TERRY

JAKE doesn’t respond. Hoping she doesn’t see him. TERRY gives him a boot

JAKE

Ow! Jeez, Terry!

TERRY

Come on outta’ there!

JAKE

What’s with the gun?

TERRY

Thought I saw a bear!

JAKE

Why do you have a gun?

TERRY

Protection! Now come on, we gotta’ go.

TERRY heaves him up. JAKE breaks away

JAKE

Back from college.

TERRY

Yep. Now come on mom and dad are waiting.

TERRY

Don’t shush me!

JAKE

Not you!

TERRY

Oh is HE here?

THOMAS
