EXT. FRONT LAWN

KIT:

Hi, I'm Kit. I'm not keeping you

from anything important, am I?

HOLLY:

No.

KIT:

Well, I was just messing around over

there, thought I'd come over and say

hello to you.

(smiling)

I'll try anything once.

(pause)

What's your name? I said mine.

HOLLY:

Holly.

KIT:

Listen, Holly, you want to take a

walk with me?

HOLLY:

What for?

KIT:

Well. I got some stuff to say. Guess

I'm kind of lucky that way. Most

people don't have anything on their

minds, do they?

Holly eyes him suspiciously.

EXT. STREET

They walk down the middle of the street. Holly has accepted

his offer.

KIT:

Oh, incidentally, my last name is

Carruthers. Sounds a little too much

like "druthers", doesn't it?

HOLLY:

It's okay.

KIT:

Well, nobody asked me what I thought.

They just hung it on me.

Holly breaks the silence that follows.

HOLLY:

You still in school?

KIT:

Nah, I got me a job.

HOLLY (O.S.)

Doing what?

KIT:

Well, I don't mind getting up early,

so I got a job throwing garbage...

I'm not in love with the stuff, okay.

In the distance we hear Holly's FATHER calling her. She eases

off.

HOLLY:

That's my father. I got to run.

KIT:

Hey, wait a minute. When am I going

to see you again?
