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.
