The Bent Dick Squad (The Complete Screenplay .pdf)
by Angel Dean Lopez
Roadside bombs. Sniper fire. Suicidal martyrs. Mob violence. Peace-keeping can cause post-traumatic stress syndrome, especially when you’re a cop on patrol in urban America. No one understands this better than a police psychologist. But to counsel “good cops gone bad,” a shrink needs to be a bit bent. What’s so bad about peace, love, and understanding? Nothing, if revenge is served first.

Cleansed (The Complete Screenplay .pdf)
by Ahmed Lavalais
Sometimes discipline isn’t enough. Sometimes love don’t cut it. The sanctuary might be called Hope Juvenile Rehabilitation Center, but money can’t buy recovery. Despite privileged backgrounds, these adolescent drug addicts are streetwise. Who can condemn their counselors for giving in to despair? Yet wealth can help arrange the quick fix, either through a needle or bureaucratic paper trail. Only your guidance counselor knows for sure … because he’s losing his grip.

The Georgie Duffman Show (The Complete Screenplay .pdf)
by Rob Fresco
Go on, laugh at the McCarthy Era. It’s the 1950s, and a hit sitcom—think The Honeymooners or The Adventures of Ozzie & Harriet—has a few government observors in the studio audience. But if there’s truly a red menace, it’s the star portraying a lovable dad on-camera while acting behind-the-scenes like a bull in rut. Father knows best? Are you now or have you ever been a womanizer?

Square One (The Complete Screenplay .pdf)
by Heather E. Ash
The federal government’s Witness Protection Program is on a tight budget. For example, Megan (not her real name). Cost-cutting has her employed by Wal-Mart, despite university degrees in the sciences. She’s a fugitive from injustice, and the latest pawn in the Justice Department’s trial of an international drug cartel. So what if she had to flee her fiancé, parents, friends, and personal history? Otherwise, she’d be dead—just like all the other government pawns. In the Witness Protection Program, no one can hear you scream.

Twisted (The Complete Screenplay .pdf)
by Laura J. Burns & Melinda Metz
Some like it hot. Take The Brady Bunch, mix in a Jewish/WASP collision of opposites from a multi-faith marriage, stir in old-fashioned romance, spouse swap, add gossip, then bake into a farcical TV dinner. Who said you can’t go home again? They were wrong—you can, just stay in a hotel.
