CONCEPTUAL STORYTELLING ASSIGNMENT 3 and 4

Joe and Mary are in the bedroom of their cabin aboard a ship

in the harbor of San Francisco. The ship will be leaving for

South America in a few minutes. 

INT. BEDROOM - NIGHT

Mary hugs Joe

                                   MARY

                         Joe.. Joe

                                   JOE

                         You don't have to say it. We're

                         kind of making a fresh start

                                   MARY

                         Do you really want to?

                                   JOE

                         Sure. Sure I do. We've got to do it

                         right. We'll do the whole thing

                         right

Joe walks over to the open doorway and looks out at the bay.

                                   JOE

                             (Talking to Mary while

                              looking out of the door)

                         The lights of Frisco. They'll be

                         fogging out in a minute.

Joe turns out the lights in the bedroom

                                   JOE CONTINUED

                         You know, I've been doing a lot of

                         thinking lately. Don't laugh. Five

                         or ten minutes and we'll be pulling

                         out for a new country leaving

                         everything behind. Maybe we can

                         make a different life for ourselves

                         in South America. A good life. From

                         what I hear I've haven't been there

                         myself but a friend of mine told me

                         it's a good place. We might be able

                         to get a little ranch or a business

                         or something. Start fresh - decent.

                         Have a house. Kids maybe. Bring

                         them up right. Scrub em all up and

                         end them off to school. 

The sound of the ships engines starting is heard

                                   JOE CONTINUED

                         There's the engines. We ought to e

                         shoving off in five or ten minutes.

                         You know with everything we have on

                         the ball we ought to make something

                         good for ourselves - decent. Where

                         no one's afraid of the daylight.

                                   MARY V/0

                         Why doesn't he stop talking. When

                         the clock stopped moving he was

                         saying everything I've ever wanted

                         to hear. All my life - the lyrics

                         were alright but the music was

                         Ann's. Ann's. Suddenly I realized

                         that evertime he kissed me he's be

                         kissing Ann. Everytime he held me,

                         spoke to me, danced with me, drank

                         with me, played and sang with me it

                         would be Ann. Ann 

                             (SHOUTED OUT LOUD)

                         ANN!!! JOE! Listen. I lied. The

                         phone call - it wasn't the desk

                         clerk it was Butch. Ann's in

                         trouble - bad trouble. She's with Butch.
