“Are you two just about done?” Dara stood in the doorway to their office. Jay and Rebecca were sitting side-by-side, staring at the computer monitor. Rebecca was completely engrossed in what Jay was saying. Jay’s hair was standing at odd angles, no doubt from running her hands through it as the two of them worked out a tense scene.

They’d been at it for ten days, and Dara had watched them work long enough to recognize some of Jay’s habits. She thought it was endearing.

“Earth to Rebecca? Jay? How’s it coming along? We have to leave here in about twenty minutes if we’re going to be on time for our reservation.” Dara had secured a dinner meeting with the director, George Nelson, to give him a copy of the treatment and the screenplay and talk about possibilities and strategy.

“Huh?” Rebecca looked over her shoulder. “Oh. We’re on the last few lines of dialogue right now. Give us about ten minutes and we’ll have it.”

“I hope you can get ready in a hurry.” Dara retreated to the back deck and watched the waves lap against the sand. She’d read the pages at the end of each day. The work was good—very, very good. The material would make for an edge-of-the-seat ride for theater-goers.

Dara smiled as she imagined playing Bryce Maddox. It was a meaty role, and she would have to do a lot of research to inhabit that skin. It’s exactly the kind of new challenge I’ve been looking for.

“Hey.” Rebecca wrapped her arms around Dara from behind and kissed the side of her neck. “We’re done. It’s printing now, and I’m off to get dressed. Can you put it in a binder?”

“I might be able to manage that.” She turned in Rebecca’s arms and kissed her gently. “Congratulations.”

“Jay gets a lot of the credit for getting it done so fast. It didn’t take her any time to adapt to the differences in format and nuance. It also helped that her original dialogue was so crisp. All we had to do was bring it into Final Draft from her Word document and tweak it.”

“You can tell me all about it later,” Dara said. “Get dressed.” She shooed Rebecca back inside, returned to the office, and put together the package they would give to the director at dinner.
