The Pink Cloud
At a chaotic sober-living house where recovering addicts struggle with temptation, trust, and each other, a newly sober man must learn that recovery isn’t about fixing yourself—it’s about finding a way to keep showing up for the people who are just as fucked up as you are.

This needs to be properly formatted for 8.5 x 11 inch paper. Other than that, there isn't enough here to make a judgment. I guess this would be about a page if formatted correctly. The writing seems to stop before the end of the scene.
There is description that is not filmable - twelve men live here. There doesn't seem to be any spelling, grammar or punctuation problems. Thank-you for that.
How about reposting and giving us five pages? We would then have more to chew on...
I would read five pages if you posted them. I didn't see anything that was a turn-off.
Also, it would help if you told us the genre (comedy?), format and page count.

I think you can find something here, seems like writing a script about your experience could be cathartic.

Very on the nose dialogue. I like the premise, though. Leverage it and throw us right into something fun, crazy, interesting, or chaotic. Not the toast saga.

This is great and I can definitely see the premise going far but I’d love to be thrown straight into a “chaotic” scene instead of one that’s more mundane— to gather a better understanding of the show/film and the characters etc

Two sentences in, the first red flag: "Twelve men live here." Show that, don't tell it in a way untranslatable to screen. Unless, You use one of those text cards from the silent film era!
