CARTER:
I thought you said you could get the
afternoon off to tidy the house!
Hurriedly they enter - CARTER shutting the door behind...MIK walks into
MIK:
I'm sorry, I couldn't - when is she due?
CARTER:
(Tidying hallway) At 2.00...
MIK looks at her watch and GRIMACES - suddenly the doorbell rings and
both girls look round...
MIK:
(Whispering) You didn't tell me her
name.
They walk to then door...
CARTER:
LESLIE...
The door swings open to reveal a small, business like man, average and
well dressed with piercing eyes. He turns and extends his arm...
STECKLER:
STECKLER...LESLIE STECKLER.
18 INT DAY BEDROOM - STECKLER is looking round at an empty room. It seems
good for him. MIK and CARTER stand in the background. CARTER is
obviously uneasy about something.
STECKLER turns round, smiling...
STECKLER:
I like it...
CARTER steps forward,
(CONTINUED)
18 CONTINUED:
CARTER:
You see MR STECKLER, er, I think that we
may have wasted your time. (Laughs
awkwardly) I don't know why I didn't say
something earlier - It's just that we're
looking for a girl...The advert was for
a girl.
STECKLER seems shocked - he pulls a paper from under his arm and opens
it...A large red circle rings a small ad
STECKLER:
Well - the ad just said third
person...(Awkwardly) It must have been a
printing error.
He shows CARTER the ad, which does indeed say 'Third Person...' CARTER
looks at MIK who returns a don't look at my face.
STECKLER:
It doesn't mention 'females only'
CARTER:
I really don't know what to say
STECKLER seems depressed, but still maintains a polite attitude.
STECKLER:
I'm really very sorry - I was banking on
this coming through, because it's only
five minutes from my surgery...
MIK:
Surgery? Are you a doctor?
STECKLER:
No - a dentist
A professional, CARTER smiles - she is beginning to warm to this man.
STECKLER roots in his pockets pulling out some letters and his
wallet...A fly whizzes around his head, annoying him. He looks a little
nervous.
STECKLER:
I have all my references ready - and I
can pay the first month and deposit now.
It really is a glowing reference!
(CONTINUED)
18 CONTINUED (2):
STECKLER extends his arm with the letters of reference. CARTER takes
them and looks at the first as STECKLER opens his wallet and removes
some notes. A huge wad remains - this guy is loaded.
CARTER nods approvingly at the reference as STECKLER holds out the
money.
CARTER:
MR STECKLER - would you excuse us for
one moment?
STECKLER nods his head to oblige
19 INT DAY KITCHEN - CARTER and MIK stand in the kitchen ,quietly
discussing. CARTER can see STECKLER in the LIVING ROOM through a crack
in the door. He is innocently looking out of the back garden window,
smiling approvingly.
