FATIMA Sheriff Stevens! It's so nice to see you. Ellis turns to see Boyd standing in the doorway, blushing at Fatima's nudity. BOYD (averting his eyes) Hello, Fatima. Fatima sees the red in his cheeks, finds his discomfort endearing. She smiles a smile that could start a war. FATIMA Sorry, I guess I should -- (kisses Ellis on the cheek) Be good. (as she glides from the room) Boyd smiles. Shakes his head. As distasteful as he finds the rest of Colony House, he has a fatherly affection for Fatima. BOYD She doesn't change, does she? ELLIS What are you doing here? The smile fades from Boyd's face. There's a bond here that's been broken beyond repair. BOYD We lost a couple people last night. ELLIS Did "we?" And how exactly did "we" lose them? BOYD Lauren Pratt and her little girl Meagan. Lauren was the lady used to -- ELLIS (cutting him off) I know who Lauren is. BOYD Might be nice if you came to the service. Paid your respects. It was nice seeing you, Sheriff. You should come by more often!
