting ready for bed. Nora: Hey. I‘m glad you’re back. Julia: Yeah. Nora:
Have sweet dreams about your zombie ~~~

Julie: R? R: Yeah? Julie: Do you remember your name
yet? R: No. Julie: Well, you know, you could just give
yourself one. Just pick one. Whatever you want. R: I like
“R.” Julie: Really? You don‘t want to know what it was? You
don’t want your old life back? R: No. I want this
one. Julie:(SIGHS) Just "R," huh?
R: Just "R."
