Babysitter Wanted Page #2

Twelve years of Catholic school,

church every Sunday.

Altar boy - the whole shebang.

Couldn't get out of it if I tried.

D'you mind if I ask you a personal question?

Depends on the question.

Why are you always so jumpy?

I don't know. I'm not usually like this.

It's just... Do you ever feel

like someone's watching you?

What, do you mean like a guardian angel?

No, like... like someone's stalking you.

But...

Someone's stalking you?

You've been here for what, like a week and

you already have a stalker? I'm so jealous.

I don't know.

It just feels like someone is.

Maybe it's just being away from home and all,

that's got me nuts.

It sounds like you've got a lot on your mind.

Yeah. I guess I do.

- How's your vanilla?

- It's good.

Yeah?

Nah, chocolate's still better.

Well, my stalking duties end here.

Wait. I thought I was stalking you.

Right.

Sorry, I keep getting that part mixed up.

What are you doin ' tomorrow night?

Oh, I have to work.

Maybe, um, maybe we could do something

on Saturday, though?

I'd like that.

Well, good night.

Good night.

- Angie, you are the... twenty-seventh?

- That's right.

...female student that we've spoken to

since Rebecca Miller went missing,

and you all have

every reason to be concerned.

Now, we've put extra squad cars

on the streets,

and I know that campus security

is very aware of the situation.

Why would someone put this on my door?

People have been putting

these things up everywhere.

My door was the only one

in the entire building.

Let me give you my card.

If this guy tries anything,

you call me up and we'll come straightaway.

- Thank you.

- OK.

No!

Come on!

- Car trouble?

- Yeah, kind of.

Pop the hood. I'll take a look at it.

Geez, I am gonna be so late!

I'll tell you what.

I'll give you a ride, and then I'll come back

and take a look at your car.

- Are you sure? It's kinda far.

- It'll be my pleasure.

You weren't kidding

when you said this place was out here.

I'm sorry.

I really appreciate you doing this.

Don't be sorry. I'm happy to do it.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

So, uh, call me in a few, and I'll let you know

if you need to take it to a mechanic.

You're sweet.

Remind me to offer to fix your car more often.

- Hi, Mr Stanton.

- Hi, Angie.

- Is that your boyfriend?

- No, just a friend.

I had a little car trouble,

so he gave me a ride.

Huh. Nice friend.

Yeah. He is a nice friend.

Hm.

Is there any chance

you could give me a ride home?

I don't see why not.

Psst.

- Ah, here. I'll take that.

- Thanks.

You weren't kidding about the cowboy outfit.

Like I said, he never takes the thing off.

You wouldn't believe what a pain it is

to get him to take a bath.

Sam couldn't stop talking about you

after you left the other day.

Really?

I wasn't sure he even liked me.

- Oh, no, no, no, no, he loves you.

- Oh.

It's just, you know, he gets very quiet

when he first meets people.

Oh.

OK, so let me just show you

a few things.

Here is the TV remote.

Sam is a heavy sleeper,

but you might want to keep it low,

just in case.

And here is the phone with all the contact

numbers that you could possibly need.

- Keys to the Jeep, in case you need it.

- Got it.

Help yourself to anything in the refrigerator,

but the bottom row is Sam's.

He's on a special diet,

so don't feed him anything

that's not in those containers,

just in case he wakes up hungry.

So, we all set?

I think so. Are you sure

you don't have any questions?

Oh, come on. She's fine.

- We're running late anyway.

- OK, OK.

- Do you have any idea when you'll be back?

- We shouldn't be gone

more than three or four hours.

Just make yourself at home.

- We'll see you later.

- Have a good night.

- OK, thanks.

- Don't forget to call.

Don't start playing games with yourself.

It's just an old house.

There's a heart attack waiting to happen.

- Hello?

- HI It'S me

Hey there, me. How's the babysitting going?

The kid driving you crazy yet?

- No, it's like he's not even here.

- H gukeSS that'S good rlght?

I just wanted to let you know

you don't have to come get me.

Mr Stanton's gonna give me a ride.

Oh. I was actually looking forward to it.

In fact,

you called right at the moment of truth.

Oh, I'm good.

- Are you OK?

I'm fine. Someone just tried calling,

and I thought it might be you.

No, wasn't me.

OK, well, I will call you later.

OK:

Maybe a little TV will help.

Woo-woo-woo-woo ha-ha!

It would be a good idea

not to leave it on at full volume,

if you don't want it played too loud.

I hope that didn't wake him.

He does sleep like a rock.

Oh, God, you scared me.

I'm sorry, did I wake you up?

Hungry.

Oh. OK, let's go get you something to eat.

Your mom said you can

only eat the food on the bottom...

You want me to heat some of this up?

Diced red meat.

Very rare diced red meat.

Let's get a different one.

I guess it's diced rare meat.

Are you sure

you're supposed to have this?

OK.

Do you want some ketchup

or something?

Careful, you're gonna burn your...

before your parents get home.

Hey, buddy, where are you goin '?

You need to go to sleep.
