47.
TODD What kind of attorney? LESLIE NEWTON
(beat) End-of-life. Estate planning. I really shouldn’t say anything more... TODD Where is he? Is he already dead? Joan cuts in, very forcefully, and shuts this all down: JOAN We’re sorry to have bothered you. Thank you very much. Todd, let’s go. Todd . TODD What? Mom! But, wait, I - hey... Joan forcibly hustles Todd back into her car. INT. JOAN'S CAR - DAY Joan starts the car and ROARS away: NOW SPEEDING. Todd is terrified/surprised. And then, Joan pulls from her coat... JOAN
It’s Harry’s laptop!! It was in a box marked Goodwill! It was there with a pair of his shoes and a shirt I recognized! They’re giving all his things away! TODD
So, you don’t want me LYING - but it’s OK for you to STEAL from the GOODWILL? Joan makes a quick stop, and thrusts the laptop at Todd: JOAN Open it! Find out where he is! Track him! Do it! Do your thing! TODD Mom. It’s a laptop, not a crystal
ball. And he probably already... See, he deleted all his files. (beat) But I’ll bet he forgot to wipe his stored passwords... OK wait, what email does he use? JOAN HMcD123@aol.com.
