38.
ACT THREE INT./EXT. JOAN’S CAR - MORNING Joan, upset, drives to her office. To make herself feel better, she tries calling her oldest child JON: JON (VOICEMAIL GREETING) (stern) You’ve reached General Jon Enright, Oregon National Guard (beep!) JOAN Yes hi, it’s Mom. Just calling to say - hello. Not urgent. I know you’re busy. You don’t have to call me back. Bye. She hangs up. Pause. She mutters bitterly to herself: JOAN Not that you would anyway... INT./EXT. ALLISON’S CAR - DAY Allison drives Todd through downtown. TODD Thanks for driving me. My car just needs a new - engine. ALLISON Why are still looking for Harry if you’re so mad at Mom? TODD
I am not looking for her . I am looking for me . I just want to know where he is and what the hell he’s doing. ALLISON You never liked him. TODD Neither did you! ALLISON I liked him for Mom. She liked him. They were - happy. I guess. TODD He was always watching “apocalypse” specials on the Nature Channel. And buying “crypto coin.” Like some kinda doomsday prepper. Not to mention he has disappeared on our Mother.
