Halloween: The Series.
     Episode 3.18: Welcome to Haddonfield.

The camera drags us to a podium, as we struggle between numerous Haddonfield citizens. We find ourselves in Haddonfield City Hall, 
camera flashes go off, loud discussions erupt… someone is expected. All heads turn to Mayor John Hodges as he firmly grabs the 
microphone and adjusts it before his mouth. Bodyguards and his entourage follow him, gathering around his wife Linda Hodges and 
his two daughters Rebecca and Emily. 
 The camera flashes multiply as he pauses, waiting for everything to settle down. 

MAYOR HODGES: We as a town have gone on united, facing tragedy. Yes we’ve witnessed some hard times. People are reluctant to visit our
beautiful town because of what’s gone on before. As a result, we were left to struggle with our economy. Tourism is at an all time new low. I plan 
to bring it all back to Haddonfield. To prove that we are worth it as any other town. To expand on our cultural experiences and get to know the 
world a little better. To let the world to know us a little better. I can guarantee we will have more jobs by the beginning of next year. I will not leave 
you Haddonfield. It is my home. It is our home.

A significant sum of the citizens’ clap as the mayor walks off the podium to join his family. We make a dramatic pan back as TV reporter 
Angela Ryder turns to us with a smile, gripping a microphone. 

ANGELA RYDER: Mayor John Hodges has just announced his plan to rejuvenate the city and it’s economy for the better. He was scarce on 
details however. Many citizens are scratching their heads as to how he plans to do so, leaving many questions unanswered and many uncertain. 

The Halloween Theme begins to play as we rise up over Haddonfield. The title card appears reading:
HALLOWEEN: the series
     The music becomes a far more rock and roll version of the theme tune and various images from seasons one and two flash up. The 
cast characters are named as:
Paul Rudd as TOMMY DOYLE
Carrie-Anne Moss as DEBRA LOOMIS
Johnny Depp as LONNIE ELAMB
Rebecca Gayheart as HELEN JACOBS
with 
Colin Baker as ADAM TRAVERS.

A sign from a highway comes into focus:’ WELCOME TO HADDONFIELD’. 
INT. TOMMY’S ROOM – DAWN
Tommy is resting on his bed. His slight movements announce the end of his sleep. 
His body turns over, facing the window as his eyes gently open. 
His mouth opens wide to yawn as he gazes outside. The room’s window reveals Haddonfield at a very early stage of the day, covered 
in a whitish hue. Tommy pushes his legs out of the covers and finally raises himself up to walk the distance between him and the window. 
He rests his head on the window admiring Haddonfield’s streets. The window is opened, allowing a very light breeze to blow in Tommy’s 
face…
EXT. ST. LUKE’S CATHOLIC CHURCH – DAWN
Father Gabe Murphy walks up the steps, reaching for a key in his pocket. He turns to the street as he notices a person walking by. He 
gladly smiles and nods to the woman. The woman looks at him and quickly returns to adjusting her coat.
INT. CAMPER VAN – MORNING
Adam is petting Wolf. He is already dressed and prepared for the day. He heads over to his small table in order to get the last sip of his 
drink. He pauses to look out his window. The sun is shining. Adam smirks at Wolf, opening the door.
 INT. POLICE STATION – DAWN
A picture of Deputy Robbie Redman’s mesmerizing blond girlfriend signed ‘Julianne’ stares at him smilingly from his desk. Robbie 
embarrassingly fishes out an empty lunch bag, causing his anger to fulminate. Yet, a few coworkers notice and erupt in laughter.   
INT. DEBRA’S RESIDENCE – MORNING
Debra and Lonnie are facing each other as they sit on each end of the living room couch. Both are wearing pajamas, their legs 
warmed by a cover. 

LONNIE: Ok, my turn. Where do you see yourself in one year?

DEBRA (Smiles): You know I don’t like to think about things like that.

LONNIE: Oh come on, you think it was easy when you asked me about my first time?

DEBRA: As if the answer was some honorable secret…

INT. JACOBS RESIDENCE – MORNING
We follow Garry Jacobs as he rushes to the kitchen. He packs a school bag onto his back, 
grabbing a bowl. Sitting at the table are Rose and Helen waiting for their meal to fully cook. Garry grabs some milk intending to pour 
it but accidentally knocks a bowl to the floor. Rose and Helen jump from their seats. Rose holds her chest in fear. 

ROSE: Its alright Garry. I’ll take care of it.

Rose brings her hand through Garry’s hair as she bends over to clean the pieces. 

A large sign displaying a ‘Haddonfield’ title is hanged over city hall. Many cars are parked around it. A speech by the mayor is perhaps 
expected…One of the cars turns on its radio. 

BARRY SIMMS (O.S.): Good morning everyone. I’m your favorite radio host Barry Simms, live from Chicago. Of course, Haddonfield callers 
have been stalking me to get my opinions on events concerning their town I could care less about. God, I hate my job. I’d kill myself but I have 
several nudist bars dependant on me…  

INT. TOMMY’S ROOM – MORNING
Tommy tightens his belt and quickly exits his room. He walks down the stairs finding Mrs. Blankenship drinking coffee in the kitchen.

TOMMY: I’m off Mrs. Blankenship. Have a nice day. Bye.

MRS. BLANKENSHIP: You’re not having any breakfast?

TOMMY: I don’t eat breakfast Mrs. Blankenship.

MRS. BLANKENSHIP: Most important meal of the day, you know.

TOMMY: I know.  

LONNIE: Yeah but… I don’t know. But wait you never told me how long you plan to stay in Country manor. 

DEBRA: Well I’m well off there. I think maybe I’ll take quite some time and save up. I do have plans though to move in a more in higher 
position eventually.

LONNIE: It’s quite evidenced you have a thing for the insane.

DEBRA: Hey. Be respectful to my patients, you big dummy. (Pause) But seriously though… You know, I’d hate to put any pressure on you 
because I know you hate that. But I’m thinking maybe one day we could eventually buy a house. 

LONNIE: I have a house.

DEBRA: I’m sure you and I and Josh will have a happy marriage.

LONNIE: Wow.

DEBRA: Oh my god. Did I just say the ‘M’ word?

Lonnie nods, terrified.

DEBRA: Oh my god, I’m so stupid. I’m so stupid. 

Debra gets up and hides behind the couch. Lonnie rests over it, watching Debra. As she yawns, visibly tired. She looks between her 
blinds.

DEBRA: It’s already morning. 

LONNIE: Hide, you evil succubus.

The phone suddenly rings. Debra and Lonnie look at each other. Debra gets up to pick up the receiver. 

DEBRA: Hello?

LYLE: Debra. It’s me.

INT. LOOMIS RESIDENCE – MORNING
Lyle is holding on to the receiver.
INT. DEBRA’S RESIDENCE – MORNING

DEBRA: Dad.

LYLE: Debra I need to see you. Is it possible?

DEBRA: Sure. Right now?

LYLE: That would be fine.

DEBRA: Ok. 

LYLE: Bye.

DEBRA: Ok… Bye. (Hangs up and turns to Lonnie.) My dad wants to see me. I’m gonna have to head over there right now.

LONNIE: Is everything fine?

DEBRA: Probably. I’m gonna go take a shower.

Debra kisses him. We stay on Lonnie as he is left alone. He looks at his watch.

EXT. JACOBS RESIDENCE – DAY
From the corner of the street, Adam appears. He glances over at the house as he checks his watch. He slowly breathes in before 
setting foot on the steps. Adam extends his hand in order to reach the doorbell. Before he can, the door is suddenly swung open, 
causing Adam to step back in surprise. Helen and him come face to face. 

HELEN: Oh. Hey, what are you doing here?

Rose Jacobs appears behind Helen.

ROSE: Good luck honey. 

She smiles when her eyes meet with Adam’s.

ADAM: Good morning Helen and Rose.

HELEN: I gotta go. Bye.

ROSE: Good luck.

Helen thanks her mother and walks off.

ADAM: How is she?

ROSE: Trying her best I think. It’s her first driving test today. I’m a bit nervous for her.

ADAM: Wow. I hope she passes the test. Walking was getting tiresome.

ROSE (Laughs): Come on in. 

Adam follows Rose into the kitchen. 

ROSE: There’s breakfast set up if you want.

ADAM: No, no thank you. I’m not much for breakfast.

ROSE: It’s the most important meal of the day...

ADAM: Oh but I do eat breakfast. Just very, very early in the day. About at 6 o’clock, the day before. 

ROSE (Smiles): So no breakfast then. You did come earlier than…

Rose looks behind Adam and smiles. Adam turns around to see Garry standing outside his room.

ADAM: Hey Garry.

GARRY: Hey.

ROSE: Garry was a little late and missed his morning class. 

GARRY: Nice seeing you Adam.

ADAM: Nice seeing you too.

Garry enters his room and closes the door behind him.

ROSE: I’ll make some tea. We’ll probably make it to church a little later.

Adam sits down as Rose prepares tea.

EXT. STREETS – DAY
Helen seems quite nervous as she is walking her way to the driving institute. 
She brings up the book she is holding on one hand and tries to open it up and review some of the things she’s learned. She pauses 
as she hears a voice coming from an alley. 

VOICE: Happy birthday to me!

Her book is brought down as Helen bends her head forward to look closer. She spots Greg Bradford acting in a drunken state, being 
helped to stand up by Sue. Helen pauses a moment to see what they are doing, frowning, but moments later she is quick on her way, as 
she does not want to be seen. She walks off frame…
INT. CAR – DAY
Helen jumps in the driver’s seat, quickly putting her seat belt ahead of her. She looks at the driving instructor next to her. 

INSTRUCTOR: Here we go.

Helen timidly smiles as she puts in the keys and turns on the car. The Supremes’ ‘Come see about me’ suddenly comes over the radio 
speaker. Helen steps on the gas. 

INSTRUCTOR: Don’t be nervous Helen. I know I was the first time. Remember to change from ‘park’ to ‘drive’ before you step on the gas. 

Helen takes hold of the wheel and steps on the gas. After a dodgy start she swerves out of the institution and onto the Haddonfield 
streets. 
She carefully tries to stay straight, while her eyes look steadily before her.

INSTRUCTOR: Make a turn at the next.

Helen nods, anticipating the turn she will have to make. We pan directly into her face. 
Below the frame her hands become agitated as she quickly turns the steering wheel. She then brings it the other way in order to stabilize 
the vehicle. 

INSTRUCTOR: Very well. 

Camera pans onto her from the side as she smiles. 

INSTRUCTOR: Ok turn here again.

The car makes the turn and leaves the frame. Debra’s car comes from the opposite lane. Camera pans back as she drives towards us. 
She looks over to her side, seeing some of the Haddonfield residents walk by. She pours her attention back into the road moments later. 
As we get closer, we see how nervous she really is…
INT. LONNIE’S ROOM - DAY
Lonnie sits on his bed and stares at the wall, pondering thoughts. A frame with Debra on his desk is smiling at him. The camera pans in 
closer to him. A door is heard closing causing Lonnie to sit up straight. He peeks outside his door to see Josh exit his room. Lonnie opens 
his door wider.
LONNIE: Josh

JOSH: Hey.

LONNIE: Hey. I’m going out soon.

JOSH: Ok.

Lonnie rests back on his bed, his pensive eyes looking straight at us.

EXT. HADDONFIELD STREETS – DAY
Tommy wanders in the streets. Gazing at many things with much curiosity. His cheeks are red from the chilly air and his hands are 
firmly tucked in his pockets. He pauses to stare at something in a clothing store window. From the reflection on the window we can 
see Sue and Greg walking on the opposite sidewalk of the street. Alice Huberman (3.3) and her neighbor come out of the clothing store 
as they cross the street.

ALICE: Oh I just wonder what the Mayor is up to this time… What kind of a plan…

em, allowing Greg and Sue to come into frame.

SUE: No.

As Sue walks on ahead of Greg, she finally pauses to take a closer look at something: A sparkling silver necklace. Greg quickly notices.

GREG: You want it?

SUE: Shut up Greg.

GREG: No, really. Do you want it? Anything Sue. If that’s what you want I’ll give it to you. 

SUE: Stop it Greg. It’s your birthday and I don’t want to see you celebrate it alone, much less in jail.

Greg walks in the store. Sue looks on nervously.
 We pan back to Tommy, staring at a shirt. He looks in closer to see the price tag only to stagger back as a loud alarm is set off. Tommy 
quickly looks up in the window, witnessing two teenagers run in the reflection. He turns around to see the other side of the agitated street. 
He slowly makes his way there while police sirens are heard almost immediately. Voices among the crowd fight to be heard as everyone 
is trying to explain the event. A police car parks right behind Tommy. Its doors open for Robbie to come out, along with Sheriff Cody 
Hanes. Tommy turns around only to meet them face to face.

SHERIFF CODY: Did you see what happened?

TOMMY: Umm…. Well yes. I guess.

ROBBIE: Move out of the way.

Robbie enters the store as the sheriff turns to Tommy.

SHERIFF CODY: Would you like to make a statement?

TOMMY: Fine.

INT. POLICE STATION – DAY
Robbie is writing on a paper while Tommy stands before the counter. The phone is ringing incessantly.

ROBBIE: And you have no idea who they were?

TOMMY: Not at all. I saw them through the reflection of a window. I just know it was a young male and a young female.  

ROBBIE: Alright. We thank you for the information.

Sheriff Cody walks towards Tommy, presenting his hand.

SHERIFF CODY: We want to thank you Mr. Doyle for your contributions. It is very appreciated. Your statement will be kept in our files and 
used if ever we catch these two criminals.

TOMMY: Ok. You’re welcome. Bye. 

Tommy walks away, expressing satisfaction. We remain with Robbie as he turns to the office and bumps into Deputy Jeff.  Robbie 
angrily pushes him back.

ROBBIE: What the fuck is your problem?

Sheriff Cody quickly comes to separate them before anything should happen. 

SHERIFF CODY (To Robbie): What the hell has been with you these past few days? 

Robbie ignores him as we pan directly into his face.
INT. LONNIE’S ROOM - DAY
Lonnie is on the phone.

LONNIE: So I would need a high school diploma for that? Right? (Pause) I see. But the rest is ok? Ok thank you for your help. Bye.
Lonnie writes something down on a pad. He puts on his coat and leaves the house.
EXT. HADDONFIELD STREETS – DAY
Lonnie is looking at his notes as he walks away from his house.
INT. JACOBS RESIDENCE – DAY
Adam and Rose are sitting face to face, drinking their tea.

ROSE: You’ve been working lately?

Adam shrugs.

ADAM: I try to live with what I have.

ROSE: That’s good.

ADAM: Are you alright, you have everything you need?

ROSE: I try to live one day at a time. For now I’m alright. I think going to church is going to be quite therapeutic for me. Thank you for the 
invitation.

ADAM: You’re very welcome.

ROSE: It really has been a long time since I haven’t gone, to be honest. 

Rose looks over her shoulder for a small radio on the counter. She switches it on to Nils Lofgren’s ‘Black books’. 

ROSE (Whispers): Between you and me, at my husband’s funeral I sort of felt a bit guilty. You know, because I haven’t been in a long time. 

ADAM (Whispering): There’s nothing you should feel guilty for. Be true to yourself, it’s all that matters. 

Rose gets closer to Adam to hear him better. 

ROSE (Whispers): I try. I really want to be a good mother. I’m waiting and see what Helen and Garry do with their lives. They’re still so 
young and fresh to life. 

Rose smiles as she is thinking about something.

ADAM: What?

Rose tells Adam to keep his voice lower with her hands. She readjusts her chair and gets closer to Adam again.

ROSE (Whispers): I mean to hear stories like the ones of my grandparents. Where they struggled and barely had anything. It was so different 
from what our kids have today. I was just thinking about my grandfather, when he told me that when he was about Garry’s age he’d keep this 
snake and wrap it around his neck, walking around the main streets of the neighborhood claming he was granted ‘vision’. The people were so
religious back then; they literally ran to him to get his blessing. It was absurd, but that’s how he went through the day without an empty stomach. 
People would give him bread… everything. (Pause) You know, this isn’t the first time I told you this story. Way back then, we barely had anything 
ourselves. And when I told you this story, you got inspired and started lurking around the main restaurants always wearing that priest robe of yours. 
People barely looked at you (Giggles)

ADAM (Whispers): Absurd. I never did a thing of the sort. 

ROSE (Whispers): Oh yes you did. You may not remember now because your situation’s changed. But it’s true.

ADAM (Whispers): I’m as hungry as I’ve ever been, Rose. 

EXT. LOOMIS RESIDENCE - DAY
Debra slams the door of her car and quickly walks up to the house’s door. She knocks and waits. Her patience is rewarded as the 
door is opened for her.

DEBRA: Mother.

No one is present at the door. Debra frowns and enters the house only to find Lyle between the door and the wall.

LYLE: Pumpkin, are you alright?

DEBRA: Daddy… Yes I’m ok, just a little tired that’s all.

Lyle smiles at her and reaches to hug her very strongly. He then looks at her face.

LYLE: You’re so beautiful.

DEBRA: You’re so vain… You always said I looked exactly like you!
Lyle smiles.

LYLE: I’ll take your coat. Sit down.
Debra looks around the house before entering the dining room and taking a chair.

LYLE: You want anything to eat? Hungry?

DEBRA: No. Dad…

LYLE: Thirsty?

Debra nods with a smile. She rubs her neck, yawning. Lyle rushes in the kitchen to get her something.

DEBRA: Dad, what did you want to talk about?

Lyle comes back in with a glass of orange juice. 

DEBRA: My favorite. 

LYLE: Remember when you were a little girl and you’d only drink it if I squeezed it.

DEBRA: Thank you.

Lyle sits down with her.

LYLE: How’s Lonnie?

DEBRA: Good. He’s probably gone back to sleep.

LYLE: You two moved in together?

DEBRA: No. I’m not sure we’re at that stage yet. We haven’t really planned anything. To be honest, we haven’t had time. He came back 
from Ireland not too long ago and I’ve been busy with work.

LYLE: Oh Ireland, I went there once. Beautiful place… And how’s work?

DEBRA (Shrugs): Ok I guess. It could be better…

fly cut to a silent image of Helen driving and then come back…

LYLE: Just Ok? Debra what’s wrong?

DEBRA: Dad, what did you want to talk to me about?

LYLE: Something… important.

DEBRA: Then why didn’t you tell me before?
LYLE: I… I just didn’t have the heart.

DEBRA: What do you mean? You want me to call mother downstairs?

LYLE: Debra, there’s something I need tell you…

We pan in closer to Debra’s face.
EXT. POLICE STATION – DAY
Robbie exits the police station in order to gain access to his car.
In great speed he drives out in the streets. The camera follows until it pans to the left onto the sidewalks, where Tommy is walking. 
Something upward is holding his attention. His steps get slower and slower while everyone around him hastily advances. It is 
discovered that he is watching an old man trying to put up a big wooden sign for his store. The old man mutters to himself while 
struggling with the many things in his hands. Suddenly he shouts as his hammer slips out of his hand. As the man steps down the 
ladder to get it back, he miscalculates his distance and staggers back. Tommy quickly grabs him by the arm, allowing him to put 
his other foot safely on the ground. 

OLD MAN: Oh (Sighs) Thank you.

TOMMY: Need any help?

OLD MAN: Finally, a Haddonfield citizen decent enough to offer an old man some help. 

TOMMY: You want me to hang it up there?

OLD MAN: Yes, please.

The old man steps down the ladder, leaving the big sign atop of it. 

OLD MAN: I left everything up there. 

TOMMY: Ok.

Tommy steps up the ladder, hammer in hand. With all of his strength he takes the sign and makes it stand up on the ladder. It 
reaches its appropriate destination. 

TOMMY: Like this?

OLD MAN: Perfect.

Tommy quickly fixes it up and looks at the man. The man nods in satisfaction. Tommy steps down the ladder with the hammer. 
The old man presents his hand.

OLD MAN: Wow, really I have to thank you.

TOMMY: You’re welcome.

OLD MAN: It’s appreciated. 

Tommy nods smilingly and walks away. We pan away as he wanders again, gazing at his surroundings... until he disappears in 
the crowd. A car comes before us, Helen is driving.
 INT. CAR – DAY 

INSTRUCTOR: I mean I just felt the need to tell you that in case you were feeling any pressure about that.

Helen turns around the corner and waits before a traffic light. Diamond Yates crosses the street, right in front of the car.

HELEN: So the car is insured… no matter what happens? That’s what you’re saying?

INSTRUCTOR: Yes. (Pause) That girl she reminds me of my girlfriend Julianne. 

Helen raises the volume on the radio. 

BARRY SIMMS (O.S.): Why is everybody talking to me about this? Well… anyway… This guy, Jon H. Hodges made this huge promise 
that he plans to make his town better. Everyone is scratching their heads, completely fucking clueless. He said he wants to make the economy 
better, leaving most in the uncertain. However, what is certain is that mass speculation has started over whether Mrs. Hodges is pregnant or is 
suffering from a massive weight gain…

EXT. STREETS – DAY
Lonnie is looking at addresses from the houses surrounding him. The area is small, quiet and reserved yet the houses are majestic. 
One bigger than the other. He stops before one in particular, believing he has found the matching address. He walks up the steps, 
taking a deep breath. He fixes his shirt and rings. After only a few moments in waiting, a polished man answers at the door.

MAN: Yes?

LONNIE: I’m… here for the job interview.

MAN: What position?

LONNIE: Bodyguard, for nighttime hours. 

MAN: Ah. Yes. Come right in. 

INT. HOUSE - DAY
Lonnie steps inside.
MAN: We’ll be with you very shortly, if you’d like to wait here please.
Lonnie nods as the man disappears into a hallway.

VOICE 1: So… if your father is British and your mother is Colombian… does that like… make you from British Columbia?

VOICE 2: You have something to drink? I’m starving of thirst.

Lonnie’s eyes open wide as he recognizes those voices. He slowly walks forward, peeking from the side of the wall. Lonnie finds 
a big living room, sitting on the couches are Keith, Richie and a young man. They sit in front of a big screen TV broadcasting 
images of city hall. Keith slaps Richie in the back of the head.

YOUNG MAN: Ok calm the fuck down. My dad’s gonna kick you out of here. Every time you guys are here, you do this!  Can’t we 
just watch the freaking’ film already? 

KEITH: What the hell is it again?

YOUNG MAN: I told you already, The last temptation of Christ. 

RICHIE: Ok whatever, put it on.

The young man takes out the film, puts it in and soon the film starts. 

YOUNG MAN: Apparently Robert Deniro was up for the part of Jesus.

KEITH: Yeah right.

Keith gets up before Richie and the young man.

KEITH (Italian accent): Are you crucifyin’ ME?

Richie and the young man roll over in laughter.

KEITH (Italian accent): I don’t see anyone here… so you must be wantin’ to crucify me?

RICHIE: But like seriously… the Jesus dude could do stuff like take his heart out and talk to snakes… but when it comes to him getting 
whipped his superpowers are gone… There’s serious subtext going on there…

Keith and the young man look at each other. Richie notices.

RICHIE: What?!

Keith and the young man laugh quite loudly. Richie gets up, infuriated. He looks at them as they are ignoring him and paying much 
attention to the film.  
RICHIE: Jesus dies at the end! Ha!

He storms in Lonnie’s direction. Lonnie acts quickly and hides in a nearby area. Richie comes running in from the hallway and slams 
the door behind him. Lonnie comes out, waiting a few moments for Richie to get away as he carefully steps out of the house himself, 
crossing out the current address from his notes. 
INT. POLICE STATION – DAY
Robbie steps in the station, looking at a paper. He gains his desk, the picture of the stunning Julianne still smiling at him from behind 
him. A coworker secretly slips him a paper on his desk. Robbie looks down upon it. 

ROBBIE: When?

OFFICER: Now, at that address. 

ROBBIE (Embarrassment becomes apparent): Ok.
 
 INT. ST. LUKE’S CATHOLIC CHURCH – DAY
People are getting up as the sermon is over. Adam and Rose decide they should stay with a glance. We pan in closer to Rose as she 
stares upwards. Ahead of the stained glass, lays an imposing white statue. 
 INT. CONFESSIONAL – DAY - ROSE
A black window is suddenly open. We vaguely see father Murphy on the other side of the dark screen. 

MURPHY: How long has it been since you last confessed your sins?

ROSE: It has been quite a moment father. I’ve been through some terrible things

MURPHY: God will give you the strength to survive. Have faith; it will lead you to overcome any obstacles. 

ROSE: My husband died father.

MURPHY: May god rest his soul.

ROSE: Today father, in the sermon… Something that was said struck me.
My husband was a troubled man. There are some things (Sighs) I am not even ready to mention. In the sermon, forgiveness was discussed. 
The importance of forgiveness… Sometimes I just don’t know if I have the strength. How can I forgive? 

MURPHY: Did you love your husband?

ROSE: Yes… of course I did.

MURPHY: Then there is your starting point on your quest to forgive. Remember that a human being who inflicts pain is only in pain himself. 

ROSE: Yes that is true. Personally, I will never forget at night… when my husband used to wake up, soaked, from his nightmares. There was 
this fear in his eyes that I would never see in another part of the day. He was a bad man… but he suffered a lot too. It scared me to be honest. 
It was devastating…

INT. CONFESSIONAL – DAY - ADAM
Father Murphy carefully listens to Adam.

ADAM: I feel I have let down a friend father. A woman I am quite fond of. There was a time she was young and independent. There was a 
clear road ahead of her. Her love of the medical field was inspiring. She wanted to become a nurse. I let her go. And each time I look into her 
eyes I see the pain in her eyes. 

MURPHY: It is not just you assume her suffering is a direct consequence of your actions.  

ADAM: I’m sorry father, to think of it, it was very wrong of me to say that. She has two beautiful children and she wouldn’t exchange them 
for the world.  

MURPHY: In the end, God has a path for us all…

ADAM: But what can I do? I have another close friend who has a brilliant career ahead of her as a psychologist but I feel her companion 
will keep her from evolving. I don’t want to see the same thing happen to her… 

INT. CONFESSIONAL – DAY - ROSE

es, I’m afraid to have hope, because I’m afraid to be let down with what’s about to come my way.

MURPHY: I do not think it is truthful for you to say such things. You have very consciously chosen to go on in life. Your survival is a result 
of your hope for better things to come. You must ask yourself what is important to you. 

: Luckily for me I have a friend who’s been supporting me though this. 

MURPHY: It is necessary that you keep those you cherish close to you. 

INT. CONFESSIONAL – DAY - ADAM

MURPHY: I see that you feel a great deal for this woman. Your worries are sincere and seemingly heartfelt. What is it that has kept you from 
taking care of this woman for so many years?

ADAM: Father, truth be told. It was not my right to, per say. In other words… I’ve lusted and cared for a married woman. And this has been 
for many years.

INT. CONFESSIONAL – DAY – ROSE

MURPHY: It is important that you do not let go of such a person in times like these.

INT. CONFESSIONAL – DAY – ADAM

MURPHY: It is your responsibility to stay away from this woman.

ADAM: Her husband died not too long ago. I don’t think she had felt genuine love for that man in a long time.

We remain briefly with Father Murphy...
INT. ST. LUKE’S CATHOLIC CHURCH – DAY
Adam walks towards Rose, who is patiently waiting for him at the door. They look at each other smiling, ready to leave. We follow 
them out into…

EXT. STREETS – HADDONFIELD OVERVIEW - MIDDAY
We pan from left to right over a long shot of the town. We see its main road, the church, the police station and a crowded city hall. 
Barry Simms’ broadcast is heard.  

CALLER 1 (O.S.): What’s this about the mayor having a secret affair?

BARRY SIMMS (O.S.): Oh come on, that’s yesterday’s news. And besides, when we live in a world where Howard Stern gets more 
blowjobs and cash than I do… I don’t feel like talking about it. Next.

CALLER 2 (O.S.): Hey. I can’t wait to find out what this big plan is… but I wanted to know what’s the story about the mayor and some cult?

BARRY SIMMS (O.S.): Well… not too long ago the mayor was caught throwing a shirt out that reportedly was a gift to him by some cult. 
One of our sources quotes the cult leader as saying that the ‘I’m with stupid’ shirt was actually for his wife.

INT. POLICE CAR – DAY
Robbie slowly halts the car. He looks out his side window as we pan closer to his face. He has found what he was looking for.
INT. LONNIE’S ROOM – DAY
Lonnie is on the phone again. He patiently waits for an answer. 

VOICE (O.S.): Hello. Welcome to our 24-hour customer service hotline. Our offices are presently closed. Please call through Mondays and 
Thursdays from 9 to 6. Thank you.

 The line hangs up. Lonnie blinks repeatedly in stupefaction.   
EXT. STREETS – DAY
Lonnie jumps on his motorcycle and rides away through Haddonfield…
He looks ahead for most of the time, until he devotes his attention to the local police station. He parks on the side of the sidewalk to 
gaze at it, but only a moment later he drives away.
EXT. HOUSE - DAY   
A maid opens a door to Lonnie. She politely greets him.

LONNIE: Yes. Hello. I’m here for the interview.

MAID: Come right in, sir. You’re expected.

Lonnie smiles as the interior of the house seems very inviting, with warm colors and a majestic grandeur. A radio is heard playing 
Kim Carnes’ ‘Betty Davis eyes’ in the background. The maid leaves for a moment and returns confused.

MAID: I will take you to the waiting room. 
  
INT. BACKYARD – DAY
Robbie has just climbed over a fence. He remains low, carefully walking through a backyard of a house. After briefly checking out 
the surroundings, he mounts a large trashcan in hopes of reaching the window above it. His eyes suddenly open wide as he discovers 
two figures in a narrow and dark laundry room. In a burst of surprise, he applies his hands on the window. Unbeknownst to him, it is 
a flapping one. The window slams down and Robbie slides in head first.
INT. HOUSE – DAY
The maid has taken Lonnie all the way down the hallway, close to the waiting room. A loud female scream is heard. Suddenly a door 
slams open and half naked man rolls out on the floor. A naked Julianne stands above him. She looks back at Robbie, who’s hanging 
upside down, his foot stuck in the corner of the window.    

JULIANNE: Bob! You’re embarrassing me!

The angry man looks up at Lonnie and the maid. Everyone stares at each other frozen.

MAN: I’m not seeing anyone today!

We follow Julianne making a quick escape until we remain on a desperate Lonnie…

BARRY SIMMS (O.S.): Next up is Al Green’s ‘Let’s stay together’. Now there’s a song I’d like to dedicate to Liza Minelli’s cheeks, but 
alas I dedicate this to my sweet Julianne.

EXT. STREETS – DAY
Tommy is staring at something off frame from a distance. He pauses, quite unsure.  
He closes his eyes and takes a deep breath… Fade to,
   A man and a woman are facing each other in their bed, sleeping. The white ruffled sheets hugging their bodies, revealing their 
contours. The man is Lyle, sleeping, while Norma is awake staring at him as many thoughts seem to go through her mind. We fade 
through many images as Norma is suddenly out of bed. A noise is suddenly heard, Lyle gently raises his eyelids. He comes to realize 
he is alone in the room. Strangely his closet door is left open as a few clothes are hanging out. Lyle slowly makes his way out of bed 
to inspect the closet. A suitcase is gone. Walking quickly, Lyle gets to the end of the room and walking out into the hallway. Before 
rushing down the stairs he pauses to look at the hallway window.
  Norma is about to reach for the handle of their car. She pauses and notices Lyle. They both stand motionless for a moment. Lyle 
looks at her, while she looks at him. Norma opens the door and gets in the car. Lyle leans in closer…
 Norma drives away, becoming a small black dot… Fade to…
INT. KITCHEN - DAY
ON Debra’s face. She is in a surprising stillness, staring at us, lost in a land of thought. Lyle and Debra are both standing up, their 
hands grasping scotch.

DEBRA: What are you going to do now?

LYLE: What do you mean?

DEBRA: Does Uncle Sam know?

LYLE: Yes.

Debra turns to look at the bottle.

DEBRA: Do you have a napkin or something, my glass is too cold.

LYLE: Right behind you.

Lyle watches Debra as she turns to get napkins. She carefully takes her time to wrap it around her glass, creating a vast silent 
moment. Debra sets her back on the counter again and drinks. 

LYLE: You want anything else?

Debra shakes her head. She pauses and looks at the bottle. 

DEBRA: Paula gave you this right?

LYLE: Yes. 

DEBRA: I remember. She always had a number of these stocked up in her home. I remember when we used to visit her at her big house 
near the river. Mother always used to dress me in that hideous green outfit. And then we’d gather to eat those figs you brought from Greece, 
they were so good.

Debra takes the last of her glass’s content and put it’s on the counter. She looks deep into her glass.   

DEBRA: If only I had known before somehow, I could have done something.

LYLE: If your mother decided to leave, in what reality would you have been living in, had you convinced her to stay?

Debra shrugs her shoulders. She then looks down, pondering thought. Lyle looks over to the table and indicates with his head for 
them to sit down. Debra nods and follows him. Lyle stares at her, yet Debra notices. She shrugs her shoulders once again. 

LYLE: Debra why don’t you tell what’s going through your mind?

DEBRA: I don’t know what to think.

LYLE: Your mother always wanted the best for you. Sometimes she did it the wrong way. But we all make our mistakes don’t we? You 
don’t make your mistakes? I don’t make any mistakes?

DEBRA: What can I do? She left. It’s her decision. Besides, we don’t even know if she’ll come back or not. She’s probably doing this 
for a week or two.

LYLE: Debra, I know you’re angry with her.

DEBRA: Well I didn’t like when she shit all over your brother like that.

Lyle doesn’t say anything.

DEBRA: Whatever, she wanted to leave, it’s her problem. 

LYLE: Don’t say it doesn’t matter to you. I know it affects you  When I asked you about your work, you career you told me it could 
have been better. What was that supposed to mean?

es…a long silence ensues…

DEBRA: You made your point. I talk and talk, but it’s not like I’m any better. 

LYLE: That’s not what I meant Debra. I just want you to tell me what’s wrong.

: I haven’t been having the most stellar of years. I failed one of my patients, dad. I can’t think of a worse thing I could do. 
? 

DEBRA: This young girl came to me for help. We came to know each other very well over the course of a year and a half or two. Her 
father would beat her; she even showed her scars to me. He… would even molest her. He practically ruined the entire family.  
As I said, she confided many things. I’m so stupid sometimes. We didn’t speak for a while, she asked not to be one of my patients. 

LYLE: What happened?

DEBRA: She told me certain things. I admit I got scared and didn’t think it through. I called child services… but what we’re they going do? 
Then some other things happened…. I helped her out at her trial…

LYLE: Trial?

DEBRA (Sighs): Yes, trial… murder… death… and now this.

Debra lays her head back in exhaustion, looking at the ceiling. Lyle slides his hand across the table to Debra, who firmly grasps 
it in return. 

LYLE: Come, I have to show you something.

INT. CAR – DAY

INSTRUCTOR: Excellent. Your parents should be very proud of you, Helen.

Helen doesn’t respond, visibly struck. Suddenly, she reaches for the radio and flips through many channels until stopping at Al 
Green’s ‘Let’s stay together. 

HELEN: Oh, I love this song. (Mutters the lyrics) Why, why do people break up?
Turn around and make up.
And I just can't see.
You'd never do that to me.
Being around you is what I see.
Baby, baby let's, let's stay together.
Loving you whether,
Times are good or bad, happy or sad.
Good, bad, happy or sad
(Helen forces the lyrics out, fighting the temptation to weep.) 
Let's stay together
Let's stay together
Loving you forever
Let's stay together
Together
Good, bad, happy or sad.

Camera pans around Tommy to reveal what he is staring at Lonnie’s residence. He crosses the street and knocks on the door. After 
a minute, the door opens but only partially. Josh’s face emerges. Once he sees Tommy, he opens it wider.

JOSH: Hey

TOMMY: Hey.

TOMMY: Is Lonnie there?

JOSH: No, I think he went out.

TOMMY: Ok. (Pause) Can I come in?

JOSH: Sure. 

Josh steps back, allowing Tommy to come in. 

JOSH: So… You want anything to drink?

TOMMY: No, no thank you. So how you been?

JOSH: I’ve been ok. Reading and stuff. You?

TOMMY: I’m good. 

JOSH: So that’s pretty much it.

TOMMY: What are you reading?

JOSH: Me? Stuff. I’m thinking of starting school again. I don’t know, I just picked some books about astrology. 

TOMMY: Astrology. That’s good.

JOSH: Yeah.

Josh enters his room so Tommy can follow him. A couple of thick books are laying on his bed. Josh sits down and invites Tommy to 
do so. Tommy grabs a book and flips through it. 

TOMMY: You read anything about constellations? That’s pretty interesting.

JOSH: Yeah, there’s a chapter on that too. 

Tommy stops on a page. 

TOMMY: Oh, the ‘Soul-mate’.

JOSH: That’s very interesting. Apparently for each human being there is a fellow soul. And when they meet, their destiny is to complete 
each other. 

Tommy reads for a moment.

TOMMY: Well… my life pretty much destroys the concept of the ‘Soul-mate’. I mean to believe in it, is to accept the fact that I should live 
alone for the rest of my life.

JOSH: Do you think you’ll ever…

TOMMY: Honestly, I don’t know. (Pause) You know Josh; I loved your sister very much. And I’ll always love her no matter what. She 
loved you very much Josh. 

Josh looks down in sadness as Tommy pats him on his back.

TOMMY: You looked a little sad before? Is anything wrong?

JOSH: Nah. It’s just… 

TOMMY: What?

JOSH: Sue. She hasn’t called all day. I don’t know where she is. Her mother said she went out… I don’t know what to think. 

TOMMY: Has there been any commotion between you two lately?

JOSH: Not really.

TOMMY: And you’re often honest with each other?

JOSH: Yeah. We’re on good terms. It’s just… I fuck up. Like… she doesn’t say it but I know she thinks I’m a loser. I mean even I feel like
 I have nothing going for me.

TOMMY: Don’t believe that. Go to school, get a job. You have someone you like around, be true and treat her nice. All that bullshit is true 
you know.   

JOSH: Well I was giving out applications the other day and one actually said he might employ me.

TOMMY: That’s great. Call me when they tell you.
Josh nods. He picks up a book and flips through a page or two. We track backwards as Tommy and Josh read.
INT. LOOMIS RESIDENCE – DAY
We focus on… a porcelain piglet… a pink bow… a baby picture… a report card… a small plastic doll… a little white baby hat. We 
cut to a wide shot of Lyle and Debra standing over a drawer, next to a bed.

LYLE: Remember these?

Debra takes the small porcelain piglet in her hand. 

LYLE: I just found this today, looking through your mother’s things. She kept all of your childhood things intact in this drawer, all these years. 
Report cards, drawings, everything. Right next to your bed. I think she brought your wooden horse with her. 

Debra sits on the bed, looking away, her features expressing fragility. Lyle takes notice and sits right next to her, wrapping his arm 
around her. She still looks away but firmly rests her face on his arm and quietly begins to sob.
INT. RESTAURANT – DAY
We track behind Adam and Rose as they enter the restaurant and meet a host. On the corner of the frame we see Julianne flirting 
with the restaurant manager. Annie Lenox’s ‘Why’ is whispering in the background. 

HOST: Do you make reservations?

ADAM: Yes. Two under Rose Jacobs.

HOST (Looks down): No, I’m sorry. I don’t have any reservation of the sort.

ROSE: Actually, sorry… It’s under Rose Parsons.

The host looks down on the list and nods. He assigns them a table near the glass walls and hands them menus. Adam and Rose choose 
not look at them right away. 

ROSE: It’s a nice day outside, the weather is being amazing for this time of year.

ADAM: What are you taking? 

Rose is about to respond but pauses.

ADAM: Everything alright?

ROSE: Yeah. A deja vu I guess. 

ADAM: You mean deja vu in reverse?

ROSE: What?

ADAM: When’s the last time we’ve actually been in a restaurant together?

ROSE: You’re right… I don’t know, something about the sun.  

Rose looks around, something catches her attention. As she looks away, Adam gazes upon her face and smiles. She turns back to him.  

ROSE: My neighbor. Two tables to the left. She keeps staring.

Adam turns to the neighbor in a subtle manner. 

ROSE: The scrutiny I am under. Amazing. You can’t even imagine the courage on some of them. One came up to me after she saw me with 
you and told me I should stay away because you’re probably up to no good and she went on with some other story concerning skeletal remains. 
Absolute nonsense.

ADAM: Come on, don’t mind her. Tell me about the sun. And that deja future.

ROSE: I don’t know. I think it was a dream. 

ADAM: What was it about?

ROSE: It was… I’m not sure. Me walking down some fantasy like bright road, I was picking fruit. And my children were there. It was such 
a great feeling. (Pause, looks down) I was in a bad situation for a long time Adam and I can tell you that when you wake up to reality your 
sweetest dreams become your worst nightmares. 

ADAM: It’s ok Rose. 

ROSE: No, I’m alright. I mean I see my children, and just today my Helen was going to her first driving test…

ADAM: And hopefully her last.

ROSE (Smiles): Well yes of course. And that’s it… my children. Helen and Garry are growing up to be adults. There’s my joy and my hopes, 
just to see them do their own things and achieving what they want as they progress. That’s what I hold on to. You know, for us, at our age it’s 
different. We can’t hope for things the same way that they do. We just mainly have a lot of responsibilities. 
 
ADAM: When’s the last time you’ve done something for yourself Rose? 

ROSE: I’m here aren’t I?  

Adam smiles.

ROSE: But there is one thing I can do, like you said earlier, and that’s to be true to myself. 

Robbie enters the restaurant, quickly spotting his girlfriend.

ROSE: I think I’m ready to finally commit to that…

ROBBIE (Shouting): What are you doing?

All heads in the restaurant quickly turn to Robbie and Julianne. 

JULIANNE: Leave me alone. Go away!

Julianne gives him a dirty look and walks past him.

ROBBIE: Where are you going?

JULIANNE: Somewhere you couldn’t reach me.

ROBBIE: You’re not getting the hell away from here or from me! I’ll see to it that you don’t leave this town!

JULIANNE: I was going to the ladies room.

Robbie’s silence is suddenly met with roaring laughter from everyone in the restaurant. He looks around embarrassed and 
immediately storms out after Julianne.                  Adam and Rose watch them from the windows. We pan right, to…
INT. CAR – DAY
Helen is making her way back to the driving institute.

INSTRUCTOR: Take the main road. The first one we took. 
 
We pan right, to…
Not far from the car, Sue is dragging Greg back to the store he robbed. He resists as they are very close to it. 

SUE: You have to bring it back!

GREG: I took it for you. It was for you. Sue don’t you know how I…

SUE: I’m asking you to bring it back, please. For me.

GREG: Sue, no one makes me feel like you do…

SUE: I said bring it back!

Sue pulls him forward as he pulls her backwards.

GREG: No!

He resists harder, grabbing her shoulder. Sue turns around and slaps him.

SUE: Don’t ever call me again.

We pan right, to…
On the same street not far, Robbie grabs Julianne’s shoulder.

JULIANNE: Would you like to feel my hand against your face?

DEPUTY REDMAN: Yes.

Julianne slaps him. We pan right, to…
INT. RESTAURANT – DAY
Adam and Rose are watching them from the windows. We pan right to…
INT. LOOMIS RESIDENCE – DAY
Camera close on a framed picture…  Lyle and Debra holding on to each other are reflected in a Mrs. Loomis frame hanging on 
the wall. We pan right, to…
EXT. STREETS – DAY
Lonnie on his motorcycle as he is lost in a land of thought. We pan right, to…
INT. LONNIE’S ROOM
The camera pans out from the room to the main entrance, landing straight towards Josh’s face. He is sitting at the table, smiling 
to himself. We pan right to…
INT. CAR – DAY
Helen slows down right before the old man’s store. Helen waits as a car is slowly is parking out from in front of the store. We 
pan right, to…
INT. TOMMY’S ROOM – DAY
Tommy has just laid his coat on a chair, taking off his shoes. He walks to his bed and sits on it. He notices his tired eyes in the 
reflection of his mirror. Tommy slowly unbuttons his shirt, ready to take it off but he pauses. He turns around, gazing at the 
telephone.
We FADE to…
INT. CAR – DAY
Helen waits patiently for the car to move out of the way. Her fingers tap on the steering wheel, sighing as she waits. Her eyes 
suddenly halt, her body restraining from any movement. A blood-curling scream of terror is let out as the old man’s sign Tommy 
hanged earlier drops atop of the car, drops and smashes over the car’s driver, killing her instantly. The vehicle speeds out of control 
smashing into Helen’s. A car coming from behind is surprised and slips right into the dead driver’s car. 
EXT. STREETS – DAY
People frenetically run around shocked. Haddonfield’s main street is suddenly blocked as a traffic jam tragically builds. A few 
citizens run towards to cars to help some of the drivers out. 
INT. RESTAURANT – DAY   
Rose and Adam notice the panic from glass. They look at each other frowning.
EXT. STREETS - DAY 
Robbie and Julianne turn around the corner and discover the hysteria. He quickly reaches his car and calls for backup. Robbie 
glances at his wife before running to the center of the accident, shoving people out of the way in hopes of getting the body out 
of the car. In the background Helen and the instructor remain near their car. Helen looks around spotting Sue and Greg 
disappearing each their own way. Robbie carefully tries to push the sign over to the other side, revealing the bloodied woman 
inside. He rigidly conceals his sadness. He tries to open the door but it’s stuck.

ROBBIE: Everyone get back!

Father Gabe Murphy stands out, coming near the window. He expresses sadness.

MURPHY: May God rest her soul. 

Murphy blesses her and soon Rose and Adam come through the crowd. 

ROSE: Helen!

Rose panics as she sees her daughter standing not far from the accident. Adam puts his hand on her shoulder, trying to comfort 
her as they immediately join Helen.
From the other end of the street, a curious and surprised Lonnie spots Adam. He gets off his motorcycle and runs towards them. 
Rose firmly embraces her daughter as soon as she reaches her. While in her mother’s arms Helen looks at Adam and smiles. Adam 
returns the smile and pats her on the head.

INSTRUCTOR: Well, you certainly should be proud parents.

ROBBIE: Everyone please stand back. Walk away. If you do prevent me from doing my job I will have to arrest you!

The crowd slowly starts to move, but barely. We pan to Lonnie, watching Adam.

LONNIE: Adam!

A hand suddenly stops him. Lonnie looks at the hand and then up to Robbie’s face.

ROBBIE: Lonnie, do me a favor. Stick around and help me open this door in the meantime. The town’s going haywire and I really need 
some help around here.

LONNIE: Sure, Bob.
ROBBIE: Thank you. Fucking town. Can’t even afford a decent ambulance system. Us of all towns… 

LONNIE: Did you request for backup?

ROBBIE: They’re probably trying to help the other end of this shit hole jam. When asshole politicians like Hodges run a town like Haddonfield, 
we’re bound to be understaffed. Town revamp my ass. Here, take this side of the door…

Robbie, only for a moment, turns to watch for Julianne… she’s gone. ON Adam as he notices Lonnie and watches him helping Robbie 
with the situation. A reflection grows on the car’s window; it is Lonnie’s as he pauses to stare at the dead woman.
INT. LOOMIS RESIDENCE – DUSK
Lyle and Debra are sitting at the kitchen table as they warm up to a cup of hot tea.

LYLE: I think it was your mother and mine’s 10th marriage anniversary party, and we were celebrating it at this reception hall…There was this 
radio host for some reason going from room to room. And when he came to my mother and me, he asked what was the secret to have a 
successful marriage for so long. That was the moment you grabbed his microphone out of his hand, literally snatched it and said out loud 
‘The secret key to a successful marriage is easy. And anybody can do it… It’s to have a daughter like me.’

Debra laughs, despite showcasing bloodshot eyes.

DEBRA: I said that? 

Lyle nods.
EXT. STREETS - HADDONFIELD OVERVIEW – DUSK
We witness the town’s commotion from afar as the sun has begun setting.
INT.TOMMY’S ROOM - DUSK
Tommy is resting on his bed, talking on the phone. We track towards him, his open shirt revealing his mutilated-like torso. We take 
notice of certain bullet wounds and long scars all over his light colored skin.

TOMMY: My day went pretty good. What about yours?

PATTY DOYLE (O.S.): Hey you know, same old, same old. Nice old lady like me can’t do too much. Nice to hear from you though.
TOMMY: Same for you. 

PATTY DOYLE (O.S.): So how is everything?

TOMMY: Alright I guess. I’m learning to take time for myself in a good way. 

PATTY DOYLE (O.S.): Tommy, that’s great to hear. Just don’t take too much time. Visit your mother once and a while. 
TOMMY:  I was thinking we could go for a cup of coffee or something.

PATTY DOYLE (O.S.): Good idea, I’d love to. 

TOMMY: Me too.

INT. CITY HALL - DUSK
Angela Ryder is speaking in front of a camera

ANGELA: I’m Angela Ryder. We are patiently waiting as in just a few moments Mayor Hodges will step on the podium with his wife and 
children to finally announce on how he plans to rejuvenate the town!

We track past the reporter to witness the masses gathering. Suddenly, loud clapping meets many cheers as Mayor Hodges walks 
on stage, his wife and children standing behind him. We glide atop of the citizens and the press’ heads and towards the podium as 
we meet with Hodges. Everyone in the room calms down to a steady silence. Breaths are held back as his lips spread, opening his 
mouth wide open to speak his first words when… city hall’s doors slam open to an exhausted Jack Sanford. 

JACK SANFORD: There’s been a large and tragic accident on the main road! More than one casualty!    

Gasps of shocks succeed themselves as one by one, citizens and press alike, flee to see the incident. Chairs are gradually emptied 
as discussions erupt and faces express curiosity. We pan past them, joining Mayor John Hodges, dumbfounded… finally slamming 
his fist on the podium.
