The Rebound Page #4

Synopsis: Sandy, upon discovering her husband's infidelity while watching her son's birthday video, leaves the suburbs and moves into the city. She gets an apartment that's above a coffee house where she befriends one of the workers, Aram, a guy whose wife only married him so she could get a green card. Aram's family thinks he's wasting his life and education by working in the coffee house. Soon after moving into the apartment, Sandy hires Aram to be her nanny while she takes on work for the first time since her children were born. It isn't long when Aram and Sandy find they get along wonderfully and start to date. But the question is: is their relationship real or is it, in fact, just a rebound for both of them?

Not that he's a bad little boy

just misguided, falling in with the wrong crowd.

Are you talking about me? I only hang out

with you and Dad?

The battles are not only fought on

the battlefield, Roberto but also in the soul.

My soul is fine. Great.

What does his future hold?

Mom, he's not a palm reader.

A new job is in order.

Luckily, my cousin is a head hunter

are you interested in business, Aram?

Yes

Kids, your babysitter's here.

Come say hello.

Sadie usually goes to bed a bit later than Frankie,

but due to her unscheduled

emergency surgery

she'll be going to bed the same time. - Oh my God.

Are you sure I should be staying with her

after she just had surgery?

This was her surgery.

I told you it was dead

when I found it.

Yes, but I highly doubt

its organs have been harvested.

-- I hate you.

-- Can I play Wii?

For half an hour.

-- You're gonna be okay, right?

-- Yeah

Truth is, I didn't know if I want to go on this date,

it's just my friend, she's kinda

forcing me. Things we need to get with.

Release some tension.

Do I look okay? Everything's in order.

It seems to be.

-- Goodbye, Frankie.

-- Bye.

-- Hey Frank.

-- Call me Pablo.

He also had some cranial seizures as well as TMJ.

So what did you do?

I went right home and I took out my skeleton.

-- Your skeleton?

-- It's really as weird as it sounds.

I have this bone replica skeleton, keep it the house

and I use it to figure stuff out.

This way I can put it in different positions and see how

they affect his bone structure.

-- It's a him?

-- Yes it's him.

Thought it would be weird if it was a her.

That way people might think

I'm seeing somebody,

and it might actually drive away

beautiful women like you.

I'm a mom.

Why did I say that?

It's okay, it's alright, I know. It's true.

You are a mom.

And you are incredibly beautiful.

You have excellent posture.

Excuse me for just a second.

You haven't told me much about yourself. / i

My God.

-- Hello

-- I'm here.

I thought I'd lost you for a second.

No, I grew up just outside

San Francisco.

That's a great town. / i

Do you have any hobby? / i

Just take care of my kids.

No, no, that's not / i

a hobby. / i

I used to like to windsurf.

Longboard? Shortboard? / i

Ocean, lake, what? / i

Lake, mostly lake.

I competed when I was younger.

Competed in windsurfing,

That's impressing.

So?

You ..like the beautiful you, you

You are fascinating.

What's your normal job?

--I work at the coffee shop.

-- I mean your real job?

It was my real job.

but you are in the blowup suit too.

That was just once, I quit there.

-- Didn't you go to college?

-- Yes

I hope I'll have a real job

by the time I'm your age.
