PEGGY:

If the pastries aren't here by nine

thirty, call Monica and threaten

her life.

Peggy gets into the car, and blows a kiss to Beth.

PEGGY:

I'll be back by noon.

Peggy drives off as MONICA drives up. She exits her car and

begins to unpack cake boxes.

BETH:

Hi Monica. You just missed Mom.

MONICA:

Sorry I'm late. My Bobo's back in

town.

EXT. KRISTIN'S COIFFURES HAIR SALON

INSERT:
Sign: KRISTIN'S COIFFURES

Peggy exits with a fifties flip. From a distance she looks

like a fifties teenager. She nervously looks at her

reflection. Maybe this was a mistake. Too late now.

INT. PEGGY'S CAR — DRIVING

Peggy is driving. On her car radio, we HEAR a local PHONE—IN

TALK SHOW.

WOMAN'S VOICE (V.O.)

Hi. I'm Dolores Dodge. We're taking

calls today on surrogate mothers.

Wombs for rent. I want to know how

you feel..

PEGGY:

Oh, Dolores.

Peggy switches stations until she finds the news.

EXT. STREET CORNER

Peggy stops for a red light. Her eye is caught by a Mercedes

stopped next to her. Behind the wheel is a striking woman of

her age, CAROL HEATH. They stare curiously for a beat, then:

PEGGY:

Carol!

CAROL:

Peggy Sue!

They pull over to the side of the road.

EXT. SIDE OF ROAD

Exiting the cars, they hug.

CAROL:

I haven't seen you in years. In all

that time, haven't you at least

tried another hair style?

Peggy tries to laugh off her embarrassment.

PEGGY:

1 just did it for the reunion. I

thought it would be fun.

CAROL:

You're probably the only one who

could carry it off.

INT. LOVIN' OVEN — DAY

Peggy and Carol enter as Beth finishes up with a customer.

Peggy walks behind the counter as the customer exits.

BETH:

Where were you? You said you'd be

back at twelve.

PEGGY:

This is my old friend Carol.. I

told you about her.

Beth and Carol exchange hellos.

BETH:

r was worried about you You didn't

even call. You're always on my case

if I don't call..

PEGGY:

How do you like my hair?

BETH:

It looks great. Don't change the

subject. You know how busy

Saturdays are. And I can't do the

icing. I always mess up the roses.

You're not being very responsible.

Peggy takes over the work of decorating the large pennant

shaped cake in silver icing: 25th ReunionBuchanan High.'

CAROL:

Who's the mother around here?

BETH:

Sometimes I wonder.

INT. TELEVISION STUDIO

A television studio set made up of platforms covered with

black cloth. Placed around the platforms on different levels

are projection TVs, regular TVs, microwave ovens and other

expensive, futuristic appliances. Charlie sits at one of them

(or a table) as a CHINESE WAITER rushes in and puts a tray of

fortune cookies down.

WAITER:

Here Charlie, extra fortune

cookies. Good luck.
