SCENE ONE: JACK AND JENNIFER ARE ON A PLANE ON THEIR WAY TO LAWRENCE'S COUNTRY. JENNIFER HAS THE WINDOW SEAT AND JACK IS SLUMPED DOWN IN HIS SEAT WITH HIS EYES SHUT.
oldEp286A
JENNIFER: You know I can't stop thinking about the last time I went to Lawrence's villa. You know I was practically kidnapped, all alone with my grandmother. I mean I didn't know when I'd see you again Jack or in that case if I'd ever see you again. But this time it's different. This time we have a plan and we're working together this time.

JACK: Ah, I wouldn't be so sure about that.

JENNIFER: What do you mean, what are you talking about?

JACK: I'm talking about this plan. I'm not going through with it.

JENNIFER: Jack, look, listen to me. Look I know that you're nervous okay. But just think about what happened in the class. You did a perfect jump.

JACK: A perfect simulated jump, right. It had nothing to do with reality. This is real. Jumping from a high altitude down into Lawrence's compound. I mean there's no.... no.... no instructor and no second chances.

JENNIFER: Look I understand that. I know that you're scared okay. I'm scared too. Not only of skydiving. I mean everytime I think about going inside Lawrence's villa again all I see is his face.

JACK: Don't think about it then.

JENNIFER: What do you mean, don't think about it. Jack I can't. It's a fight. It's a constant fight.

JACK: Well you're going to win.

JENNIFER: Not unless we do this exactly the way we planned.

JACK: Look I'm not trying to make this more difficult than it already is, really. And contrary to popular belief this isn't just about my concern for my skin.

JENNIFER: I know, I know that.

JACK: I mean.... this.... it's this.... it's this plan alright. It's.... it's.... I mean it's wrong, it's too forward, it's too.... ah.... too Rambo if you will. I mean.... I believe in something a little more tricky. I'm more of a backdoor man, you know.

JENNIFER: Tricky! Jack the last time we tried tricky you got caught and you got locked in a basement. I don't want that to happen to again.

JACK: I'm sorry about that.

JENNIFER: What.... you're sorry about what?

JACK: You know what I'm sorry about. What happened with Lawrence. I'm sorry, that shouldn't have happened.

JENNIFER: Jack I don't blame you. It's not your fault.

JACK: Well that's one. (Beat) But the point is just.... let's just do it my way and if we run into any kind of problems.... we'll do it your way.

JENNIFER: Alright but I'm just afraid that your way isn't going to work Jack.

JACK: If it doesn't work, we'll just put on the parachute and go back to Plan A.

JENNIFER: Okay.

 

THE ANNOUNCEMENT TO LAND COMES OVER THE INTERCOM AND JACK AND JENNIFER TIGHTEN THEIR SEATBELTS AND SIT BACK WORRYING ABOUT THE WHOLE THING. JACK GRABS JENNIFER'S HAND.

 

JACK: You're going to be alright? You're sure?

JENNIFER: Yeah, I'm going to be fine.


SCENE TWO: THEY LAND AND HEAD OUT TO THE PERIMETER OF LAWRENCE'S ESTATE WHERE JACK LOOKS FOR THE VILLA WITH BINOCULARS.

 

JENNIFER: Jack you know what, I think we should go back and lock the car. I don't think it's a good idea to....

JACK: Look there's nothing to worry about with that car. It's in the middle of nowhere. No one's going to bother it.

 

THE ESTATE IS SURROUNDED BY A VERY HIGH WIRE FENCE.

 

JACK: Not that this is going to be easy. I mean.... you know what I mean.

JENNIFER: I know what you mean.

JACK: Well.... well let's get to work.

 

JACK PEERS THROUGH THE BINOCULARS AT THE VILLA.

 

JACK: Uh, huh! There's Lawrence's villa right where.... right there in front of us. (Beat) Uh, huh, that's good. It's right there, right where we thought it would be. Right on target.

JENNIFER: Let me see Jack.

 

JENNIFER TAKES A LOOK.

 

JENNIFER: Oh well that's just great, there's also a dozen armed guards out front. Jack, we're never going to get past them.

JACK: We most certainly are.

JENNIFER: How?

JACK: Because the guards only.... they guard the perimeter, right. All we have to do is get up over the fence and then we can make our way through these bushes and we'll be able to get....

JENNIFER: There's no bushes, there's no bushes Jack.

ACK: There.... alright, then we'll dig a tunnel underneath the area....

JENNIFER: We'll build a tunnel with what?

 

JACK IS DESPERATELY TRYING TO THINK OF A WAY IN WITHOUT JUMPING.

 

JACK: Ah.... I don't.... they did it in Hogan's Heroes. I'm sure that we can figure out a way....

JENNIFER: Jack these a men with real guns. They're not going to be too shy about shooting us if they want to.

JACK: Look, let's just.... let's deal with one problem at a time, alright. Let's just find our way over it and then take it from there, right. And you said.... you said you'd go along with it, you know that.

JENNIFER: And Jack you also said that you'd go back to the original plan if something went wrong, right?

JACK: Alright, alright. Let's just take everything one step at a time, alright. Let's just try this and if we hit a snag we'll go back to your way.

JENNIFER: Okay.

JACK: Okay.

JENNIFER: Okay.

JACK: Good. Then if you don't mind, please?

JENNIFER: Okay.

JACK: Thank you.

 

JENNIFER MOVES AWAY FROM THE FENCE SO THAT JACK CAN ATTEMPT TO GET OVER IT. JACK GETS A FOOTHOLD IN THE FENCE THEN REACHES UP WITH HIS HANDS TO BEGIN CLIMBING. AS SHE TOUCHES THE FENCE HE GETS AT ELECTRIC SHOCK AND IS THROWN BACKWARDS ONTO THE GROUND.

 

JACK: AAAAAAARRRRGGGGGHHHHHH!

JENNIFER: JACK!


SCENE THREE: JACK HAS JUST TRIED TO CLIMB OVER THE FENCE LEADING INTO LAWRENCE'S ESTATE; HOWEVER, IT IS ELECTRIC AND JACK HAS RECEIVED A SHOCK. HE IS LYING ON THE GROUND, AND APPEARS TO BE UNCONSIOUS. JUST THEN JACK BEGINS TO SHIVER AND SHAKE AS HE SITS UP.

 

JACK: OUCH.... WHOA!

JENNIFER: Jack listen to me, can you hear me? Are you okay?

JACK: WHOA!.... Where am I?

JENNIFER: Are you alright? Are you okay?

oldEp286B

JACK IS REALLY DAZED AND SHAKEN.

 

JENNIFER: You know that little snag you talked about? You just hit it.

JACK: The fence.

JENNIFER: Yeah.

JACK: It's electric. Well there must be about a million other ways to get through this thing.

JENNIFER: Oh come on Jack, name one.

JACK: Aaah.... pole vault.

JENNIFER: Oh Jack, listen you promised me alright. You promised me that if we hit a little snag then we'd go back to the original plan.

JACK: Listen, I think we haven't given this enough of a chance to work through.

JENNIFER: I know that you're afraid to jump out of a plane but we don't have any other choice Jack. Now I want you to just think of me right now, okay.

JACK: Look I'm here aren't I?

JENNIFER: Right. But I can't turn back now. I have to go through with this.

JACK: Well you're not the only one who has to go through with this alright. I've got.... I've got a lot of reasons too.

JENNIFER: For Steve and Jo.

JACK: Well yeah.... and for someone else.

JENNIFER: Well that someone else would really like you to go along with her Jack. (Beat) Will you try it? Will you jump with me?

 

JACK TURNS TO HER WITH A WORRIED EXPRESSION ON HIS FACE.

SCENE FOUR: THE NEXT SHOT, THEY ARE BOTH ON BOARD A PLANE AND RIGGED UP TO PARACHUTE INTO LAWRENCE'S PROPERTY. JACK IS READING THE MANUAL FOR A LAST MINUTE REFRESHER.

 

JENNIFER: Jack, Jack, relax, look just relax. We're going to be fine. We're going to be just fine, okay.

JACK: We're.... we're supposed to make fifty jumps before we go one solo jump. I mean I.... how did you talk this guy into.... what did you do, what kind of line did you feed this flyboy to convince him that we could go up here? Did you tell him we were with the FBI?

JENNIFER: CIA.

JACK: Oh that's great! That's great! That's....

JENNIFER: What else was I supposed to tell him Jack? I had no choice.

JACK: I'm going to close my eyes now and when I open them I will be in my own bed with my own covers.

JENNIFER: Well that's not true. You're not going to do that because we have to go over the instructions again. Now give me that.

 

SHE TAKES THE INSTRUCTION BOOK FROM HIM.

 

JENNIFER: Now what's the first thing that you're going to do after we jump?

JACK: Scream.

JENNIFER: No, no Jack, you're going to check your altimeter.

JACK: My alti.... where, my alti what?

JENNIFER: This, this.

JACK: Oh.

JENNIFER: This is your altimeter okay. We're going to be jumping at an altitude between 7,000 and 12,000 feet. You're going to want to pull your ripcord between 2,000 and 3,000 feet and that will approximately be 60 seconds after we jump.

JACK: Meanwhile we're falling into the black endless void.

JENNIFER: Jack that's the whole point of jumping at night is so that when we land nobody on the ground will see us.

JACK: Oh they won't have to see us. They're going to hear us. They're going to hear this great big splat!

PILOT: We're at 65 and climbing. Any minute now.

JACK: OH!

JENNIFER: Okay!

JACK: OH!

JENNIFER: Are you ready?

 

JACK LOOKS SICK AND IN A DAZE.

 

JENNIFER: Jack! Jack, you got to snap out of it. It's almost time to jump.

JACK: No!

JENNIFER: What do you mean no?

JACK: I mean no, I'm not going.

JENNIFER: Jack come on, look at me.... Jack.

JACK: I can't move.

JENNIFER: I understand.

JACK: No I don't think you understand. I'm not talking psychologically. I mean I can't move quite literally. I'm stuck, right here. I.... can't move.

JENNIFER: Jack, you're stuck. You hooked yourself into the seat belt.

JACK: Well it said safety first. What....

PILOT: We're at 12,000 feet.

JACK: Oh!

PILOT: Call when you're ready.

JENNIFER: Are you ready?

JACK: No! I mean no. Look, if I told you I was ready, I'd be lying.

PILOT: This is it folks, we're over the area. It's now or never.

JENNIFER: Alright Jack, you don't have to go, alright. You don't have to do it.

 

JENNIFER GETS UP TO JUMP ON HER OWN.

 

JACK: No, no, wait, wait.

SCENE FIVE: JENNIFER IS ABOUT TO JUMP FROM THE PLANE, BUT JACK HAS STOPPED HER.

 

JENNIFER: What?

JACK: I just.... in spite of everything, listen I'm the last person I'd ever want to jump with.

JENNIFER: What are you saying? What do you mean?

JACK: If.... if you're all so fired up to take.... to have to take the plunge then I'll.... I'll take the plunge too. (Beat) You know what I mean.

JENNIFER: Yeah I know what you mean.

 

JACK AND JENNIFER GET READY AT THE DOOR OF THE PLANE. JACK IS STILL CHECKING THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL.

 

JENNIFER: ALRIGHT, THE SUPPLIES MADE IT.

 

JENNIFER WATCHES AS THEIR SUPPLIES HIT THE GROUND. THE WIND THEN BLOWS AWAY THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL OUT OF JACK'S HAND.

 

JACK: OOOOOH!

JENNIFER: Oh.

JACK: So did the manual.

JENNIFER: Right.

JACK: Uh!

JENNIFER: ARE YOU READY?

 

JACK IS LOOKING VERY SICK AND JENNIFER GRABS HIS HAND.

 

JENNIFER: Yes.

 

JACK IS SHAKING HIS HEAD AND EVERYTHING ELSE.

 

JENNIFER: Yes, we're going to go on three right.

JACK: Uh, uh, uh.

JENNIFER: ONE, TWO.... THREE.
oldEp286C
JENNIFER LURCHES FORWARD BUT JACK HOLDS TIGHT TO HER HAND AND NEITHER OF THEM JUMP.

 

JACK: Oh.... oh. NO!

JENNIFER: Jack what are you doing?

JACK: I just.... I have to tell you something.

JENNIFER: What?

JACK: Something, just in case both of us goes splat!

JENNIFER: What Jack, tell me.

JACK: I just.... I just remembered when I was a little kid I had this.... this pin headed teddy bear that got hit by a lawn mower and it blew the stuffing all over it and I remembered that in spite of the fact that it was pin headed I still liked it and it made me think of you, I mean not that you're pin headed or anything.... anyway I just don't want to see you get the stuffing knocked out of you. I kind of like it and ah.... I like you too.

JENNIFER: I like you too Jack.

JACK: Huh.

JENNIFER: And we're going to fine. Are you ready?

JACK: Oh ready, yeah, yeah.

JENNIFER: Alright, we're going to go on three.

JACK: On three, yeah, yeah.

JENNIFER: Ready?

JACK: Ready.

JENNIFER: ONE.

JACK: ONE.

JENNIFER: TWO.

JACK: AAAAARRRRRGGGGHHHHHH!

 

JENNIFER PUSHES JACK OUT OF THE PLANE.

 

JENNIFER: THREE.

 

SHE JUMPS OUT AFTER JACK.

 

JACK: YOU PUSHED MEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeeeee....

SCENE SIX: DOWN ON LAWRENCE'S PROPERTY, JACK LANDS WITH A THUMP AND ROLLS INTO A HOLLOW WRAPPED IN HIS PARACHUTE.

 

JACK: Oooooh.... oh Miss Horton you said, cut on three and you pushed on two. Where the hell are you?

 

SUDDENLY JENNIFER LANDS WITH A THUMP NEXT TO JACK.

 

JENNIFER: Ooooooh.

JACK: There you are.

JENNIFER: Hi Jack.

JACK: What took you so long, huh, huh? You hangin' up there in the trees or something?

JENNIFER: Well you know Jack, I tried to hold your hand but it's really hard when you were covering your eyes. Are you okay?

JACK: Oh I'm fine. I couldn't be better. How about yourself?

 

JACK IS FINDING IT HARD TO GET HIMSELF UNTANGLED AND JENNIFER HELPS HIM.

 

JENNIFER: I'm great, I'm just great. I told you we'd get into Lawrence's compound Jack and here we are huh. Look we got past all the guards, we got past all the electronic detectors. That's it. Now all we have to do is get over the garden wall and we're in. It's that easy, we're in.
oldEp286D
JACK: Oh we're in. Are you so sure about that?

JENNIFER: Yeah, I'm sure about that. The only thing between us and Lawrence's villa is the garden wall.

JACK: That's not what I meant. I'm talking about you. You're getting more and more nervous.

JENNIFER: What are you talking about? Of course I'm nervous. I just jumped out of an airplane Jack. I'm sure you're nervous too. In fact I know that you're nervous because you were nervous even before we jumped out of the plane.

 

JENNIFER IS TALKING FAST AND IS OBVIOUSLY SCARED.

 

JACK: Whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait a minute.

JENNIFER: What?

JACK: Are you really sure that you're ready to come back here?

JENNIFER: Well I never thought I would have to. I mean I never thought that I would have to come back to the place where.... to this place. It's a little scary.

JACK: Of course it's scary. I mean everything we do is scary. Just remember that we always seem to do scary things and bounce back. You face rattle snakes, you jump off ledges....

 

JENNIFER LAUGHS.

 

JACK: .... you.... ah.... hang out on ledges, you jump out of airplanes and you always live to tell the tale.

JENNIFER: I get your point. I think you're trying to cheer me up, huh?

JACK: Is it working?

JENNIFER: Yeah. It's working. I'm not going to back out now Jack. Not when we're so close. I mean there is a woman in the villa who might be able to help us put Lawrence away for a long time and we got to find her.

JACK: Well, no time like the present. That's what I always say. Shall we?

JENNIFER: Thank you Jack.

 

THEY BOTH CREEP OVER TO THE GARDEN WALL AND HIDE BEHIND IT.

 

JACK: Down, get down.

JENNIFER: Look we made it this far without being seen, alright. Remember the last time we were at this wall. I was on the other side and you were out here. I wanted to be with you so bad Jack and I couldn't.

JACK: I tell you what. You're going to stay right here. I'm going to go up over that wall. I'm going to find that maid and I'll get the information that we need okay.

JENNIFER: Jack you don't even know what she looks like.

JACK: Look I am a reporter. I know how to do this sort of thing. The point is you don't have to go.

JENNIFER: No, listen to me. Part of me doesn't want to. Part of me wants to forget about everything that happened here but I can't do that. Alright, I can't forget what Lawrence did to me and the only way I'm going to be able to live with it is if I do everything I can to make sure that he's punished.

JACK: I'm just saying that you don't have to do anything alright. I've already said that I'm willing to go over there for you.

JENNIFER: Jack, no you can't do it for me. Okay. I have to do it. I mean when Lawrence did.... I mean when he did that to me he turned me into a victim and I will always be a victim if I don't fight back on my own. I'll be okay.

JACK: Alright let's get started then.

JENNIFER: Right.

JACK: If you're so ready to fight, you can be the first one over then. Go on. Just get on.

 

JACK CROUCHES DOWN ON HIS HANDS AND KNEES AND JENNIFER CLIMBS ON HIS BACK.

 

JACK: Wait a minute.... OUCH.

 

JACK CRINGES AS JENNIFER STANDS ON HIS BACK. HE CONTINUES TO WHENCE AS SHE CLIMBS UP AND LOOKS OVER THE WALL.

 

JACK: Wait a minute, do you see anybody, any guards?

JENNIFER: No, I don't see anybody. Jack this is going to be easy, there's nobody around.

JACK: It's a trifle too easy if you ask me.

JENNIFER: No, you're just being paranoid alright. Now come on over before somebody does come.

 

THE CLIMB THE FENCE.

SCENE SEVEN: THEY HAVE MADE THEIR WAY INTO THE VILLA, AND THEN THEY FIND THEIR WAY TO LAWRENCE'S BEDROOM AND LOOK AROUND WITH FLASHLIGHTS. JENNIFER IS VERY SCARED WHEN SHE SEES THE BED.

 

JACK: Just remember, it's going to be different this time. (Beat) You're not alone.

JENNIFER: I know. I know that. (Beat) Maybe we should....

 

SUDDENLY THE LIGHT COMES ON AND LILA THE MAID ENTERS.

 

JACK: Ssshhhh.

JENNIFER: It's Lila!

JACK: Is it her?

JENNIFER: Yeah, it's Lila.

 

JENNIFER RUNS OVER TO THE VERY SURPRISED LILA.

 

JENNIFER: Lila.

LILA: What are you doing here?

JENNIFER: I came to see you. I need to talk to you.

LILA: I already told you that I can't tell you anything. You need to go.

JENNIFER: No, you need to help me. You need to help me. You may be the only one who can, alright? Now you listen to me. You were there. You were there the night that we were married and you heard me. You heard me screaming didn't you?

LILA: You both need to go really. It's very dangerous for you to be here.

JENNIFER: You know what he did. You know what Lawrence did to me.

LILA: I already told you I can't say anything.

JENNIFER: You can't or you won't?

LILA: I'm being watched.

JENNIFER: Lila just tell me, what you know? Lawrence will be punished. He won't be able to hurt you. He won't be able to hurt anybody ever again.

 

SOMEBODY OUTSIDE THE ROOM CALLS LILA.

 

LILA: Quick someone's coming! Hide. JACK: Quick, over here, over here, over here. Quick, get down, get down.

SCENE EIGHT: JACK AND JENNIFER HIDE IN THE CORNER WHILE LILA TALKS TO THE GUARD. HE TELLS HER THAT THEY WANT TO SEE HER OUT FRONT. SHE PUTS DOWN THE LINEN SHE WAS HOLDING AND AS SHE LEAVES SHE ACCIDENTALLY DROPS A PIECE OF PAPER ON THE CARPET. WHEN SHE IS GONE, JACK AND JENNIFER COME OUT OF HIDING.

 

JENNIFER: Alright.

 

JENNIFER STARTS RUNNING TOWARDS THE DOOR AND JACK GRABS HER.

 

JACK: Hey, hey hey, whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait a minute. Where do you think you're going?

JENNIFER: I'm not done talking to her Jack.

JACK: Not yet, you're not going out there. There's....

JENNIFER: Did you hear her? She was going to tell me something.

JACK: It's too dangerous out there.

JENNIFER: I don't care, I'm going.

JACK: You could....

 

JACK GLANCES DOWN AND SEES THE PAPER THAT LILA DROPPED.

 

JACK: Hey, wait a minute, wait a minute. Come back here.

 

HE PICKS UP THE NOTE.

 

JENNIFER: What is it Jack?
oldEp286E
JACK: It just looks like some sort of travel itinerary.

JENNIFER: It must be Lila's. I mean it wasn't here when we came in. (Beat) Jack this says that she's leaving the country. She can't leave the country. She can't leave the country. She has to help us.

 

THEY BOTH HEAR CAR DOORS SLAM SHUT OUTSIDE.

 

JENNIFER: Oh my....

 

JENNIFER WALKS TO THE FRENCH DOORS.

 

JACK: What.... wait a minute, you can't go out there. You cannot go out there.

JENNIFER: Jack she's getting in the car.

JACK: She's surrounded by guards.

JENNIFER: What are you talking about? We can't just let her go.

JACK: Look, you're going to bring them all down on top of us. She's not going to get away. Look, look at it. She doesn't leave until tomorrow. We have until tomorrow to stop her.

JENNIFER: Alright.

JACK: Alright.

JENNIFER: Alright, you're right. We'll stop her at the airport.

JACK: Yeah.

JENNIFER: Okay, so let's just get out of here. We'll go out that way, that's a good way.

 

SHE HEADS TO THE FRENCH DOORS AGAIN.

 

JACK: Not yet.

JENNIFER: What do you mean, not yet? Lila is all the evidence that we need Jack.

JACK: Still I'd feel a lot better if we had something else on Lawrence.

JENNIFER: There is nothing else Jack.

JACK: I don't know. I think if we take a little bit more time, look around, we may come up with something.

 

JACK GOES OUT THROUGH THE FRENCH DOORS AND LOOKS AROUND THE BALCONY.

 

JENNIFER: Jack what do you expect to find out here?

JACK: I just keep thinking that there was somebody besides the maid who heard you. I mean maybe there was some guards posted out here the other night.

JENNIFER: Well there aren't any here now.

 

THEY BOTH WALK BACK INTO THE BEDROOM.

 

JACK: Well I don't know, was there.... was there a door open?

JENNIFER: I don't know.

JACK: Do you remember.... what do you remember hearing?

JENNIFER: I don't know. I don't remember. I don't....

JACK: Look I'm just asking.

JENNIFER: All I remember is standing over here. That's what I remember. And I remember hearing Lawrence come in and that surprised me and then I remember....

JACK: Ssssh, keep it down.

JENNIFER: .... hearing myself telling him over and over again to leave me alone.

JACK: Look....

JENNIFER: And then I remember hearing myself yelling as he was hurting me.

 

JACK IS DISTRESSED HEARING HER RELATE WHAT HAPPENED THAT NIGHT.

 

JACK: Just....

JENNIFER: But he wasn't even listening to me. I screamed so loud and he didn't even hear me.

 

WHILE SHE IS TALKING JACK IS LOOKING AROUND THE ROOM. SUDDENLY HE SEES SOMETHING AND WALKS OVER TO IT.

 

JENNIFER: Jack what are you doing?

 

HE WALKS OVER TO A LARGE GOLD FRAMED MIRROR THAT IS ON THE WALL NEAR THE DOOR.

 

JENNIFER: Jack?

JACK: Ah.... I think maybe we should just get out of here now.

 

IT IS OBVIOUS THAT JACK HAS THOUGHT OF SOMETHING AND DOES NOT WANT TO TELL JENNIFER ABOUT IT.

 

JENNIFER: I think you're right. Let's go.

 

SHE WALKS OUT THE DOOR AND JACK STAYS A SECOND STARING AT THE MIRROR.

 

JACK: Yeah.

SCENE NINE: THEY SET UP CAMP ON THE GROUNDS AND ARE SITTING WITH A SMALL OIL CANDLE BURNING.

 

JENNIFER: Alright Jack, let's go over the game plan for tomorrow, okay. First thing we're going to do is we're going to sneak out of here and we're going to stop Lila at the airport.

JACK: There's one small problem with that. How do you plan to get back out? Same way we got in? You plan to.... ah.... parachute out?

JENNIFER: I don't know. We'll think of something.

JACK: Hmmm, we'll think of something. That's a plan.

JENNIFER: Well we always do, don't we Jack?

JACK: We always do. That's very comforting isn't it?

JENNIFER: Well this time we don't have any choice because we have to. Lila is our only hope at getting Lawrence.

JACK: Not necessarily.

JENNIFER: Why, you know something else?

JACK: I don't know, I just keep thinking that if we get back in there and we keep looking around, we're going to find something. And who knows, it could be.... it could be right under our noses.

JENNIFER: I hope you're right. I mean I really hope that this whole trip wasn't a waste.

JACK: I'm sorry that you had to come back here.

JENNIFER: Me too but I did have to.

JACK: So.... now that that's all said and done.... are you going to be okay?

JENNIFER: I'll be okay.

JACK: Good.

JENNIFER: But I need you to do something.

JACK: I've already supplied the s. Now what else could I do.

JENNIFER: I just need for you to hold me because I need to feel what's real.

JACK: Well I'm about as far from real as it gets.

JENNIFER: Jack you are the only one.... who can make me feel that way. There is no one else. And if I can't turn to you then there's nobody. There isn't anyone.

 

SHE TURNS AWAY FROM HIM AND LOOKS AT THE SKY. JACK BEGINS TO PLAY WITH HER HAIR AS A SONG BEGINS TO PLAY.
If you say you love me
Then I'll believe that's true
Trusting you is easy
Cause I believe in you.
There is nothing I would miss
As long as we're in love like this.
JACK TAKES HER IN HIS ARMS AND HOLDS HER CLOSE.
oldEp286F

SLOWLY HE MOVES AROUND TO KISS HER GENTLY ON THE LIPS. THEY KISS TENDERLY AND SIT HOLDING EACH OTHER IN THE DARKNESS.
All I have is all I need
And it all comes down to you and me
How far away this world becomes
In the harbor of each other's arms.

I feel like I've known you forever and ever
Baby that's how close we are
Right here with you is where my life has come together
And where love has filled my heart.
