Wake Page #2

Synopsis: When things get tough for offbeat Carys Reitman, she does what any emotionally isolated, modern girl would do - she goes to strangers' funerals. At one fateful funeral, she unexpectedly meets Tyler, a man mourning his fiancée. Despite the warnings of her undertaker best friend Shane and her roommate Lila, she finds herself connecting to someone for the first time. Searching for answers, Carys goes to see her estranged mother to confront her past. And as she tries to open herself to the risks of love with Tyler, she realizes she may have more to fear than just a broken heart.

Excuse me?

I think I should just stay right here.

No, maybe a stroll will do you good.

- Oh, hey.

- Oh, honey.

Are you okay? Carys?

You okay?

I'm sorry. I'm fine now.

Yes, thank you.

- Let's go outside.

- Okay.

Okay.

[Sighs]

So, I guess you're gonna ride

to the cemetery with the family?

No.

Oh, well, you know,

I hadn't planned on it.

You brought your own car?

Oh, good.

I could use a break.

Where are you parked?

Oh, you know what?

It's a bit of a walk, so...

No, the fresh air will do us good.

Okay.

You were Anna's boyfriend?

She never mentioned me?

Yes, no, no, no, she did,

just in more general terms.

What terms were those?

Oh, the usual,

that you were sweet and romantic,

and... that she loved you...

...that you had a really,

really big, um...

That...

that sounds like her.

She used to always say

things are bigger in Texas.

You don't sound

like you're from Texas.

Austin.

It's not all howdys and y'alls

down there, you know?

Guess not.

- Where's your car?

- Right here.

That wasn't that far.

[Sobbing]

I need to see Anna.

Please, I need to see her again.

Mary, I'm sorry.

[Sniffles]

Where's her ring?

Where's her ring?

- Where's the ring?!

- What?

Her engagement ring is missing.

WOMAN:
Oh, my goodness,

that gorgeous ring.

- Where's her ring?

- What's going on?

Her ring. Her engagement ring's

not on her hand.

You better talk to them right now.

These funeral home guys,

they're all crooks.

Her poor fianc.

Can you imagine,

losing Anna, and now this?

WOMAN:

Poor fianc nothing.

Don't tell me you haven't heard

the rumors about what happened.

What happened?

- TYLER:
Where's her ring?

- IRVING:
Uh, what ring?

She had an engagement ring

on when she came in.

Uh, we'll look in her list

of possessions,

but she has to have any jewelry

she was brought in with.

Well, that's the thing.

She doesn't have all the jewelry

that she was brought in with.

We'll be happy to look

into that with you

at the funeral home after the service.

You better believe it.

Oh, okay.

Can you do me a favor

and just come in with me?

I mean, it'll only take a minute.

You know what?

I really have to be getting home.

I know. I know. I'm sorry.

But I have to get her ring back.

Tyler, I can explain.

It was an accident.

I, um...

- Oh, good.

- I'm so, so...

I... I... oh, I have

something in my eye!

You okay?

Oh, yeah, I'm fine. I'm fine.

I'm totally fine.

I just need to get it.

You know what?

I'll meet you there in a second.

- Okay.

- Okay.

You know,

this never happens.

The ring is on the list,

but for some reason...

Well, let's go in and look.

We'll go in and look.

[Sighs]
