Yeah, of course. * Will gives her a shoulder squeeze and keeps moving. As he * does, he turns to Otis and points at the terrorist’s * remains. WILL Can you do me a favor and toss a sheet on that? NEARBY: Suddenly a piece of FLAMING CEILING breaks free and lands on the floor, just feet from a little girl, RUBY, who is sitting with her sick MOTHER. The girl screams, scared... MOTHER Calm down, calm down... The ceiling tile throws up sparks... Ruby screams again... April moves over to help as Otis jumps in with an extinguisher to put out the fire. APRIL What’s your name sweetheart? RUBY Ruby. APRIL Beautiful name. I had an Aunt Ruby. She made these pancakes stuffed with blueberry jam that I still dream about. Bet you didn’t know you could stuff a pancake did you? This gets Ruby’s attention away from the chaos. RUBY How do you stuff a pancake? APRIL
She made this special batter, some family recipe. She’d cook ‘em up and then would make a little cut in the side and inject the blueberry jam with a special syringe.
