I SPENT A DAY WITH GIA!! (not clickbait)

0:00 - INT. TRAIN CABIN - DAY 

Wide shot of the platform as the train comes to a halt. TOM, TOBY, JACK, and SCOTT step off the train and meet up with GIANNA and WILBUR. 

FILMED SHOT OF FEET WALKING BEFORE PANNING UP TO GIANNA CAMAZZOLA. Gianna smiles, waving to the camera. 

TOM, commanding:
Say hello to Vlog Nation!

GIANNA: 
Hello Vlog Nation?

1:13 - EXT. WALKING THROUGH BRIGHTON - DAY

TOM, TOBY, JACK, SCOTT, WILBUR, GIANNA, and ASH walk through the streets of Brighton toward an arcade. WILBUR leads the line and GIANNA walks side by side with TOM. TOM pesters GIANNA with a series of questions about her life. 

TOM:
Do you have any advice on seducing a woman?

GIANNA:
Are you trying to seduce a particular woman?

TOM:
You.

GIANNA laughs. TOM pans the camera close to his face and winks obnoxiously.

GIANNA:
Sorry, Tom, you're a little young for me. I typically go for older guys.

TOM:
Is Wilbur older than you?

WILBUR:
Tommy, leave Gianna alone. 

SCOTT:
Wilbur is 26...

WILBUR:
Not you too...

1:24 - INT. INSIDE ARCADE - DAY

Bright lights and colours illuminate the shot as TOM, TOBY, JACK, SCOTT, WILBUR, GIANNA, and ASH enter an empty arcade. TOBY and JACK run toward the Skee-Ball machine while ASH and SCOTT start a game of Air Hockey. 

WILBUR, to GIANNA:
Where are we starting? 

GIANNA, pointing: 
I'll whoop your British ass in basketball.

WILBUR:
Oh, you haven't heard.

GIANNA:
What?

WILBUR:
I'm undefeated in the game of hoops.

GIANNA, spinning a ball on her finger:
Maybe amongst you "Yanks", but basketball is born and bred into Canucks. You're going down. 

WILBUR:
Game on.

WILBUR and GIANNA begin a competitive free throw competition. GIANNA pulls into an early lead, landing an easy six. WILBUR, on the other machine, misses more shots than GIANNA but shoots more balls per minute, evening the score. 

The competition grows more and more heated, before ultimately ending in a tie. 

WILBUR:
My ass remains un-whooped. 

GIANNA pokes his red cheek. 

GIANNA:
Your arms basically touch the hoop. It's not fair.
