Carol and the EXTERMINATOR walk through the kitchen towards

the living room.

EXTERMINATOR:

I suspect this was a black rat or

what we call a roof rat. Very

common in Southern California.

CAROL:

Where do you think it came from?

EXTERMINATOR:

They’re everywhere. They live in

the trees... they’re all over the

city.

CAROL:

Okay.

EXTERMINATOR:

You’d never seen signs of them

before? Rodent droppings, gnaw

marks on bags of pet food, anything

like that? They love dog food.

11.

CAROL:

No.

EXTERMINATOR:

And you haven’t seen it since

yesterday?

Carol shakes her head.

EXTERMINATOR (CONT’D)

Well, I have my doubts that the

rodent is inhabiting your house. I

checked the whole perimeter for

points of entry and I’m not seeing

any holes and there are no signs of

colonization. I’ll set a few traps

to make sure but I think what we

have here is an isolated incident.

38 EXT. CAROL’S HOUSE - POOL AREA - DAY 38

Carol opens a garbage can lid and throws away a half-empty

bag of dog food.

rings.

INT. CAROL’S HOUSE - KITCHEN - DAY

Carol walks into her kitchen and picks up the cordless and

looks at the caller ID with a puzzled expression, then

presses the button and puts the phone to her ear.

12.

CAROL:

Hello?

KATHERINE (O.S.)

Hi Mom. It’s Katherine.

CAROL:

I saw your name on the thing... is

everything okay?

KATHERINE (O.S.)

Just checking in... I heard about

Hazel, Mom.

CAROL:

How on earth did you hear that?

KATHERINE (O.S.)

Rona sent me an e-mail.

CAROL:

Since when do you and Rona e-mail?

KATHERINE (O.S.)

We e-mail, mom. We’re friends on

Facebook. I’ve known her my whole

life.

CAROL:

You never e-mail me.

KATHERINE (O.S.)

You don’t ever use the computer.

CAROL:

And you e-mail Rona of all people?

How did she find out?

KATHERINE (O.S.)

She didn’t say. Mom, I’m just...

so sorry. It’s just terrible news.

What happened?

CAROL:

When I got up yesterday he was

just... he couldn’t walk. I carried

him to the car myself. They said

the cancer had spread everywhere.

His spine. You could tell...

looking at his eyes... it was time.

KATHERINE (O.S.)

You didn’t ask for help?

13.

CAROL:

Why. What for?

KATHERINE (O.S.)

Should you even be carrying things

like that...? Heavy things...

CAROL:

He was a dog, Kath. Not a thing.

And it was five in the morning.
