Sweet statutory! (Quickie)

I was going to talk about the floodings in the South, but Justin Bieber just deleted his Instagram account after his Beliebers began harassing the girl whom he "likes." So I knew what I had to address.

Transporting a minor across state lines for illicit purposes is illegal. (Even with parental permission, which I assume she had, because Lionel Richie is the worst father ever. Seriously, his first daughter was a druggie.) And if Bieber isn't having sex with her right now, he will probably have sex with her in the next few weeks. Justin Bieber has become "that guy," though we all suspected that he would.

Meanwhile Selena's reaction is pretty damn weird. Her taunts seem to imply she isn't over that Canadian imp.

Because I am bored, here's a spec I wrote for "Gotham": Carroll

In show business, to show what you can write, you might write a spec for an existing show. I began this spec, called "Carroll," of the TV show Gotham back in spring 2015. Unfortunately I didn't finish it until May of 2016, having tabled it for awhile, so now it's a bit dated. It would've been the second season premiere of the Fox show. I see that the producers will be introducing the Mad Hatter in their own way in season 3, and will also feature a grown-up Ivy. (Apparently Ivy is going to age more than five years in a episode in this forthcoming season, so she will be a sexy coed with the brain of a 13-year-old. And that's not creepy at all!) Pity Clare Foley, though. Imagine being told at 14 that not only do you longer do you work here, but we'll be paying your replacement more than you!

I ended up drawing inspiration from the movie Room, but it's basically a typical story of a grown-up man-child named Jervis Tetch who abducts a young Poison Ivy, so he'll have a friend! Meanwhile, Bruce's investigation into his parents' deaths lead him to Wayne Enterprise's Applied Sciences Division.

Well, I hope you all enjoy it. And if any of you know of a position in a writer's room somewhere...hit me up! My bookies want to be paid!
