The Upgrade: A Cautionary Tale Of A Life Without Reservations - Plot & Excerpts
FADE IN … PAUL (VO) “We were somewhere outside Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when I pulled over to update my Facebook status. I remember Michael saying something like ‘you really are a dork, you know that? I’m going into the gas station shop to buy some root beer and a pack of Junior Mints.’” OPENING CREDITS—A MONTAGE OF SCENES FROM A ROAD TRIP A rented black convertible Mustang tears along a desert road. PAUL is driving, MICHAEL is in the passenger seat while MICHELLE sleeps on the back seat, a ridiculous grin on her face. For some reason. They arrive in LA, three hours late, after sitting in ten miles of traffic outside the city. MICHAEL leaves the car and walks into his luxury hotel in downtown LA, paid for by the company he’s meeting in town. The hotel has no more vacancies. PAUL and MICHELLE drive around for another hour before, battered by tiredness, PAUL insists they check into the next hotel they see: the Super 8 Motel. The Hollywood sign can be seen in the distance.
