<strong>INVENTING</strong> <strong>THE</strong> <strong>ABBOTTS</strong> - Rev. 3/20/96 3.<br />

4CONTINUED: 4<br />

JACEY<br />

It was busy all night.<br />

ELEANOR<br />

Maybe you had the wrong number?<br />

JACEY<br />

Are you mad at me?<br />

ELEANOR<br />

No. Are you mad at me?<br />

JACEY<br />

No. Who said I was?<br />

I did.<br />

ELEANOR<br />

JACEY<br />

I just wanted to talk to you last<br />

night.<br />

ELEANOR<br />

We can talk tonight at the party.<br />

JACEY<br />

I wasn't invited.<br />

ELEANOR<br />

Yes, you were.<br />

No, I wasn't.<br />

JACEY<br />

ELEANOR<br />

Well, now you are. But if you're<br />

mad at me you don't have to come.<br />

She gives him a sultry smile, turns and glides into a<br />

classroom as the BELL RINGS. The corridor is quickly<br />

vacated by all but Jacey -- he savors the aftertaste of<br />

Eleanor's smile.<br />

5 EXT. HOLT HOME - EVENING (MAGIC HOUR) 5<br />

ESTABLISHING ANGLE of the modest two-story clapboard<br />

house in a working class neighborhood. A home-made pingpong<br />

table takes up so much room in the detached garage<br />

that it forced the eviction of the family car, a 1950<br />

Plymouth coupe, which is parked nearby on the driveway.<br />

The garage doors are open and the garage light is on.<br />

We hear (V.O.) DOUG SINGING bits and pieces of<br />

"Heartbreak Hotel" in his best Elvis fashion.
