The deadline has passed! Post your titles and loglines (along with your prompts) here.

Group 2 / Romance / Disorganized / A prima donna

Away Games

At an out-of-state tournament, sparks fly between a high-school baseball coach and the father of the team's temperamental star pitcher.

And, just for fun, here's one I started but decided would not work:

BUDDY/COP

A grumbling police detective is partnered with a golden-boy rookie and given three orders: don't get him killed, don't bust his balls, and don't break his heart. Two out of three ain't bad.

@northernwriter I am intrigued!  Where do I sign up?

I love the irony that morality can be insured.

I'd read it just from the title, lol.

We recently did a 48 hour film race with a killer rubber chicken!!!

Yes, and... A Gun, Too (Please)

After first meeting at a housewarming party, two improv comedy fans find themselves entangled in a murder plot.

Sounds too much like a farce from the logline and title alone, but I swear there are some thrilling moments (I think). Excited to be reading the scripts y'all share -- cheers to everyone for writing this past weekend :)
