18 [====== SCENE EIGHTEEN ======] 18
CLOSE-UP OF HUNTER ONSTAGE
HUNTER
Hello, attention, everyone. Hello! Major star speaking here, hello!
Still no response from the crowd. Hunter needs to get their attention quick, so she bangs the microphone against her forehead hard. It does not occur to her that she could have easily hit the mic on the floor, nor does it occur to her that now there will be a large red spot on her forehead.
HUNTER
(continuing)
Okay. Now that I have everyone's attention, I have a little surprise for everyone. All right, Chuck! Hit it!
18B === WIDE SHOT FROM BELOW === 18B
Hundreds of sheets of paper gently fall from above the party-goers as Hunter explains--
18C === CLOSE-UP OF HUNTER === 18C
HUNTER
What you see falling in front of you are copies of the actual tabloaid story of how Miss Doherty fired from 90210. You will note that the story does not include MY side of the story. No. Of course, it doesn't. Aarron Spelling would never let you know what he told me when I was in his office.
Shannen, now enraged, quickly approaches Hunter onstage.
HUNTER
Whoa, Doherty! Hold it right there. If you take one more step, you know I'll take over your job here, too. **
Shannen stops.
HUNTER
That's right, everyone. The tabloids were wrong when they said that Shannen demanded more money from her boss. What Aarron Spelling doesn't want you to know is that he told me that Shannen was going to be fired to make way for some real talent, his new star--ME! Unfortunately for him, he did not offer me enough money, so I told him to contact me when he wanted to offer me some REAL money.
Shannen stands there with her arms folded. She is fuming, but keeps her composure. She decides to try a bluff.
SHANNEN
Is this the best you can do, Hunter? I might be upset over this if it were someone else, but YOU'RE NOT WORTH IT!
A slow smile forms on Hunter's face. Shannen's eyes give away the fact she is about to explode. Hunter licks her lips, ready to move in for the kill. Hunter reaches into the box she had the Bouncer watch earlier. She pulls out a 90210 Brenda Walsh doll attatched to its stand. The stand is connected to the doll just under the doll's pelvis.

HUNTER
(now smiling broadly)
Oh, look what I found. It's a Shannen Doherty doll. And what do ya know? It's just like you, too, Shannen. Look! It's got a stick up its butt just like you do.
Hunter points to the spot that the stand connects to the doll. A hush comes over the crowd. Shannen stands there a moment, stunned into silence. One of the party goers calls out to Hunter.
PARTY GOER 1
Hey, Hunter! Catch!
The party goer throws a cupcake at Hunter, but it hits Shannen in the face instead! THAT was enough for Shannen!
SHANNEN
You hefty bag of trash!
Shannen dives at Hunter and they both fly off the stage and crash into one of the refreshment tables nearby. Then, ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE and the dance erupts into a monsterous food fight! Quentin tries to impress Alyssa Milano by standing on one of the tables and spraying people with his water pistol. He is immediately bombarded with food projectiles. The band reclaims the stage and begins to play some more songs as the food fight continues...

CUT TO:
** NOTE: This was written as an inside joke. When Shannen Doherty left Charmed, Irene Molloy (the actress who portrays Hunter) was actually up for the role to replace Shannen, at least until Rose McGowen was cast as Shannen's replacement.
