EXT: WINTER RIVER TRAIN STATION -- DUSK<br />

The six o'clock train from New York is pulling in. Half a dozen<br />

native Winter Riverites get off the train, carrying shopping bags<br />

bearing the logos of Manhattan stores. After them come four of<br />

LYDIA's DEATH ROCKER friends. We saw them at RAPTURE.<br />

LYDIA gives them hasty greetings, but it's apparent she is<br />

looking for and hoping to see someone else.<br />

She leads them over to the car, which she is driving. She walks<br />

apart with her best friend in the group, TRIXIE. (It's her real<br />

name.)<br />

LYDIA<br />

Oh God, I feel like a<br />

jerk. I met every single<br />

train from New York and<br />

he's not <strong>here</strong> yet.<br />

TRIXIE<br />

You are a jerk. He's<br />

not coming.<br />

LYDIA<br />

He promised. And Delia's<br />

going to kill me, because<br />

I haven't been at the house<br />

all day.<br />

As they're all piling into the car:<br />

TRIXIE<br />

Maybe he died and that's<br />

why he couldn't come.<br />

EXT: THE HOUSE -- DUSK<br />

No more WORKMEN, no more VANS. Everything's ready, and<br />

apparently calm. The strings of party lights on on, illuminating<br />

the tent behind.<br />

It would all be very pretty if we didn't know that ADAM's orchard<br />

had been razed for this.<br />

INT: MASTER BATHROOM -- DUSK<br />

DELIA is at the mirror, with a towel wrapped around her. She is<br />

drying her hair.<br />

CHARLES lies in the bathtub, nearly comatose, with the shower<br />

running full blast onto his face.<br />

CHARLES<br />

That man is still locked<br />

in my study.<br />

DELIA<br />

(Totally unsympathetic)<br />

We've got fifteen minutes<br />

to get dressed.<br />

DELIA walks out of the bedroom.<br />

INT: MASTER BEDROOM -- DUSK<br />

DELIA walks in, and to her astonishment, finds<br />

BEETLE JUICE / OLD WOMAN<br />

calmly sitting on the corner of the bed.<br />

DELIA<br />

What the hell are you still<br />

doing <strong>here</strong>?<br />

BEETLE JUICE / OLD WOMAN<br />

I was waiting for my money.<br />

That's fifteen seventy.<br />

DELIA<br />

Oh God. Look, wait out in<br />

the hall. I'll get it in<br />

a minute.<br />

BEETLE JUICE / OLD WOMAN
