Huff

TheCentralScrutinizer · 04 Jul 07 :: 17:45

I don't really want him to be "despicable" (please no rape or torture, ever), but darker is cool.

domesticelefant · 04 Jul 07 :: 17:46

Yeah, it would be really cool to see him as the bad guy once.

silvia · 04 Jul 07 :: 19:00

totally i agree!!

TeeJay · 08 Jul 07 :: 17:07

We once typed out James's dialogue on Melissa's board, so let me bring that over from that old, dusty message board. Warning, foul language in this!

Episode 2x04:

James tackles Byrd from behind.
Byrd: Jesus.
James: Who the f*ck are you?
Byrd: Uhm, I think we have a misunderstand--
James: Yeah?
Byrd: Yeah.
James: Okay, well, this better be good, asswipe, or I'm calling the cops.

On the couch:
James: So you don't steal anything?
Byrd: Never.
James: So why the f*ck do you do it?
Byrd: It's hard to explain. It's like I get curious about how people live. Or what they live for, I guess.
James: So what does my family live for?
Byrd: Uhm, I'm not sure, actually. Like, I do know that your parents collect artefacts from all over the world. And they never have time to cook. Uhm, your mom always has to do, like, three things at once and she's a really nervous driver.
James: You can tell all that just by our stuff?
Byrd: That, and I hid in the bushes while your mom drove away.
James: You are a weird f*cker, Byrd. Your family got any secrets?
Byrd: Uhm, my uncle is schizophrenic. Uhm, one day he tried to strangle my grandmother because he thought she was gonna have him locked up.
James: Did she?
Byrd: Yeah. After he tried to kill her. It's really sad, though, because if you ever met him, you would think he's the coolest guy. Like he wasn't crazy at all.
James: I'd like to meet him.

At Teddy's place:
Byrd: Teddy. Hey.
Teddy: Hey, Byrd.
Byrd: This is my friend James. James, this is my uncle Teddy. I just thought we'd stop by and say hi.
Teddy: Hi. (studies James) You look familiar.
James: Really? Well, I don't come here often and, you know, I'm sure a million guys look like me.
Teddy: I saw you the other day. The other day I was moving in, and I dropped a box and you pretended not to see. You didn't offer to help, but I knew you were there. The whole time. I bet your boss didn't think I'd remember.
Byrd: Teddy, I don't know, man. I don't think James even has a job.
Teddy: I wanna hear it from James.
James: Yeah, I do. I didn't mention it before, Byrd, because, uh, well, my job's classified.
Teddy: And why is it classified, James? Tell your new friend Byrdie here about the work.
James: I'm just a low-level insurgent, okay? I don't really--
Teddy: Admit it! Your boss is out of time and that's why you're out here, recruiting children. That's why you put cameras in my room, but you know I have a problem with what you're doing!
James: Yeah. Because of the children.
Byrd: What children?
Teddy: Recruiting children. Because of their small fingers. It's safer and less of a chance of collateral damage. Isn't that right, James?
James: You know, you didn't hear it from me.
Teddy: (grabs James' arm) You're an imposter! I bet your name isn't even really James. I am on to you!
Byrd: Teddy!
Teddy: And your boss. What is-- What did you do? Did you change the plan? Huh? Did you change the date?
Byrd: Whoa, Teddy!
Guy from Teddy's house: You two better hit the road.
Teddy: (holds up James' lighter) I am hanging onto this. For your DNA.
Byrd: Come on.
James and Byrd leave.

Episode 2x10:

Byrd: Look, I asked you never to do it again, all right? And you ignored me and did it anyway, and that's pretty f*cked, don't you think?
James: It's definitely f*cked.
Byrd: So why did you do it?
James: Phffffffff. It was too easy not to.
Byrd: Man, you broke into my uncle Teddy's place, that's not cool.
James: He's a schizoid, Tweety Pie, don't worry. Who cares?
Byrd: (shoves James) I care, all right? He's my uncle!
James: Why am I not surprised you're a shover?
Byrd: Listen. Dude. I asked you to lay off and you didn't lay off. If you asked me to lay off and I didn't lay off, you'd shred my ass in, like, fifty different ways.
James: That's right.
Byrd: So, what do you think I should do to you?
James: You're amazing, Byrd. First of all, you have a really stupid name. Second of all, you wouldn't do shit to me.
Byrd: Why not?
James: Why not?! Because however you f*cked me, I would come back at you tenfold. It is biblical what I would do to you.
Byrd: Okay, look, man. You f*ck with my uncle again, we'll just see how far I'll go.
James: Is that a challenge, or is that a warning?
Byrd: It's information. No more, no less.
James: (repeating) Information.

Episode 2x11:

Beth, Izzy and Byrd in the kitchen:
Beth: Hey, I thought you left already.
Byrd: Yeah, I know, I'm going.
Beth: Oh, listen, if you want you can invite someone to dinner tonight.
Byrd: No, Ely and I have this huge science test tomorrow. So we're probably gonna be studying all night.
Beth: Well, you still need to eat, Byrd.
Byrd: I know, so we're gonna go grab something and then go to the library.
Izzy: Oh, honey. Libraries are nothing but holding cells for homely bookish women. You need a nurturing environment, somewhere to soothe and trigger that fine mind of yours. How about studying at my guest house?
Byrd: You know, that is a really great idea, gram. Thank you very much.

James gets tortured:
James: Ely. Hey, Ely.
Ely and Byrd capture him.
James: What the f*ck? What the f*ck are you doing?
Byrd: You go lock the door, we only have two hours.
James: Get the f*ck off of me!! You're crazy!!
Ely: I said shut the f*ck up!
James: I will kill you!!

Byrd: You have f*cked with us enough. Okay? So now it's your turn to see what it feels like.
James squirms.
Byrd: Are you scared, man? Good. Because we are through, taking your shit, all right? No more f*cking dead rats, no more f*cking with me or my uncle, all right? Listen to me. It's time for you to apologize and make amends. Do you think you can do that?
James nods.
Byrd: Good. Let's hear it.
James spits Byrd in the face.
Byrd: (starts beating James) You f*ckin' piece o' shit! You f*ck with me, f*cking ratboy, you f*cking--
Ely: Stop! Stop, Byrd, chill!

Ely: Shit. Shit, man. I really think you hurt him.
Byrd: Dude, he f*ckin' deserves it for all the shit that he's done.
Ely: What the f*ck is wrong with you, man?! You said we were just gonna scare him a little. Make him squirm. James. James, are you okay? Can you hear me? F*ck. You want your grandma to come home and f*cking see this?
Byrd: Shit. James, dude, wake up. James, wake up, man. Come on.
James: No more, please, no more.

Izzy comes home:
Byrd: Hi grandma, how was dinner?
Izzy: Hello darling. Well, it was almost cultural. Unfortunately ruined by an inebriated loud-mouth trainwreck dressed in Prada.
Byrd: Natalie?
Izzy: Yuck. Why your mother was ever friends with her, I will never know. I trust your evening was less eventful.
Byrd: Yeah, it was pretty dull and we just studied and stuff.
Ely: Got a lot of work done, thanks for letting us use your place.
Byrd: Yeah, thanks again, grandma.
Izzy: Oh darling, of course. You know I'm here to help.
Byrd: Good night.
Izzy: Sleep tight. Bye Ely. Little angels.

And this is a scene from a later episode that doesn't have James in it, but that kinda is about him:

Teddy: Hey, Byrdie, I'm having lunch with your dad later. (sees his journal in Byrd's hands) F*ck, Byrd. Where'd you get that?
Byrd: Uhm, James took it. Look, Teddy, I'm really sorry. I know it's probably my fault, and I know I never should have brought him here. I just really didn't know him, I didn't know what a derelict douche bag he is.
Teddy: You played right into his hand, Byrd. You led him here, and now he knows everything. He knows the plan.
Byrd: Teddy. Trust me. You don't have to worry about that. I took care of him. James Cullen won't bother you anymore.
Teddy: You think I'm worried about f*cking James? That kid's not bright enough to decipher the code. Trust me.
Byrd: Teddy, I promise, he's not gonna do any--
Teddy: (yells at Byrd) I don't wanna hear about that f*cking kid!
Byrd just stares at Teddy, stunned.
Teddy: Look, it doesn't matter. He'd have found me anyway.
Byrd: Okay. (wants to put the journal on the table)
Teddy: No! You can't... It's contaminated.
Byrd: Teddy, look. I am really sorry, and he's very sorry. I... I don't... I just... I...
Teddy: I told you not to talk about him! Byrdie. Get rid of that f*cking thing. Just bury it. Or burn it.
Byrd: I'm... I'm sorry.
Teddy: Just get rid of it. And don't tell another soul. I'm trying to protect you, Byrdie!
And he chases an intimidated Byrd away.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 09 Jul 07 :: 02:23

...mussy hair, clothes that look like they were slept in. Sigh.

deedee · 09 Jul 07 :: 02:57

rugged... angry.... deeply disturbed. oh how i love it. i know this sounds wierd but i think he could play a like murderer like a crazy one and get away with it in a film.. kind of like.. physco.. u know i think hed b good in that. he just does such a good job with james.. hahah he always looks so pissed off in like every screen cap!
" why am i not surprized ur a shover"

TheCentralScrutinizer · 09 Jul 07 :: 04:31

I have an old serial killer story I'm thinking of resurrecting as a screenplay for Chris, actually. I know he could pull off this character I had in mind with amazing aplomb.

deedee · 09 Jul 07 :: 04:41

is it based on actual events. pss im a huge cold case file/murder reader fan.. /teevee fan. but yah i ono in huff hes so dark. i think they really should had brought his character back for a few more episodes..

TheCentralScrutinizer · 09 Jul 07 :: 06:05

He would've come back if the show hadn't been canceled. No, my story is not based on true events. Just an idea I cooked up. Been writing unsold novels and screenplays since I was about 16.

notsofairytale · 05 Jan 08 :: 05:15

Wow, Teejay! Thanks for posting the transcript, and thanks again (and you, Deb!) for the pics. I really liked the episodes. Chris did a great job (as always). I love his darker roles.

TheFutureMrsEliBrooks · 07 Sep 09 :: 05:24

WOW....just.... WOW.... INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE!!!! *claps and cheers and whistles* Yeah... that was definitely... different.. BUT AMAZING!!! He IS AWESOME at playing dark bad boy roles... and Chris all tied up... mmmm *giggles* But it was VERY WEIRD hearing his character say the name "Eli".... I am so used to him being Eli that that name coming out of his mouth was... like whoa. Nifty! TeeJay... do you have actual copies of these episodes on disc or file that you can send to me so I can have them on my computer? If you do I would REALLY appreciate having them...

~Mrs.Brooks~

TeeJay · 07 Sep 09 :: 09:00

Season two of Huff was never released on DVD, at least not that I'm aware of. I have the episodes with Chris as DivX AVIs, if that tells you anything. Can you play those?

-TeeJay

TheFutureMrsEliBrooks · 07 Sep 09 :: 09:42

YES! I so totally can hehehe send them as soon as you can get around to it. Just send em on in to my e mail addy. THANK YOU TEEJAY in advance!!!

~Mrs.Brooks~

TeeJay · 07 Sep 09 :: 12:35

E-mail? Uhm, I'd rather send them by post on a DVD, they're 350 MB each. Can you e-mail me your snail mail address?

-TeeJay

TheFutureMrsEliBrooks · 07 Sep 09 :: 14:43

Sure thing. Done and done. :] THANK YOU TEEJAY!!!!

~Mrs.Brooks - IS SUPER EXCITED NOW!!~

TheCentralScrutinizer · 13 Dec 09 :: 09:45

:alarm:

Thanks to my new boss at my new job, I've discovered ninjavideo.net. You can watch lots of great TV shows there, fullscreen, in perfect quality. Including both seasons of Huff!!!

TeeJay · 13 Dec 09 :: 11:42

Sounds great, thanks for the link. Except... I don't see anything for Huff except episodes 1x10 and 1x13, the list for season 2 is empty. I've never seen the show from the beginning, so I was getting a little excited there for a minute. Recent shows are very up to date, though. And they have all episodes of The Unusuals. Definitely a good site to bookmark.

-TeeJay

TheCentralScrutinizer · 13 Dec 09 :: 21:07

Damn, I confess I didn't look that closely. I was trying to catch up on Friday Night Lights. Whoever was uploading those to EZTV just stopped after ep 4. My boss mentioned Ninjavideo at the holiday party, said she watched New Moon and 2012 there. I took a look at New Moon last night and the quality is crap. But the TV shows look great. I ended up watching a couple of Angel eps last night too, after FNL.

TeeJay · 13 Dec 09 :: 21:10

The site doesn't seem to be perfect, the CSI episode I tried to watch would go on past 35 or so minutes, but one of the alternative links worked in the end. The New Moon copy there was probably something someone filmed off the theater screen. Those are usually crap quality. Best wait until the DVD is out, then you get good quality DVD rips.

TheFutureMrsEliBrooks · 15 Dec 09 :: 22:18

sounds like an awesome site! another wicked site to check out for movies and such is www.movie-forumz.org. its completely free and i use it ALL the time when bored and needing some new movie material to memorize, enjoy, and quote. XD
its free and as soon as you get to the main page there is a little search bar in the top right corner where you can look up movies by title. they even have movies posted up there that are in theaters or havent even been released yet to theaters. You need the DivX player thingy in order for it to work for you tho but they provide a download for it on that site in case you dont have it. also... you can browse movies by the year they came out or use the search if you know the title. And try to only click on the movie choices that shows the little blue 'X' for DivX as a symbol next to the movie title or the one with the picture of the webcam or the black box with words in it.... the other ones are usually crap. the one with the lil yellow button and the M on it sucks cuz its MEGAVIDEO share file and that site only lets you watch like.,.. the first 40 min of it or so before cutting you off and telling you to come back in another 24 hours to watch more... -.-*

Ive found all kinds of goodies on this site to watch... ENJOY!!!

~Mrs.Brooks - cuz movies are even better... when they are FREE to watch~

TheCentralScrutinizer · 16 Dec 09 :: 00:35

TeeJay, you can't watch anything on Ninjavideo when you have a chat screen open. For instance, Facebook. If you're watching a show or something on Ninjavideo and you get a chat notification, it will stop your video. I learned this the hard way, trying to watch Friday Night Lights.

(BTW, Thea, if you read this, that's why I bailed out of Facebook as soon as I got the chat notification from you Saturday night. I was in the middle of my favorite show and you killed it! Grr! LOL! Sorry about that.)

Once I bailed from Facebook, I had no more issues. In fact, I'm currently watching the original "V" on the site. I have been for three days now, just pausing it, and I've never lost the video, even when I hibernate my computer. But I betcha if I get a chat notification from Facebook, it'll stop again...

BiggestChrisMarquetteFan · 16 Dec 09 :: 04:42

That sounds like an awesome site, Breezer! I am looking at it right now.
