15 INT LIVINGROOM - NIGHT 15
They have drinks in the livingroom
FIONA:
Well at least we’re all waiting
together.
WILLIAM:
You wouldn’t say that if you were
waiting for a transplant.
PHOEBE:
(to William)
Who have you become all of a
sudden? Jesus, you sound like one
of those “Stand up For Canada”
conservative commercials.
FIONA:
(winks at William)
Well he’s not as young as he used
to be Phoebe.
Grant is poking the fire. His hands covered in soot.
9.
WILLIAM:
I just don’t think you can ignore
how serious a problem these waiting
lists are.
FIONA:
I think they are a problem. I just
shorter line for those who can
afford it and longer lines for
those who can’t. Oh look, now
you’ve made me all earnest and
boring.
Grant looks down at his sooty fingers. He gets up and as he
passes Fiona, he touches her face, leaving a big sooty
fingerprint on her cheek. She looks up at him knowingly. She
knows there’s a mark on her cheek and tries hard not to
smile. He tries not to smile too. It doesn’t really work. He
sits down.
FIONA:
You’re an idiot. Do you know that?
GRANT:
It worked for you.
FIONA:
It’s a wonder I ever brought him
home to the parents.
16 INT LIVINGROOM- JUNE 2003- NIGHT 16
They eat dinner.
FIONA:
It was one of those craft shows
where you look around and wonder
that the laws of supply and demand
have allowed for the production of
so many macrame ducks.
PHOEBE:
God those are everywhere. What do
you do with them.
GRANT:
You’ve got one of those as a
little, whatdoyoucallit, light
fixutre holder or whatever it is.
10.
PHOEBE:
I do not. Oh wait a minute I do.
Fiona gave it to me.
FIONA:
Yes I did!
Fiona laughs. holds up the wine bottle.
FIONA:
Would anyone like some more...
She stops, totally unable to find the word she’s looking for.
FIONA:
Some more...
Grant looks at her, looks at the HART’s to see their
reaction.
FIONA:
Ween.
She furrows her brow. Stares at the wine bottle.
FIONA:
Wane. Wane....
GRANT:
No, but I’ll have some wine.
PHOEBE and William stare at her. William breaks the silence.
WILLIAM:
Yes. Yes that would be wonderful
Fiona. Some more “wane.”
They laugh.He holds his glass out to her. Fiona doesn’t move
to fill it. She stays standing there, thinking. Begins
talking as though to no one in particular.
FIONA:
The thing is...

EXT LAKE- FLASHBACK TO:SUNSET -JANUARY -2003 18
Fiona is skiing around the lake at sunset. She looks
determined, focussed. Gradually she slows down.
10A.
Glides a little. Her focus becomes less clear, her face more
and more blank.
