INT. VLAD'S ROOM - NIGHT
VLAD and ERICA cruising to snooze land.

ERICA

The gimmick had to do with Thomas Edison.

VLAD

(sung)

Tommy canya hear me ...

ERICA

Yes. Little known fact: the musical Tommy was originally written about Thomas Edison.

VLAD

Yes, I've heard that.

ERICA

They had all these rich producers involved who insisted on creative control and made them change it to pinball. But just imagine if it were a rock opera about Thomas Edison instead.

VLAD

It would have been electrifying.

Erica dives under the covers, GROANS.

VLAD (cont'd)

C'mon.

ERICA

That was rather inventive.

VLAD

It was like a light bulb went on.
