scene one:
[ Jeszyca is dressed up enjoying
her breakfast at the table
when Sunshine comes in. ]
"Aren't you running late? I
thought you had to be there
at 7."
[ She questions as Sunshine
sits down. ]
SUNSHINE: Yeah I decided to
lessen my time at the fitness
center.
JESZYCA: Okay. To how many
days?
[ She looks at Jeszyca, smiles
& bites into her toast triangle. ]
SUNSHINE: Not sure yet. Now
that I can work anywhere I
want to consider my options.
JESZYCA: Its nice to consider.
Better to have a concrete plan.
SUNSHINE: You're right. And
speaking of, I have got to get
going.
Mmmmm. What did you coat the
berries with?
JESZYCA: A little this, a little
that. Maybe some vodka.
[ Sunshine isn't surprised. Kissing
her & walking towards the door. ]
SUNSHINE: Good thing I only had
one piece. See you tonight babe.
[ Jeszyca smiles, indulging in
a spiked blueberry. ]
scene two:
Inside Syria's living room.
[ Ricky walks inside joining
Hahn on the couch. ]
HAHN: Thanks for coming.
RICKY: You sounded frantic
on the phone. What's going
on?
HAHN: Have you noticed any-
thing different with Charles
lately?
RICKY: Well I don't hear from
him much and when I do it
tends to be general conver-
sation only.
HAHN: Yeah same here. Sadly I
have no clue what's going on
anymore. He just won't let
me in.
RICKY: If Charles wants to be
secretive and go all MIA. What
can we really do about it?
[ Hahn stands up, walking &
Ricky turns toward him. ]
HAHN: We could find him and
try to force out the truth.
[ He pulls out a single key
from his khaki pocket. ]
HAHN: I knew keeping this
would come in handy. He's
staying at my old place.
I'll drive.
[ He stands, waving the key. ]
RICKY: After you.
scene three:
Night before, at The Aisles.
[ Ski is showing Joh the new
ordering system when Stuu
shows up. ]
"Cool I think I got it."
JOH: Hey man, how's the
baby?
STUU: She's good. Weis is
home.
[ He stands there, quiet &
trying to keep his eyes
open. ]
SKI: Here. You need this
more than I do.
[ He hands Stuu his coffee
drink & he takes a sip. ]
STUU: Thanks. Things have
been hectic ever since Zain
went on vacation. I'm use
to having that nap time
after I get off.
JOH: Yeah. He'll be back
from New Zealand in another
week. He met a girl while
he was there too.
STUU: Of course he did.
[ Stuu half smiles. ]
JOH: I don't think it's
serious though. Don't freak.
SKI: You sure about that?
[ They look at Ski's screen
as picture after picture
scroll of Zain, holding &
kissing this new girl. ]
SKI: Looks pretty for real.
scene four:
TA, the next afternoon.
[ Sunshine is seated comfort-
ably in Mark's office when
he starts to speak. ]
"You're probably wondering
why exactly I called you
in."
SUNSHINE: Normally I've read
a description of the job but
in this case.
MARK: I know. I contacted
you first. I've heard about
your experience from Jeszyca.
And there's something coming
up with TA that I think you
would be the perfect fit for.
SUNSHINE: Really, what is it?
A restaurant of some sort?
MARK: You're on the right track.
There will be food involved.
[ He stands up, revealing the
model that's placed on his
desk. ]
MARK: This is what the inside
of the first Aisles Bar will
look like.
SUNSHINE: Wow. That's amazing.
MARK: And you haven't even
heard the best part.
I know you have bartending ex-
perience. But we decided someone
with your drive and talent should
really be at the forefront of
this whole operation.
SUNSHINE: What does that mean?
MARK: It means I want you to
manage.
scene five:
[ Ricky is standing behind
Hahn as he unlocks the door.
Walking in, they can tell
right away that no ones
inside. ]
"Look around. Maybe will
find something."
RICKY: This is kind of weird.
[ She walks into the kitchen.
Opening the fridge, she sees
a few random food items and
a jug of milk. ]
RICKY: Milk is expired. I'm
guessing you were right and
he hasn't been here in a
few weeks.
HAHN: His brother has a cabin
I think but I doubt he be there
after.
[ Ricky enters the living room
where Hahn is going through
papers on the table. ]
RICKY: After what?
HAHN: He found out Sandie is
sleeping with his brother.
RICKY: That's crazy. No wonder
he left town. I wouldn't want to
be near them either
HAHN: Who is this?
[ He shows Ricky a hotel notepad
with an unknown name written
down on it. ]
RICKY: I don't know but maybe
someone at this hotel has
seen him.
HAHN: Yeah it's in Mirror. We
should check it out.
[ Suddenly they hear a key rat-
tling its way into the lock.
Shaken still, eyes toward the
front door. ]
HAHN: He's here.
scene six:
"Thank you again. I won't
let you down."
MARK: Don't be nervous about
being new to management either.
We're one team at TA. I'll make a
path for you.
[ He stares at Sunshine as
she exits his office.
Turning around, she almost
bumps into another worker. ]
"Hey. Can I ask you a quest-
ion?"
SCOTT: Sure anything.
[ He smiles at her. Trying not to
show his obvious attraction. ]
SUNSHINE: How do you feel about
Mark as a manager? Is he
a trustworthy guy?
SCOTT: Yeah. I'd say so.
Why are you considering
coming on? Maybe in my
department.
SUNSHINE: No it's somewhere
else. I'll see ya.
[ She leaves Scott disappointed,
walking out. ]
