Black sky, bright white stars. A shooting star, purple, followed shortly after by another. And another, and another, and a cascade of shimmering purple lights, as we pan down to Rick and KRYSTALL. They are staring mouths agape at the lights.
The car’s lights suddenly come on and it’s engine starts. The two jump away from the car instinctively.
KRYSTALL: What the fuck
Rick: Whoa…
They look at each other, then approach the running car. Some kind of miracle.
On the side of the road, Hutch stands at a dusty old phone booth.
HUTCH: I’m gonna be back tonight, darlin’. There’s pizza in the freezer and you can just catch a movie, I should be there before your bedtime. The weather looks fine. I love you.
He hangs up, steps out, and looks up the road to see TELLY’s old black civic approaching.
A girl hangs up her cell phone, and raises her red cup of vodka, her girlfriends laughing.
COURTNEY: Anyone wanna get high?
They get high.
Some stuff happens to kill some time. Meaningless filler with some forgettable actors doing stuff.
TELLY gets out of his Fit and walks slowly over to HUTCH’s rig. HUTCH should not be all caps, but whatever. Hutch says
HUTCH: You wanna proceed, this will be the last time we will ever meet. Understood?
Telly says nothing.
HUTCH: The way this works, you let me know the answer to my questions, and nothing more. If you wish to move ahead, you let me know any questions you have. That way nobody knows nothing they don’t need to know and you can walk away. Do you understand?
TELLY: Y.. yes, I understand. I can assure you, I’m not here to waste your time. I want to know if you can get a job done.
