ext. walking dog 2.30pm
Dick is walking the dog in the park. he spots a girl on the other path. he starts looking interestedly at her. as he smiles he walks into a lap post. cuts back to the girl walking off and giggling.
the dog then stops and does a poo. but he forgot to bring carrier bags so he doesn't know what to do. then it plays one of Dicks ideas of what to do. 1. he kicks it away and it hits someone 2. looks around and runs off 3. he steps in it. in the end he finds a stick. tries to pick it up. it doesn't work so he runs away.
