SLOW FADE OUT:
SLOW FADE IN:
EXT:
HOUSE -- DAYWe hear a CHEERLEADER's voice:
LYDIA:
Two Four Six Eight
Winter River's Really Great
LYDIA DEETZ is on the front lawn of the house -- now rempaired,
but with a huge skylight in the middle of the roof. LYDIA is
wearing the WINTER RIVER BADGERS cheerleader uniform, and carries
two pompoms. But she still bears remnants of her DEATH ROCKER
make-up, and wears her finger bone necklace.
In the BACK YARD of the house, CHARLES DEETZ is tending the
replanted orchard. At the same time, he is dictating the fifth
in a series of occult novels, into a Walkman-like dictaphone.
CHARLES:
Aghast, I turned to look into
his face. His features had
begun to melt. He was turning
into a corpse before my stunned
but courageous eyes...
Repaired, and now decorated by someone with much more taste than
OTHO. But the water clock, in an improved and expanded version,
still holds forth.
CATHY's on her way upstairs carrying a glass of iced tea.
INT:
SECOND FLOOR SEWING ROOM -- DAYThe 80's equivalent of BARBARA's sewing room. DELIA is at a work
bench, hard at work on some extremely small object, using a
magnifying glass, and a mini-acetylene torch.
CATHY comes in with the iced tea.
CATHY:
tea, didn't you?
DELIA:
Yes. Thank you dear.
Voila. It's done. You
can take it upstairs.
CATHY:
(A little uncertainly)
Great.
INT:
ATTIC -- DAYThe model town is in the process of being repaired. It is
apparent that this is now CATHY's bedroom.
CATHY takes the small object that DELIA gave her, and takes it
over to the model. With a pair of jewelry pliers she very
carefully sets it on the front porch of the MAITLAND's home.
We get a look at it now, and it's a miniature version of DELIA's
water clock.
ADAM and BARBARA come out of the front door, and stare at the
water clock. They look up at CATHY.
CATHY:
Mom made it for you.
BARBARA starts to say something, but ADAM interrupts her.
ADAM:
a wonderful surprise.
CATHY:
She wants to know if you'll
need any help placing it.
BARBARA:
Tell her we know just what
to do with it.
ADAM and BARBARA go inside the house.
INT:
MODEL HOUSE LIVING ROOM -- DAYIt's just like ADAM and BARBARA's house was in the first scene.
ADAM:
I know it's just a model
house, and I know we're
ghosts, and we're never
going anywhere else for a
hundred and thirty-two
years -- but I still think
it's heaven.
He closes the door, and after a moment, there is an ominous
vibration. The WATER CLOCK smashes through the window.
BARBARA:
Well, it'll have to do until
