21Yeah.
LUKE:
JOHN:
Did you hit him?
Yeah.
LUKE:
Good.
JOHN:
Where did you hit him?
LUKE:
Near the swings.
Wow.
JOHN:
I bet that hurt.
Yeah.
LUKE:
22 INT. COUNTY JAIL - ENTRY HALL -- DAY 22
- John waits in a long line, mostly women. He glances over
at the pleasant and colorful play area in the corner and
sees children playing. Luke plays by himself.
- John puts his key ring in a plastic container. The guard
takes it and puts the keys with other visitors' belongings.
John guides his son toward the metal detector. Luke walks
through and the buzzer goes off.
John instinctively moves forward to help. A guard stops him
with a hand on his chest. On the other side of the metal
detector another guard runs a wand over Luke, pulls something
from his pocket, looks at it curiously.
It's a toy!
JOHN:
The guard runs the wand over the child again; no screech.
The guard waves John through. No beep. John kneels and
pulls on Luke's jacket.
JOHN (CONT'D)
Don't worry. We'll get it back.
23 INT. COUNTY JAIL - CORRIDOR -- DAY 23
They walk along the hall with all the other visitors.
WHITE 9-10-09 12.
24 INT. COUNTY JAIL - CONTACT VISITING ROOM -- DAY 24
John stares out the window at the city beyond. Life seems
so close.
He looks back into the large communal visiting room; a dozen
round tables and plastic chairs. The concrete block walls
are covered with naive paintings in bright colors and messages
of hope. Luke plays at his feet with a basket of Legos.
The door at the far side buzzes, a guard opens it and
prisoners in red jump-suits marked VISITING ROOM enter.
Lara enters and looks around. She is pale, thin and her
hair has returned to its natural color. Lara hurries to him
and gives him a real kiss. She breaks and steps to Luke,
who plays with his back to her.
