SCENE
PAT and AMBER are riding together in a car – PAT driving.
PAT
Pretty damn cold out there. Must be. Just look at that snow.
I sure hope you know where this place is. All I’ve had to eat tonight is a sandwich.
AMBER
It’s just up there. Over there. Trust me.
PAT
How do you know?
AMBER
Muzzle it.
PAT
I’m just nervous. Sorry.
AMBER
You always nervous?
PAT
You don’t know the guy.
What if he starts doin’ some weird shit?
AMBER
I can take care of myself.
PAT
But I can’t, I’m sure, if you get yourself in too deep.
AMBER
That’s not your problem.
It’s not your job. It’s mine.
Just let me out.
Park over there.
I’ll be back in half an hour. Tops.
PAT parks the car. AMBER gets out. PAT turns off the lights.
Behind a scrim or translucent screen we can see the silhouettes of AMBER and a man. He gives her some money, which she holds in her hand; and then an apparent disagreement breaks out. Suddenly he grabs the bills out of her hand. MBER leaves his house, walks to the car, and gets in.
