SCENE 1:
In between TA & The Salon.
[ Acer joins Mark inside his
truck & they take off. ]
MARK: Hey, it's been awhile.
ACE: I know man, I'm sorry.
Karie has been saying we
don't spend enough quality
time together. So we've
been going out more.
How is little Jai?
MARK: He's doing better. Should
have the cast off by next week
Ski was a wreck though.
ACE: Yeah I get it. Bet he's
having a hard time taking it
easy.
MARK: You're telling me. Jai
insisted on starting this week
too. My one armed cashier.
ACE: I see. He has a hard head
just like his father.
[ They both laugh. About half-an
hour later, they pull into the new
Mirror TA.
Getting out, they walk up to the
front & stand near the female
manager. ]
MANAGER: Thank you for coming.
Doors should be opening in five
minutes.
ACE: Before Jim gets here for the
meeting, let's go look around.
I heard they have everything
here.
MARK: Okay but give me about
ten.
[ He walks off disapearing into
the crowd. ]
SCENE 2:
On a highway nearby.
[ Dyminic & Amber are headed
toward Maison City. ]
AMBER: So we're going to the
town we met in but not to the
hotel. Is that all your going
to give me?
DYMINIC: Yes. Can't you just
relax a little and take the
surprise?
AMBER: I don't know.
[ She looks at Dyminic & he smiles
keeping his eyes focused ahead
of them. ]
DYMINIC: This is something I want-
ed to do for awhile now.
AMBER: Oh yeah? You never took
Syria out here.
DYMINIC: Oh no. She wouldn't dare.
AMBER: Well I'm pretty open, I think.
At least I try to be.
DYMINIC: I think so. That's one
of the many things I adore about
you.
[ Amber leans over, touching Dyminic's
arm that is lying on the center consel. ]
DYMINIC: Only a little while longer
I think.
AMBER: Wait, I see water. We must
be going to the beach.
DYMINIC: Damn, I knew I should have
blind folded you.
AMBER: Funny. So what's so scary
about sand and water? She not
know how to swim.
[ Suddenly her question is answered
when Dyminic pulls into the parking
lot. Looking out into the beach, Amber
sees loads of people. Sitting, standing,
or playing all with no clothing. ]
AMBER: Ohhhh.
SCENE 3:
Back at The Aisles.
[ Hahn & Jai are walking
around the store. ]
HAHN: You been here plenty
of times. I'm sure you got
the layout down.
JAI: Yeah. So when can I
start?
[ Hahn looks down at his
schedule. ]
HAHN: Next Monday at 5.
JAI: Cool thanks.
HAHN: Yup. Now how about
I show you something not
on the tour?
[ A little later they enter Mark's
office. Jai goes to sit in the
chair but Hahn motions for
him to stand by him at the desk. ]
JAI: What is it?
[ The screen comes on & Jai
sees multiple areas of the
store. ]
HAHN: Sometimes I come up here
and just look around.
JAI: Or spy on your girlfriend?
[ Jai starts to laugh, not noticing
his nervous expression.
Looking right at Jai, Hahn
quickly shuts off the screen. ]
SCENE 4:
Back inside Mirror TA.
[ Mark is walking around trying
to find his boss Jim when he
hears him talking with the
female manager. ]
MANAGER: I appreciate you
approving the higher start pay,
I know it wasn't easy getting
that across the boards.
[ Mark leans on the door, listening. ]
JIM: You're welcome.
MANAGER: I know I don't have
nearly as much experience as
you tend to hire.
JIM: Don't worry about it. I've seen
you in action for some time now.
If I didn't trust you, we wouldn't
be doing this.
[ He gives her a sneaky look. ]
JIM: I've got a meeting though.
Talk later.
[ He kisses the manager on her
way out the door.
Waiting for her to leave, Mark
enters the room. ]
MARK: Sorry I was late. Got
lost looking around. This
store is amazing, right?
[ He fakes normality to an
unsuspected Jim. ]
SCENE 5:
At MCity Beach.
[ Dyminic is walking free with
Amber right beside him.
Silent, he looks over at her. ]
DYMINIC: You look cute in your
top and wrap up for the bottom.
AMBER: Yeah. I didn't figure
the whole show was necesary.
But look at you.
[ They stop & Dyminic stands
in front of her, every part of
his body in view. ]
AMBER: How do you feel?
DYMINIC: Quite comfortable.
AMBER: Well's that all that
matters then.
[ She takes his hand & they
continue walking.
A young girl around Amber's
age passes by, getting Dyminic's
attention. ]
DYMINIC: Why did you drop my
hand?
AMBER: I don't know if I like this
anymore.
DYMINIC: I didn't mean to look.
Just not use to this place.
AMBER: Alright. Well I'm hungry.
Can we go?
[ She walks off toward the parking
area, leaving Dyminic standing
on the sand. ]
SCENE 6:
In Mark's car.
[ Ace & him are talking. ]
"Dude look at all this free
stuff I got and coupons."
[ Mark gives him a harsh
look. ]
ACE: What? I got you a bag
too.
MARK: I bet this whole thing
was funded by our boss.
ACE: I thought that was the
manager's responsibilty.
MARK: Apparently not if he's
screwing them.
ACE: How do you know?
MARK: I heard Jim flirting with
her and then they kissed.
ACE: Oh. If I we're you, I'd
stay out of it.
MARK: I could. Or there's a
TA executive meeting soon.
Maybe I'll decide to share
the news.
