9 INT. HOSPITAL ROOM. DAY. 9
Sally lies in bed, knitting, as she watches Project
Runway. She is in a hospital gown but otherwise she seems
fine. Don and Ron sit beside Sally. They watch the show
as well. There is a nurse changing Sally’s IV.
RON:
Oh, that’s really creative. I would have
never thought to do that with denim.
DON:
He wouldn’t.
SALLY:
Oh, I would. I think that’s terrific.
A10 INT. HOSPITAL HALLWAY. DAY. A10
John walks down the hospital hallway and pauses just
before entering his Mom’s room. He takes a breath...
then walks in.
B10 INT. HOSPITAL ROOM. DAY. B10
John enters.
JOHN:
Hey, mom.
Sally lights up when she sees him.
SALLY:
Oh my God--Look who’s here! How did you
know?
John looks to his Dad who smiles.
SALLY (CONT’D)
Donald!
Don gives a satisfied laugh as he hugs his son.

How you doing?
John looks at her wrist. It is all bandaged up.
JOHN (CONT’D)
What happened to your hand?
SALLY:
Brain tumor. Have you been smoking?
JOHN:
What? No?
John pats his brother on the shoulder.
RON:
Hey.
SALLY:
You smell like an ashtray.
JOHN:
Uh...
DON:
Don’t lie to your mother. She almost died
today.
RON:
She didn’t almost die.
DON:
That’s not what the doctor said.
RON:
That wasn’t a doctor. He was a nurse. We
haven’t seen a doctor yet. And you’re
scaring mom.
SALLY:
I’m not scared. I just don’t want John to
get lung cancer.
JOHN:
(to his mother)
I only had one.
SALLY:
Well, don’t have anymore. You’re going to
be a father soon.
JOHN:
I know. I know.

Jason? Jason Owens?
SALLY:
Yeah, that’s it.
JOHN:
Wow, he’s a nurse? That guy was such a
burn out in high school.
