A STREET OF PINE VALLEY - NIGHT

Taylor is running like there is no tomorrow. The street is abandoned, as rain falls relentlessly against the Earth’s surface. Taylor runs, not knowing where he is going, or what he is doing. All he knows is he has to get away. Away from the dreadful truths untold that were given to him by Patricia. His hair dangles damply over his eyes, his clothes soaked wet and heavy on his body. His shoes hit hard against the asphalt of the sidewalk. Tears stream down his face, and he grunts, as he continues to run. All of the sudden, he runs into a girl. They both tumble down and fall. The girl is wearing a poncho and hat to shield her from the rain. Taylor is startled and speechless as he trips over her. They stare at each other for awhile, seeing something familiar in each other. The girl is young and beautiful. Through the heavy rainfall, Taylor sees her deep blue eyes and beautifully curved lips and body.

"Amber?" Taylor says.

MEREDITH’S HOUSE - NIGHT

Devin and Meredith finally release their lips.

"Umm…" Meredith smiles, speechless.

"Shhhh… don’t say anything." Devin says, a single finger holding her lips shut. Devin kisses Meredith quickly again, then smiles and exits.

As he closes the front door of Meredith’s house, Meredith drops to the couch, giggling in delight.

LOS ANGELES – CASTING OFFICE

Alex sits restlessly in the large casting lobby. He is obviously waiting for response to an audition. On the front door, there is a label reading "Crystal Cove". Across the office walls there are newspaper clippings and articles about the critically acclaimed prime-time drama. Alex, apparently, is trying out for a part.

Alex is deep in thought and angst as the receptionist calls for him.

"Mr. Fowler will see you now." She says.

Alex nervously stands up and enters the office of Dr. Sky Fowler (played by Jack Wagner), who is the producer of the show.

"Hi, Alex. Please, take a seat." Dr. Fowler’s kind voice asks.

"Good afternoon." Alex greets as he takes a seat.

"Alex, you tried out for a minor 1 episode role on Crystal Cove. After reviewing the audition tape, me and my co-producers were deeply impressed, and thought that you would fit well as another character we are bringing on the show tentatively named Bailey. Now, there is a call-back tomorrow and I would love it if you would try out for the part. He is a major character, and it would be a minimum 2 Season commitment. Will I see you there?"

Alex is speechless with delight of this luck he has received. "Yes! I’ll be there!"

Dr. Fowler and Alex shake hands, and Alex gleefully scurries out to tell his Mom.

AMBER’S HOUSE - NIGHT

Taylor sits in a dark room lit only by the flickering glow of Amber’s fireplace. They both have towels wrapped around them and hot cups of Cocoa resting on the floor before them. They sit in deep conversation. They obviously know eachother.

"Amber, I still can’t believe you’re back." Taylor smiles.

"Well, believe it." Amber warmly says. "I really missed you while I was gone. And the others. How is everyone? I know that whole Brandi thing must of…well, really sucked."

"It did, trust me, it did." Taylor says approvingly. "And I really missed you too, Amber. I thought I was never going to see you again!"

"Why were you running outside like that. Something really upset you didn’t it?" Amber asks, concerned.

"I’ll tell you another time, maybe." Taylor says, ashamed. How could he tell Amber that he had a long lost sister and that he killed his own father. He quickly tries to change the subject.

"So, what happened?" He asks.

"Well, I had no choice than to go on that business trip with my father. But now I am back and I am kind of wondering if we can get back to the way we were."

"You mean…"

"This is what I mean." Amber says, as she leans forward, eyes closed, and kisses Taylor on the lips. For several seconds their lips caress, their tongues just short of each other. A moment of true happiness for both, a moment shared only by lovers.

Feeling pure ecstasy, they gently pull away from each other.

"I really did miss you." Amber says. "I missed you being my boyfriend, my best friend, my shoulder to cry on…"

"Yeah, me too." Taylor smiles, his eyes indulged in Amber’s. "But now we can start where we left off."

They lean in for another kiss.

PINE VALLEY HIGH SCHOOL – DAY

Alex, Devin, and Taylor are walking with each other to their lockers, as Alex explains to them his call back for "Crystal Cove".

"That is so awesome!" Taylor says, wide-eyed and unbelieving.

"I know, that’s cool." Devin says, hanging on Alex’s every word.

"Ok, we’re over it." Alex laughs devilishly. "So, Taylor, I hear Amber’s back. Are you guys back together?"

"I think." Taylor answers.

"You THINK?" Devin says quizzically as he glances in Taylor’s direction. The three lean against a few lockers listening to Taylor.

"Well, that kiss she gave me on the lips last night must mean SOMETHING!" Taylor smiles mischievously.

"Nice!" Alex says, laughing in delight.

"What about you, Devin…are you and Meredith gonna hook up?" Taylor asks, looking to stir some friendly trouble.

"Well, that kiss she gave me on the lips last night must mean SOMETHING!" Devin mocks, as the others laugh in disbelief.

"That’s awesome." Alex says. All the sudden, Alex has a shift of mood. "Hey guys, have you seen Jeff around lately?"

PINE VALLEY HIGH SCHOOL – DAY

We come to an odd crowd of outcasts at this high school. A quite odd crowd. Most of their hair is dyed ebony black along with their fingernails. They wear dog chain necklaces and punk rock clothing. They are all smoking either marijuana or cigarettes. No one dares defy them or mock them, as they fear the consequences. They are known as the freak shows of the school. As we zoom in, we see a particular face. Jeff. Except something is different about him. Not only is he smoking pot, but he has dyed his hair and nails and is wearing a satanic shirt and torn jeans. He has made a sudden transformation.

Who knows what is going on in Jeff’s head. Is he trying to be popular? Is he trying to be in the "in" crowd? Is he trying to be accepted? Many possibilities, no answers, as Jeff takes another puff of his joint.

"Yo, Carter, pass da mary jane, yo." Jeff says, foolishly trying to use slang to sound "cool".

"Nice. Make sure it be extra hot." Jeff smiles as he takes a joint that is handed to him. What has happened to this once innocent and good child?
