In Her Shoes Page #5

Synopsis: Two sisters, plus a dead mother, a remarried father, and a hostile step-mother. The sisters, each in her way, have perfected the art of losing. The elder, Rose, is an attorney, responsible, lonely, with a closet full of shoes. The younger is Maggie, beautiful, selfish, and irresponsible. Her drunken behavior gets her tossed by her step-mother from her dad's house; worse behavior gets her tossed from Rose's apartment. Then, while searching in her father's desk for money to filch, Maggie finds an address; the past and the future open up to her and, with any luck, may open to her sister as well.

Thanks for the drinks and the fun,

and, uh, we'll see you guys later.

Well- I mean, wait, wait.

Hang on, hang on.

Maybe we can go do something.

What the hell is that?

It's Honey Bun Two.

You bought a dog.

No, I borrowed him.

I didn't want to be alone last night.

I had- I had a bad night.

So did I, Maggie, several of them...

but you don't see me stealing dogs.

I was scared.

There were these guys and-

- Of course there were.

- And I got home, and you were gone. I-

My plane was late.

I have to be in court in 20 minutes.

I missed two days of work for nothing,

which means I'm gonna have to work forever.

And now I'm getting a cold...

so I don't have room in my head

for your problems right now.

Just have my sheets cleaned

and the dog out...

by the time I get home.

[ Door Closes ]

My car has a boot on it!

How the hell did my car

get a boot on it?

Oh, I was trying to tell you.

I-I used it the other day-

Five years I've had that car,

not one ticket.

You use it-without permission-

for two days.

- Melanie Dillon.

- Melanie, it's me.

- Hi, Rose.

- There's an emergency,

and I can't make it to court.

- Can you send someone to cover for me?

- Got it.

Thank you.

You ruin everything.

I can't take this anymore, Maggie.

I can't.

I want you out.

Now. Today,

before I get home from work.

- Where am I supposed to go?

- That is not my problem!

You are your problem!

You figure it out!

[ Sighs ]

[ Door Slams ]

- How was Chicago?

- Cold.

Sorry I couldn't swing it.

- Things were kind of crazy around here.

- Yeah, I know.

I work here too.

[ Sighs ]

You know, Jim...

if you say you're gonna be in Chicago,

you should be in Chicago.

And if you can't make it, if you know you're
