JOY:

Hey, it’s nothing our butterfly

curtains couldn’t fix. I read

somewhere that an empty room is an

opportunity.

ANGER:

Where did you read that?

JOY:

It doesn’t matter. I read it and

it’s great. We’ll put the bed

there. And the desk over there...

Joy projects an IMAGINATION of Riley’s furniture.

FEAR:

The hockey lamp goes there...

INSIDE OUT 16.

ANGER DISGUST:

Put the chair there. Well, the trophy collection

goes there.

SADNESS FEAR:

Posters... Stars! I like that.

JOY:

Now we’re talking! Let’s go get our

stuff from the moving van!

INT. SAN FRANCISCO HOUSE - DAY

Riley dashes down the stairs as Mom and Dad enter the house.

Dad is on the phone.

DAD:

Alright. Goodbye.

(hangs up; to Mom)

Well, guess what? The moving van

won’t be here until Thursday.

MOM:

You’re kidding.

INT. HEADQUARTERS

FEAR:

The van is lost?! This is the worst

day ever!

ON THE SCREEN:
Mom and Dad ARGUE.

MOM DAD:

You said it would be here I know that’s what I said. *

yesterday! That’s what they told me!

FEAR (O.S.)

Mom and Dad are stressed out!

FEAR/ANGER/DISGUST/SADNESS

They’re arguing!/What are we going

to do?/This is so stressful./What

is their problem?

Joy runs to storage and grabs what looks to be a LIGHTBULB.

JOY:

I’ve got a great idea!

She clicks the IDEA into the console.

INT. SAN FRANCISCO LIVING ROOM - DAY

Riley’s face lights up. Riley grabs her hockey stick. Puts a

wad of paper in play.

MOM DAD:

Did you even read the Honey, you act like this is

contract? my fault--*

RILEY:

Andersen makes her move. She's

closing in!

DAD:

(grabbing a broom)

Hey! Oh, no you’re not!

RILEY:

She’s lining up for the shot!

DAD:

Coming behind you! Watch out!

She slides past him. Knocks the “puck” into the fireplace.

RILEY:

She shoots and she scores! Yeah!

A happy memory rolls in. Joy’s back in charge.
