Sam begins to write up the ticket.
ASHLEY:
Can’t you give ’em a break?
SAM:
Get in the car, Ashley. Now.
ASHLEY:
But, Mom!
Sam shoots his daughter an intimidating glance.
BRET:
No sweat, babydoll. We’ll hook up
later.
SAM:
(threatening)
Over my dead body.
INT. SAM’S COP CAR (HIGHWAY) -DAY
Mike grins from the front seat as Ashley climbs in back.
MIKE:
You have the right to remain
silent. Anything you say can and
will be used...
ASHLEY:
Shut up, dork.
Sam hands Bret the ticket.
BRET:
Larry, do we know anybody at City
Hall who can mark this go away?

LARRY:
Your Dad is the Mayor.
BRET:
Oh, yeah.
(to Sam)
He signs your paycheck.
SAM:
The next time you put my
daughter’s life in danger, I’ll
show you exactly how little that
means to me.
Bret and Larry feel her resolve.
BRET:
Relax, bee-otch. It’s all good.
The punks remount their bikes.
SAM:

The punks REV their BIKES and defiantly wheelie toward

MIKE:

SAM:

Sam STARTS the CAR and drives toward town.
ASHLEY:
Do you get off on humiliating me?
SAM:
This bad girl act doesn’t suit
you, Ash.
ASHLEY:
I’m just trying to have fun.
Don’t you remember what it’s like
to grow up here?
SAM:
That’s what scares me.

Sam reaches over and opens the glove box. She pulls out
a stun gun. Mike passes it through the bars to Ashley.
SAM:
I told you to keep this with you.
Ashley slides the zapper into her backpack.
ASHLEY:
You are so over protective.
Mike and Ashley lip-sync along with Sam’s response.
SAM:
A mother’s job is to protect her
children.
ASHLEY:
You need to start trusting me.
SAM:
I’d like to. But you keep
skipping classes to go to the
dunes with Bret.
ASHLEY:
Why do you hate him so much?
SAM:
I don’t hate him. I just want you
to have a future. I thought you
wanted to get out of town. Go to
med school.
ASHLEY:
Maybe I want to stay. I could get
pregnant by nineteen. Then
divorce with a couple of kids I
can’t handle. Slap on a badge and
SAM:
(deeply hurt)
Thanks for the flashback.
They drive on in painful silence. Mike turns ON the
RADIO.
HARLAN (V.O.)
