[MIKE] White, male, 20-30. Quiet, reserved, constantly observant, but with a feral energy
underneath. A cat that hasn’t yet decided whether or not he’s going to pounce. Weathered and
messed up just like his buddies, but with a touch more heart and ambition. He hasn’t given up
hope that his life could still change. LEAD.

[AARON] White, male, 25-35. Magnetic. Always talking his way out of or into whatever he
needs to. A motor mouth full of confidence and bravado. The nihilist leader of the group by way
of age, bitterness and a hint of crazy. A manipulative heartstrings-puller and a bit of a chaos
beast. The world fucked him and he’s going to fuck it right back. LEAD.

[WILL] Any ethnicity, male, 20-30. A completely lovable airhead with a heart of gold. Will shuffles along his life following behind Mike and Aaron, or really anyone who happens to be walking ahead of him. Life just seems to happen to Will. He’s trying to make the most of every
situation he finds himself in; a pregnant girlfriend or a car wash heist, either one he’ll maybe
figure it out. At least he’ll give it a try. SUPPORTING.

Logline: 3 guys in a dead end town with no way out. And now one’s got a baby on the way.
Their target? Bubbles Up. Easy Money. In and out…
It seemed like a good idea before it all went wrong.
