EXT. CITY PARK – DAY<br />

Book, Sam and Rachel sit on a park bench eating a lunch of hot<br />

dogs heaped with kraut.<br />

Book watches with amusement as Samuel wolfs down his lunch. Rachel<br />

eyes him a beat. then:<br />

RACHEL<br />

Your sister said you don't have a family?<br />

No.<br />

Book gives her a look:<br />

BOOK<br />

RACHEL<br />

She thinks you should get married and have<br />

children of your own. Instead of trying to<br />

be a father to hers. Except she thinks<br />

you're afraid of the responsibility.<br />

BOOK<br />

Oh? Anything else?<br />

RACHEL<br />

Oh yes. she thinks you like policing<br />

because you think you're right about<br />

everything. And you're the only one who<br />

can do anything. And that when you drink a<br />

lot of beer you say things like none of<br />

the other police would know a crook from<br />

a... um... bag of elbows.<br />

Book is staring at her. Rachel nods.<br />

RACHEL<br />

(continuing)<br />

I think that's what she said.<br />

Just then Samuel belches with huge satisfaction, drawing looks<br />

from Book and a couple of passers<strong>by</strong>. Rachel smiles proudly.<br />

RACHEL<br />

(continuing)<br />

Good appetite.<br />

CUT TO:<br />

INT. OUTER OFFICE/WAITING ROOM, NARCOTICS DIVISION – DAY<br />

Rachel sits uneasily in the outer office, one or two police clerks<br />

eyeing hercuriously. A sign on the desk reads "Narcotics Division.<br />

"<br />

Rachel cranes forward trying to peer through a partially open<br />

door.
