Sure.
DEAN
I got him.
(To Chris)
Come here.
Dean grabs Chris’ arm and pulls Chris in tight.
DEAN (CONT’D)
Call me Dean. We hug around here, Fella.
CHRIS
Alright.
DEAN
My wife Missy.
CHRIS
I’ve heard so much about you guys.
Missy holds Chris’ shoulders and examines his face and chest.
MISSY
Yes, you’ll do just fine. So handsome.
ROSE
Can we get inside before you guys start embarrassing me?
MISSY
Of course, come inside, make yourself at home.
CHRIS
I’m fine with the embarrassing by the way; go ahead.
Missy and Dean laugh. The four enter the house. Missy shuts the door behind them.
Outside, Walter watches as his smile fades away. He slowly turns and goes back to work.
INT. ARMITAGE LIVING ROOM - DAY
A wonderful house looms ahead. The interior is worldly and interesting; clean and homey. Several paintings of castles and medieval battles accent the walls. Taxidermy. One wall is all bookshelf, and there is a fireplace.
Above the fireplace is a large hauntingly beautiful portrait an old man and woman.
CHRIS
Wow.
DEAN
“Wow” is good. We’ll take wow.
CHRIS
I grew up in a one bedroom, so for me, this is ridiculous.
DEAN
It ought to be. Lord knows we’ve done enough work on it through the years……
MISSY
(To Rose and Chris)
How was the ride in?
ROSE
We hit a deer.
DEAN MISSY
Oh no! Where?
ROSE (CONT’D)
I don’t know. Down around Lyons road?
CHRIS
It came out of nowhere.
MISSY
Are you guys okay?
CHRIS ROSE
Yeah. Yeah. It just fruck us out.
MISSY (CONT’D)
I bet.
DEAN
You know what I say. One down…… a few hundred thousand to go.
Dean snickers.
MISSY ROSE
Dean. So awful! Dad.
DEAN (CONT’D)
What?! Those things are everywhere up here, Chris; like rats. The damage they’ve done to the ecology alone…… Anyway, are we ready for the grand tour?
MISSY
Let them unload their bags first.
DEAN
Leave ‘em. Walter will get ‘em.
ROSE
I think we’ll manage, Dad.
INT. ARMITAGE UPSTAIRS HALLWAY - DAY
Rose and Chris take their bags upstairs.
INT. ARMITAGE HOUSE - ROSE’S BEDROOM - DAY
Rose’s old room is preserved in the state of a young-minded teenage girl. Lots of pink and dated boy band posters, a stuffed lion. A window overlooks the front lawn.
Rose and Chris place their bags down.
ROSE
(sarcastic)
You think they wish I was still a kid?
CHRIS
I cannot believe they kept it the same.
Chris looks at some pictures posted on her dresser.
DEAN
I got him.
