I'll See You in My Dreams Page #6

Store Clerk removes a bottle from the shelf and shows it to

Carol.

STORE CLERK (CONT’D)

This one is very popular.

Carol takes the bottle and looks at the clerk over her

reading glasses. While they are talking, a MAN (70s) is

standing down the aisle from them with an unlit cigar in his

mouth, listening but not looking at them.

STORE CLERK (CONT’D)

What about... are you doing a

probiotic?

47 INT. GROCERY STORE - VITAMIN AREA - DAY 47

Carol continues to look around, her basket now full of

various bottles. She picks up a bottle and inspects it. The

Man with the unlit cigar comes up to her as she browses.

CIGAR MAN:

(pointing at bottle)

You don’t need all that.

Carol looks up to the Man.

CIGAR MAN (CONT’D)

You’re just right the way you are.

The Cigar Man walks away and Carol just watches him go.

49 INT. CAROL’S HOUSE - KITCHEN - DAY 49

Carol comes home with shopping bags in hand. She places them

on the counter. She reaches into a paper bag and pulls out a

cardboard box. She inspects it. CLOSE UP on the top of the

box is a sticker that says “HAZEL: CHERISHED PET OF CAROL

PETERSEN.” She opens the box and pulls out a keepsake tin.

Carol heads into the living room. She puts Hazel’s ashes in

the keepsake tin next to a very nice vase above her

fireplace.

Carol’s car pulls into a retirement community. The sign reads

“ROYAL OAKS.”

52 EXT. RETIREMENT COMMUNITY - DAY 52

Carol walks through the retirement community. Older people

walk around, mostly in groups and pairs. A few people sit in

lawn chairs outside of their apartments, chatting.

53 INT. SALLY’S HOUSE - LIVING ROOM - DAY 53

Carol sits at a card table playing bridge with three friends,

RONA, GEORGINA, and SALLY, all in their early to mid-70s. A

hand has been dealt and the four women are holding their

cards and rearranging them in their hands.

Three of them are drinking white wine, with the exception of

Sally who is drinking a can of Budweiser.

SALLY:

Rona, did you see Jerry today? At

the pool?

RONA:

Jerry who?

SALLY:

There’s only the one Jerry.

RONA:

There’s three Jerrys!

GEORGINA:

(counting on her fingers)

Jerry Davis, Gerry Phillips, and

Jerry Li.

RONA:

See?

GEORGINA:

Gerry Phillips is Gerry with a G,

though. Does he count?

SALLY:

Do you know who he was with?

RONA:

Which one?

SALLY:

Jerry Davis, for Christ’s sake.

CAROL:

Are we playing cards, girls? Your

bid, Georgina.

GEORGINA:

One spade.
