JANE<br />
How are you, Barbara? How's<br />
the flag cake coming? You<br />
remembered the sugar this<br />
year, didn't you?<br />
BARBARA<br />
Nobody ever forgets these<br />
simple mistakes.<br />
JANE<br />
I'm selling lottery tickets.<br />
Worthy cause. We're sending<br />
the high school honor students<br />
to New York for a few days.<br />
Give them a taste of real<br />
city life. How many do you<br />
want? Ten, twenty?<br />
BARBARA<br />
What's the prize?<br />
JANE<br />
Your flag cake. That's why<br />
I wanted to make sure you<br />
got it right.<br />
BARBARA<br />
Adam and I will take just two<br />
tickets. It wouldn't look good<br />
if we won our own cake.<br />
JANE<br />
T<strong>here</strong>'s something else I want<br />
to talk to you about.<br />
(Beat) How would you like<br />
to be rich beyond your wildest<br />
dreams?<br />
BARBARA<br />
Jane, Adam and I are --<br />
JANE<br />
Don't tell me that you're<br />
already rich in the things that<br />
matter, because, believe me,<br />
the things that matter are not<br />
the things that really matter.<br />
BARBARA<br />
Last week we could get four<br />
hundreds thousand for the house.<br />
How much do you think we could<br />
get for it this week?<br />
JANE<br />
Five. No question. This house is a<br />
Property of Quality and Distinction.<br />
EXT: ORCHARD -- DAY<br />
Small pear and apple trees. The pears are bearing now, the apple<br />
trees not yet. This is an idyllic setting -- but is is also<br />
functional and modest.<br />
Birds are singing in the trees.<br />
ADAM is standing in the middle of the orchard, filling up his<br />
basket with pears.<br />
From the edge of the forest, a young deer peers out at ADAM, and<br />
after a moment's hesitation, creeps out and into the orchard.<br />
ADAM reaches forward with a pear, and the deer takes it out of<br />
his hand.<br />
At this moment, a lovable COLLIE runs up to ADAM, but stops short<br />
when he catches sight of the deer. The COLLIE looks up at the<br />
deer, and the deer looks down at the COLLIE.<br />
The deer slowly turns off, back towards the forest.<br />
ADAM<br />
You watch out for those men<br />
with the guns.<br />
With the deer gone off, the COLLIE throws himself at ADAM's feet,<br />
and rolls over on his back. Kicking off one of his Hush Puppies,<br />
ADAM rubs the dog's belly with his stockinged foot.
