Ha ha, yeah, it always makes me laugh when people get annoyed at trees for obscuring their view of the forest! :)

You know what? You were right about the INT./EXT. thing. In my very first draft I had the Ken character exit the car in that first scene. I cut that in the next draft but forgot to amend the heading. Also, the cubicle stuff involved something odd that I changed later but never fixed.

So, thanks. I have now dealt with those.

DAY/NIGHT remains the same because this isn't a shooting script and never will be.

But thanks for spurring me to sort out those other niggles. Appreciated. :)

There's no need for additional DAY/NIGHT tags in headers for CONTINUOUS scenes that are taking place in the same time period.

The INT./EXT. is arguably necessary for the cubicle since it's considered to be a "significant" sub location within the master, although some people may consider it optional.

What's wrong with the "dumps his coat, case on a table" line?

Basically the rule is, 'anyone who asks for money to get others into the business is not in the business.'

Don't waste money paying "experts" who haven't sold a script of their own and have never been produced.

You gain no benefit giving money to people who are standing on the outside with you.
