a companion piece for Purple Rain's 20th anniversary release

For your viewing pleasure the official script. It's worth reading ...it's the version with Vanity and is different in some surprising ways! Enjoy!

i haven't finished readin it but this stuck out 2 me so much!

MORRIS
I want to know when that sweet
thing shows up. You stay by
the door, you see her, you
come get me, cool?

JEROME
Cool. I come get you -- let
you know the girl's there.

MORRIS
Well, not if I'm with my other
babes. That wouldn't be cool.
I don't want to break their
hearts, and you know how I
feel abouy that. So we ought
to have like, a signal.

JEROME
A password.


MORRIS
Okay. What's the password?

JEROME
You got it.

MORRIS
Got what?

JEROME
The password.

MORRIS
The password is what?

JEROME
Exactly.

MORRIS
The password is exactly?

JEROME
No, it's--

MORRIS
-- Hold it now. Slow down.
The babe walks in and you see
her.

JEROME
I see her.

MORRIS
You come get me.

JEROME
I come get you.

MORRIS
And I'll probably have a
couple little sexies on the
stand-by, and we don't want to
upset them, do we? So you
just glide by me and
say...what?

JEROME
Okay.

MORRIS
The password is okay?

JEROME
Far as I'm concerned.


MORRIS
Dammit! Say the password.

JEROME
What.

MORRIS
Say the password, sperm
breath!

JEROME
The password is what.

MORRIS
(frustrated)
That's what I'm asking you!

JEROME
(more frustrated)
It's the password!

MORRIS
The password is it?

JEROME
(exasperated)
Ahhhhh! The password is what!

MORRIS
It! You just said so!

JEROME
The password isn't it! The
password is--

MORRIS
-- What?

JEROME
Got it!

MORRIS
1 got it?

JEROME
Right.

MORRIS
It or right?

JEROME
(perplexed)
What??



The Shoeshine Boy looks up slowly --
regards them with a soulfull look--

SHOESHINE BOY
Either of you do heavy drugs?

man thats funny! that shoulda been kept n the movie.

BRIDAL SHOP

as she stops suddenly and stares
transfixed. A YOUNG WOMAN, startingly
similiar to her in looks and coloring,
tries on a beautiful bridal gown as a
SEAMSTRESS adjusts the hem. The entire
scene is warm and endearing. Vanity is
struck by lt's beauty and seems to sigh.
The Young Woman looks up suddenly,
catches Vanity's gaze, and gives her an
affectionate smile. Vanity smiles back
avidly, then--

PRINCE (0. S .)
Give me that.

She looks up startled--

PRINCE
There ... on your boot.

She looks down -- it's the expensive
gold chain. She hesitates, then hands
it to him. He drops it into his pocket,
walks away--

VANITY
Hey, wait!

She runs after him--

VANITY
Give it back to mel

He continues to walk briskly -- she
starts pulling on his coat--

PRINCE
You can have it back later.

VANITY
I want it back now, okay?

PRINCE
Who gave it to you?



VANITY
A person

PRINCE
Female or male?

VANITY
Huh ...

PRINCE
You're lying. I can tell just
by your reaction that you're
lying.

He moves away briskly -- Vanity stands
her ground, amused--

PRINCE
So you gave it to me -- it's
not yours anymore.


this part never did make sense 2 me.
