My Girl 2 Page #19

PHIL:

You know exactly...what kind it is. Come on

Rose...what do you want from me?

ROSE:

I don't want anything you don't wanna give

me.

SAM:

And you certainly shouldn't settle for

anything less that you deserve.

PHIL:

You stay out of this, look, if I had a red

XK-150 with a black interior, I sure as hell

wouldn't be handing out relationship advice.

SAM:

I don't think the color of the interior

is....

PHIL:

Rose this not the place to be having this...

ROSE:

I think this place is just fine.

PHIL:

You know how I feel about you.

ROSE:

You like the way I cook...you think I make

out a great invoice. PHIL

You and Nick and...and this...this garage are

my whole life...I love you. Sure you don't

have the greatest taste in music...but there's

not another woman who could look so sexy in

that smock. What I'm try... what I'm trying to

sa...

Vada takes Phil's hand and mouths the word "commitment" to

him, giving him strength

What I mean to say...Rose will you marry me?

ROSE:

You really think I look sexy in this smock?

PHIL:

Is that a yes?

Phil and Rose hug each other and kiss, Sam looks defeated,

Vada and Nick smile at each other

AT AIRPORT, VADA IS ABOUT TO BOARD HER PLANE, ROSE AND PHIL

ARE STANDING NEXT TO HER

VADA:

Thanks for everything, you're the best.

PHIL:

No, you're the best and I don't want you

talking to anybody on the plane.

VADA:

Dad already gave me this lecture. He's gonna

meet me at the airport, then we'll go for some

pizza, then we'll have dinner in bed with

Shelly.

PHIL:

Sounds great, well you give 'em both one of

these for me.

Phil gives Vada hug and a kiss

VADA:

Bye Aunt Rose.

ROSE:

Bye Niece, Vada.

Rose and Vada hug

VADA:

Thanks. Well, bye.

Vada walks down the corridor a little and stops by Nick who

is waiting for her

VADA:

...umm...Listen, I'm sorry...you had to

sacrifice your entire vacation.

NICK:

Some sacrifices are worth it.

VADA:

You mean...it wasn't that terrible?

NICK:

I wouldn't say it was terrible...it

was...kind of...

VADA:

An adventure?

NICK:

(smiling)

Part adventure...part miracle.

Nick looks into Vada's eyes, they kiss, a long moment

passes and their lips part. They both smile at each other

NICK:

Write me a poem?

VADA:

(shakes her head smiling)

NICK:

No?

VADA:

I'll write you ten poems.

(PA springs to life informing people

to board NOW)

Bye.

NICK:

Good-bye, look in your backpack.

Vada turns around and looks at Nick

VADA:

Okay.

Vada walks down the passage and turns out of sight, Nick

turns and heads past Rose and Phil, his eyes fixated on some

object far away, there is only one word to describe how he

looks

STONED ON LOVE:

INSIDE PLANE, VADA IN HER SEAT, SHE REMOVES HER SEATBELT

AND OPENS HER BACKPACK

she finds a little box which she opens and finds contained

in it a note and a pair of earrings, she looks at the

earrings and then reads the note

VADA'S THOUGHTS

(reading note)

In memory of barbaric customs, Love Nick.

this makes Vada extremely happy

VADA'S THOUGHTS

Life is full of barbaric customs, I just hope

they all end with a kiss like that.

as Vada disembarks, she makes her way into the crowd of

people waiting to pick up others, Arthur is standing there

waiting, Vada approaches

VADA:

Arthur, where's my dad?

ARTHUR:

He took Shelly to the hospital.

VADA:

Is she okay?

ARTHUR:

Well, she was making a lot of noise.

they exit the scene

OUTSIDE THE HOSPITAL, ARTHUR PULLS UP AND LETS VADA OUT

Vada gets out of the car and runs inside, making her way

through corridors to the maternity ward, where Harry is

waiting

VADA:

Dad!

Vada and Harry hug each other

VADA:

What happened to Shelly?

HARRY:

She just had a baby that's all.

VADA:

(excited)

We have a baby?

HARRY:

Uh huh, a boy, you've got a new brother.

VADA:

Can I see him?

HARRY:

You can do anything you want. You're his

sister.

Hey, what's on your ear?

VADA ENTERS THE ROOM WHERE SHELLY IS LYING HOLDING THE BABY

VADA:

Shelly?

SHELLY:

Hey! Oh look.

VADA:

He's so tiny.

SHELLY:

I know, look at his little hands.
