Step 4 of 5
This episode is easy to guess. The scene is interesting, and is part of the original script. It has surely happened, in this way or in another. But if you read carefull, there is ONE word that is wrong, surely wrong, it contradicts all that we see in the episodes. One single word, not a concept or something you might wonder about. What is that word?
Once you have guessed, go to that episode script, where this scene was copied from, and click that word. The link to the next step is hidden there.
43 INT. RESTAURANT POWDER ROOM - DAY
CLOSE ON CATHY
Her face appears in the powder room mirror. As she combs her hair we can SEE that her scars have been virtually removed. When she turns her head we SEE the one scar that could not be repaired. It runs down the right side of her face, just in front of her ear. With her hair down, it’s almost completely hidden. She exits the powder room...
44 INT. FOUR SEASONS RESTAURANT - DAY
FOLLOW as Cathy moves through the elegant dining room to the table where she and her father are having lunch...
MR. CHANDLER
You look terrific. When do you think you’ll be coming back to work?
CATHY (a beat)
Dad, I’m not coming back. I’ve decided to leave the firm.
MR. CHANDLER
What are you talking about??
CATHY
I was never very good at corporate law, in fact I was a disaster..
MR. CHANDLER
Nonsense!
CATHY
Dad, thing’s have changed...
MR. CHANDLER
How?? What’s changed...?
CATHY
What happened, changed me. You’ve got to accept that...
MR. CHANDLER
How can I? You refuse to tell anybody what happened those days you were missing. Where were you?? Why won’t you tell me?
CATHY
I’m not even sure myself, but that’s not the point...
(takes a deep breath)
Once you become a victim it changes you. You see things differently.
You see all the people being hurt and the lives being destroyed.
I’ve got the skills to help. I want to be more involved - maybe work in the D.A.’s office...
MR. CHANDLER
(upset)
Prosecuting criminals?! Catherine, that’s ridiculous!
CATHY
Either help me or don’t -- but don’t call me ridiculous...
MR. CHANDLER
You’re having some kind of reaction to what happened. You need more time...
CATHY
I know what I need -- I know what I’m doing...
MR. CHANDLER
I’m not so sure, anymore...
CATHY
(from the heart)
Dad, I can’t go back to the way it was.
(beat)
I need your encouragement...
MR. CHANDLER
(sadly musing)
You were always going to work with me -- you were always going to work at the firm. That wasn’t a fantasy, was it?
CATHY
(smiles sympathetically)
No, Dad...
(quietly)
But things are different now...
Difficult? A little help: the word you are looking for is wrong, because it is not right.
