　　Would have been nice to catch that
　　game though.

　　（breaking）
　　Well hell， I didn’’t know Pudge was
　　gonna hit the home run.
　　
　　They laugh.
　　
　　TIME DISSOLVE TO:
　　
　　INT LAMBEAU’’S OFFICE -- DAY
　　
　　The office is more crowded than usual. TOM and THREE of
　　LAMBEAU’’S COLLEAGUES including the esteemed ALEXANDER PEKEC
　　are in the room. Will sits at a work-station which projects a
　　proof of his [Will’’s] onto the chalkboard. Lambeau stands beside the
　　projected image at the board arguing with Pekec， a foreign
　　mathematician. The image is of a Ramses graph binary tree.
　　
　　LAMBEAU
　　Alexander， I know your theory. The
　　boy is updating， he’’s strategy
　　stealing……
　　
　　PEKEC
　　With a Ramses graph on the binary tree--
　　
　　LAMBEAU
　　--But what he’’s doing， he’’s attaching
　　an edge to the adjacent vertex. He
　　can always failsafe to either side--
　　
　　PEKEC
　　Maker can. This is not new， Gerry!
　　
　　Pekec starts writing lines beside Will’’s proof on the board.
　　
　　PEKEC （cont’’d）
　　--but I can always garbage out
　　（writes frantically）
　　All the way to "N" to the minus one.
　　
　　LAMBEAU
　　No， there’’s a limit.
　　
　　PEKEC
　　The limit is not found!
　　（turns to Will）
　　The limit is not found.
　　
　　WILL
　　But I can always go to the other side.
　　
　　PEKEC
　　There is no proof--
　　
　　Lambeau can no longer contain himself.
　　
　　LAMBEAU
　　--Maker builds "K" to the "N." N is
　　three to the K times--
　　
　　PEKEC
　　--But--
　　
　　WILL
　　Look， I wrote it down.
　　
　　They turn to Will who places his proof on the projector. The
　　image is cast over their faces. It reads:
　　
　　As Pekec reads and the realization dawns on him:
　　
　　WILL （cont’’d）
　　It’’s just simpler this way.
　　
　　Lambeau turns with satisfaction to an understanding Pekec.
　　
　　LAMBEAU
　　Alexander， your theory is changed.
　　
　　CUT TO:
　　
　　INT. SKYLAR’’S ROOM -- NIGHT
　　
　　Will and Skylar in her room， post coital. They are wrapped in
　　a sheet. Will is absent-mindedly playing the memory game SIMON.
　　The pattern grows increasingly complex. After a beat:
　　
　　SKYLAR
　　Why do we always stay here？
　　
　　WILL
　　’’Cause it’’s nicer than my place.
　　
　　SKYLAR
　　I’’ve never seen your place.
　　
　　WILL
　　Exactly.
　　
　　SKYLAR
　　What about your friends？ Or your
　　brothers？ When do I get to meet them？
　　
　　WILL
　　They don’’t come over here that much.
　　
　　SKYLAR
　　I think I can make it to South Boston.
　　
　　WILL
　　Aah， it’’s kind of a hike.
　　
　　SKYLAR
　　Is it me you’’re hiding from them or
　　the other way around？
