The Cider House Rules Page #3
From her window, the stepsister watches Homer leave the house
carrying his suitcase. Homer looks up at her as he walks to
the street.
EXT. ORPHANAGE - EARLY MORNING
It's after dawn, but still a little dark, as Homer walks to
the orphanage door, suitcase in hand. A HUGELY PREGNANT WOMAN
arrives at the same time. They stand awkwardly next to each
other, waiting for someone to answer the door. The woman is
crying. Homer reaches out and takes her hand.
HOMER:
Don't be frightened. Everyone is
nice here.
PREGNANT WOMAN:
Do you live here?
HOMER:
I just belong here.
The woman sniffles; she nods vaguely. The door opens. Nurse
Edna lets the woman in and embraces Homer.
LARCH (V.O.)
What could I do with him? He kept
coming back!
INT. LARCH'S OFFICE - DAY
Larch instructs an older Homer from "Gray's Anatomy." Homer
is bored and looks out the window.
LARCH:
Homer, if you're going to stay at
St. Cloud's, I expect you to be of
use.
Homer looks adoringly at Dr. Larch as Larch examines ANOTHER
PREGNANT WOMAN. Larch waves Homer over; he places the boy's
hand on the woman's abdomen, to feel the fetus kicking.
LARCH (V.O.)
But, in failing to withhold love,
had I created a true and everlasting
orphan? I had been too successful
with Homer Wells. I had managed to
make the orphanage his *home*.
Larch closes a door quickly behind him (so that Homer doesn't
see the ABORTION PATIENT in the O.R.)
Homer assists Larch in delivering a BABY.
EXT. INCINERATOR - DAY
Homer carries a white enamel pail to the incinerator. He
looks inside the pail; he stops.
