CUT TO:

INT . AUNT RUTH'S APARTMENT - DAY

The girls are still sitting on the leather couch as before,
but now silently off in their own worlds. After a moment...

BETTY
I wonder where you were going.

Betty's question hangs in the air. Slowly we move close to
Rita who is on the verge of remembering something.

Suddenly -

RITA
Mulholland Drive.

BETTY
Mulholland Drive?

RITA
That's where I was going... Mulholland
Drive.

BETTY
Maybe that's where the accident was.
There must be a police report. We could
call.

RITA
No.... I don't...

BETTY
We could call anonymously from a pay
phone... just to see if there was an
accident.

Rita sits worrying.

BETTY (cont'd)
Come on. It'll be just like in the
movies. We'll pretend to be someone
else. I want to walk around anyway. I'm
in Hollywood and I haven't even seen any
of it. Come on Rita. Do you feel up to
it?

RITA
Okay... but just...just to see.

BETTY
Just to see if there was an accident on
Mulholland Drive.

RITA
(tentatively)
Okay.

BETTY
Come on... let's find you something to
wear.

CUT TO:

AUNT RUTH'S BEDROOM - DAY

Betty laughs as she holds one of Ruth's dresses in front of
Rita.

BETTY
It's terrible ... My Aunt dresses like Miss
Marple.
(off a blank stare from Rita )
She's kind of a frumpy woman detective in
British movies.

Rita laughs along with Betty. Betty goes back in the closet.

BETTY (cont'd)
Here's something okay.

She brings out a pair of khaki pants.

BETTY (cont'd)
Try these on. You can wear one of my T-
shirts with it and it won't look bad with
those sandals.

CUT TO:

EXT. ADAM'S HOUSE - BEL AIR

Adam pulls into his driveway, but is blocked from entering
the garage by a poolman's truck. He gets out of the car and
looks at the truck - sees the insignia on the door which is a
blue square with the word "Gene" above and the word "Clean"
below. Adam hears steps behind him and turns. A JAPANESE
GARDENER is coming toward him smiling and bowing.

JAPANESE GARDENER
Ah, Mister ... you remember me. I am Taka.
your gardener. For long time I not see
you. I pleased to see you.

Taka reaches out his hand and Adam shakes it.

ADAM
Hello Taka. It's 'cause I'm never home
in the day time. It's good to see you
again. The garden looks great.

Taka bows, smiling and nodding, and goes back to work. Adam
heads toward the front door of his house.

CUT TO:

INT. - ADAM'S HOUSE - DAY

Adam enters, puts his 7-iron in his golf bag just inside the
door, then looks around. He can see the pool through a wall
of plate glass windows, but there is no one visible poolside.

ADAM
(calling out)
Lorraine...
(then louder)
Lorraine ... you home?

He hears a noise, something falling. He walks in the
direction of the noise. It leads him to his bedroom. His
expression darkens as he approaches the closed door. He
hears voices as he throws the door open.

LORRAINE and the poolman GENE are in bed.

LORRAINE
Now, you've done it!

GENE
Just forget you ever saw it. It's better
that way.

LORRAINE
What the hell are you even doing here?

Adam stands stunned for a moment. Then finds himself walking
over to the dresser and opening the top drawer. He removes a
large case.

LORRAINE (cont'd)
What are you doing?

Adam starts walking out of the bedroom with the case.

LORRAINE (cont'd)
THAT'S MY JEWELRY!!!
