　　EXT. BACKYARD - NIGHT
　　
　　Chris realizes he’s not caught. Close call. Inside Georgina notices the bar chair has been moved. She moves it back into its original position， and begins cleaning the kitchen
　　cabinets. Chris quietly sneaks around the house.
　　
　　INT. ARMITAGE DINING ROOM - NIGHT
　　
　　Chris sneaks in through the door in the dark dining room.
　　
　　INT. ARMITAGE LIVING ROOM - NIGHT
　　
　　Chris moves through the living room towards the stairs， the lamp in the middle of the room turns on startling Chris. Missy sits near him; cat in lap; almost seductively. He’s caught;
　　for real this time.
　　
　　MISSY
　　Quick fix？
　　
　　CHRIS
　　Yeah. Nerves got me I guess.
　　
　　MISSY
　　Come. Let’s nip this in the bud.
　　
　　INT. MISSY’S OFFICE - NIGHT
　　
　　Missy sits in a chair and directs Chris to sit across from her. She pours them both some tea. Chris sits.
　　
　　CHRIS
　　I still don’t know if this is right for me.
　　
　　MISSY
　　There really is no need to be nervous.
　　
　　CHRIS
　　I’m good. The dude was running out there. Scared me.
　　
　　MISSY
　　Walter starts early every day.
　　He’s borderline obsessive compulsive. Tea？
　　
　　CHRIS
　　Nah， I’m good. It’ll keep me up.
　　
　　Missy puts two sugar cubes in her cup. She begins to stir slowly， CLINKING the SPOON softly and rhythmically against the sides of the cup.
　　
　　TING TING. TING TING.
　　
　　MISSY
　　How’s the bed. Good？
　　
　　CHRIS
　　Yeah.
　　
　　MISSY
　　Comfortable enough？
　　
　　CHRIS
　　It’s perfect， thanks.
　　
　　MISSY
　　Enough sheets？
　　
　　CHRIS
　　Yep.
　　
　　TING TING. TING TING.
　　
　　CHRIS （CONT’D）
　　So， how does this work？ Are you going to swing a pocket watch in front of my face？
　　
　　MISSY
　　You watch a lot of Television. Now， you are feeling very sleeepy……
　　
　　They share a smile.
　　
　　MISSY （CONT’D）
　　We do use focal points sometimes， but just about any object or simple motion can guide someone to a state of heightened suggestibility.
　　
　　CHRIS
　　Heightened suggestibility. Okay， where do we start？
　　
　　MISSY
　　Your childhood.
　　
　　CHRIS
　　Yeah， my memory sucks.
　　
　　TING TING. TING TING.
　　
　　MISSY
　　Wounds get locked in your heart and they fester and grow into ugly little things like depression and addiction. But， they are all in there somewhere. All we need to do is find the key.
　　
　　TING TING. TING TING.
　　
　　The world around Chris slowly goes out of focus.
　　
　　CHRIS
　　I guess if it makes me quit……
　　Wait…… Has it started--？
　　
　　MISSY
　　--we’re going to go back to a place that might be uncomfortable for you. Your Mother’s death to be specific. Were you there when she was hit？
　　
　　CHRIS
　　I was home. I was watching TV.
　　
　　MISSY
　　Let’s go back there. Hear this place. Let the vibrations rush run through your body and ears. Hear it…… Find it…… Tell me when you find it.
　　
　　The sound of RAIN AGAINST a WINDOW slowly fades up along with the MUFFLED sound of a SITCOM ON TELEVISION.
　　
　　CHRIS
　　Okay…… Yeah， I found it.
　　
　　TING TING. TING TING.
　　
　　MISSY
　　Good. How did you find out she died？
　　
　　CHRIS
