Two inept brothers from Texas, come to Los Angels to find their estranged father and inevitably become hitmen. Blah Blah Blah....

"AL" and "LIL AL" are brothers who grew up in a seemingly normal middle-class conservative household. Unbeknownst to them, their father, JIM JENNINGS is a legendary hitman for the GULF COAST MOB.

Jim has recently been tasked with the murder of the heir to the SOUTH BAY MOB in an act of familial Parricide, he, however, does not follow through with the job because he believes it will lead to a war that will ultimately get himself and all of his family killed. Instead, he turns state's witness for the FBI with the plan to keep his children safe.

 The GOLDMAN TRIBE - A criminal organization split up into two sub-families, the GULF COAST MOB (Texas) and the SOUTH BAY MOB (Los Angeles).

Shadow members within the Gulf Coast Mob seek to use the brothers as pawns in a Coup d’etat, with the intention to consolidate both organizations into one unified empire. The two estranged brothers, kidnapped, threatened, and beaten are left with no options but to head to Southern California and find their father or finish his task.

Waiting to Kill will take place in the back alleys of West LA’s pseudo exceptionalism. From the drug front of a Green Juicery, the scantily clad, sex cult yoga studio, all the way to the Pyramid scheme of Café Gratitude.

We will follow the brothers as they leave no crystal unturned in their quest to adjust to Trustafarian logic, pacifist assholes, and the Murders that will pay for it all.

You can’t put a price tag on health…or reason...

Blah Blah Blah Venice sunsets. 

ALBERT “AL” JENNINGS

ALBERT “AL” JENNINGS

AL – Recently released from jail for laundering money through his small bar in Texas. The middle of nine children, Al grew up never being noticed or considered, which leads him to constantly assert himself and his archaic masculine ideologies. The older of Jennings's sons, he is divorced with a 12-year-old daughter. He is constantly being emasculated by the women in his life. He is convinced that his father is the reason for his family issues. AL reads incessantly and fancies himself an intellectual but he really has no idea what he is talking about.

ALOYSIUS “LIL AL” JENNINGS

LIL AL - Ranch hand and semi-professional poker player. On the spectrum. He is the younger brother and he has always been coddled. He grew up watching old silver screen movies and listening to soul music and has never experienced love from those closest to him, making his desire for nostalgia and to be loved heightened. Lil Al is very good with numbers as he only sees information. This leads to making misinformed decisions with people as he is constantly regurgitating what he has seen and not what he has felt.

ALOYSIUS “LIL AL” JENNINGS

"For it is impossible for the blood of bulls to take away sins."   Hebrews 10:4

ALEXANDER JAMES "JIM" JENNINGS

JIM is the bygone father of the Jennings family. Has always had a cavalier attitude. Undereducated, and needing money to support his family, he went to work for Susan Gold as muscle, that ultimately lead to him becoming a contract killer. He doesn’t take out the heir to the Goldman family because he believes it will lead to a war that will ultimately put his family in danger. He goes to the FBI instead to turn states evidence, which he believes is the only way to protect his families. When his sons kill both heirs it creates chaos, leaving JIM helpless, whilst he tries to contain both mobs and the FBI.

EPISODE #2: “THE ART OF WAR”

  

Open on 1940’s Spanish home in Palos Verdes. There is muffled yelling and a faint sound of violins. As we get closer to the sound, traveling through the many rooms of this house, the music grows (‘Then He Kissed Me, by the Crystals’), as does the yelling. The yelling then turns to screams as we see Jonathan Goldman (leader of the south bay mob) with a giant butcher’s mallet raised above his head. The mallet begins to come down, but not before it is intercepted by his Chef. They stare at each other stunned for a moment before the guard explains to him that you should never tenderize lamb. Jonathan turns to his bodyguard who has just entered to ask if Jared has arrived yet to which the guard responds that no one has seen or heard from his wife still. He explains to the Chef the details of James illegitimacy and how Rachel was his niece. She was going to give the family a rightful heir to their traditional family. Bodyguard gets a text about Jared and Rachel missing. He hesitates for a moment before informing Jonathan. Jonathan goes back to cooking whilst the chef and bodyguard exchange uneasy looks. All of a sudden Jonathan loses it, smashing the entire kitchen, the TV, and destroying the meal. After which he throws the lamb on the grill. We pull out on a thrashed and bloodied kitchen and the back of Jonathan Goldman cooking a steak.

This argument ends with the brothers punching each other and wrestling in the backyard until Chicky shows up to break up the fight.
