2. His uniform is well-kept, though a bit frayed and worn. It also looks more like a state trooper's uniform than that of a small town sheriff. The wind begins to howl. Boyd stops, refusing the urge to quicken his pace. He takes a deep breath, checks the sun hanging low in the sky. He continues down the street. EXT. FRANK AND LAUREN'S BACKYARD - EARLY EVENING MEAGAN PRATT (6), adorable, swings on a creaky, homemade backyard swing. LAUREN PRATT (late 20s) comes into the yard. LAUREN Time to come in, sweetie. MEAGAN Just five more minutes. Please? LAUREN (kneels down in front of her) It's gonna be dark soon. You don't wanna be out here when it gets dark, do you? (Meagan emphatically shakes her head) Alright, well, come on in then. Lauren takes her by the hand and leads her to the house. EXT. TOWN - EARLY EVENING Boyd continues down the quiet street, passing the TOWN DINER. It's your basic small town diner, yet curiously, like the pool, it's on a residential street among the houses. The OWNER waves to Boyd as he pulls the shutters closed behind the plate glass doors. Boyd nods and continues on. INT. TOWN CLINIC, ANH DUNG'S ROOM - EARLY EVENING ANGLE ON : A CHESS BOARD. A MAN'S HAND MOVES A PAWN ONE SPOT FORWARD. ANH DUNG (O.S.) (in Vietnamese) Ha! Bay gio anh dang gap rac roi . DEPUTY KENNY NGUYEN (25, Vietnamese) plays chess with his father, ANH DUNG NGUYEN (early 60s), a once proud, strong man suffering from dementia. Kenny's uniform is different than Boyd's, more like a crossing guard's uniform. It's also newer, less worn.
