Rosemont Page #7

Synopsis: In a raging blizzard five days before Christmas, two young people meet by chance: Lisa, 23, pregnant and scared, and Brad, a professional snowboarder. Both want to make it over the mountains ahead of the storm, Brad to attend a party announcing his engagement, Lisa because she's desperate to get anywhere, so long as it's away from the mysterious circumstances she's running from. They don't make it. The blizzard catches up with them - Brad's car slams into a snow bank in the middle of the wilderness. They're forced to seek shelter at the one structure they've past in the last ten miles: the Rosemont Lodge. Once a vibrant year-round resort, the Rosemont Lodge has been closed for nearly 20 years. Most of the Lodge has been sealed up; now, only a corner of the main building is inhabited. The lodge's owner, Josephine, used to be the heart and soul of the resort - her personality, and her cooking, were as much of an attraction as were the hundreds of acres of pristine mountain wilderness sur

Well, I already notice that Lisa

looks a lot like your daughter.

She does.

And who else, who else, who?

Come on, look at her.

My granddaughter.

Oh, she does... it's...

hard to compare...

...a one-year-old

with a grown woman.

She's 19.

- Your granddaughter or Lisa?

- Both.

I see. They would have been

the same age...

...so Lisa reminds you

of your granddaughter?

No offense Richard...

...but how did you get through

medical school?

I'm not saying

she reminds me of her.

I'm telling you,

Lisa is my granddaughter.

Do not look at me like I'm crazy.

Look at the facts.

The plane crashed...

...Pam and Charlie were found

with the plane...

...but there was no trace

of Linda.

They said that the animals...

...could have carried her away...

- Animals, manimals, listen to me.

Two months later,

an unknown couple...

...dropped off

a baby girl of one year old.

Baby girl, at the Salt Lake City

Emergency Room.

Salt Lake City is less than

200 miles from the crash site.

You're suggesting that

somebody found Linda...

...way out in the woods?

- Well, it's a National Park;...

...there are campgrounds

all over the place.

And took the girl

without telling anyone?

Maybe they wanted a kid;...

...maybe they didn't want

to deal with the law?

And dropped her at an emergency

room two months later?

Is that so unbelievable?

I'll tell you what's unbelievable.

A one year old baby girl goes

missing in a public park...

...two months later,

an identical looking baby girl...

...shows up in the emergency room

only 200 miles away.

Now, you're telling me...

...it's more likely those are

two different baby girls?

But you're suggesting

that 18 years later...

...the very same girl

gets caught in a snowstorm...

...and winds up here,

what are the chances of that?

What are the chances of

winning the Lotto?

Slim to nothing, right?

But, what are you going to do...

...say to somebody that just

won the Lotto...

...that they didn't really

because look at all those odds.

Is that how you feel like

you've won the Lottery?

Yes, I do.

I think some force,

I don't care whether it's...

...chance or fate or God...

...something brought her home.

Just like,

just like it kept me here.

Well, she sure as heck

needs a grandmother like you.

And ah, maybe you could use

a granddaughter like her.

It's not just that Richard,

she really is my granddaughter.

There's one way to be sure.

All I need is a swab of her saliva

and a swab of yours.

I don't need that.

I know what's in my heart.

That's maybe for the best.

You go right ahead and believe

whatever it is you believe.

I am going to go right ahead

and believe...

...what I know is the truth.

See, it's a Christmas tree.

All the pretty ornaments.

You're just sleepy, there's

nothing you can do about it.

Go on, it's never too early

to talk to the baby.

I can't believe

this is the same room.

Kind of looked like

a haunted mansion before.

It did. Didn't it?

Yeah.

Do you mind if I asked you

a personal question?

No. Not at all.

Did you know

that you were adopted?

Yeah, my parents reminded me

every chance they got.

What do you know about

your real parents?

Nothing. They abandoned me

when I was 12 months old.

They didn't abandon you.

They dropped me

at the emergency room...

...and vanished,

what do you call that?

All those years you growing up...

...believing yourself unloved.

When, the truth is...

...you were the most loved

little girl in the world.

What do you mean?

You can see it, can't you, how much

your mom and dad loved you.

You really think this is me?

That I'm really Linda?

I think you are really Lisa,

but when you were little...

...and you lived here,

your name was Linda, yes.

I...

Is this even possible?

Not if you don't believe

it's possible.

But, whether you believe

or don't believe...

...I want you to know

that this is your home...

...to stay here

as long as you like.

Thank you, thank you so much.

Josephine,

do not sneak up on me like that.

Hey buddy.

- Lisa?

- Yeah, come in.

I have a little surprise for you.

Yeah, look what the cat dragged in.

- Hi.

- Hi.

What are you doing here?

Mind if I borrow the baby

for a few minutes?

Sound like a yes to you?

Sounded like a yes.

That was a yes.

You look so serious.

- He is fine. Come on, sit.

- Allright.

- You too, Brad.

- Yeah.

Everybody's ears are red.

What were you two doing

so long out in the cold?

We took a long walk, halfway

around the property, didn't we?

They found the perfect spot

for a Half Pipe and Tabletop.

You could build a full

on Terrain Park here...

...without even changing

the natural landscape.

I'm lost. Terrain Park?

For snowboarders.

It's a place for them

to do tricks and so on.

And, why would we want that?

I know exactly what you mean.

You're thinking, hey,

this is a high-end place...

...what do we want to do...

...with a bunch of

snowboarder bums like me?

Well, most snowboarder bums

that are going to be here...

...are going to be

the instructors.

And who exactly would they be

instructing?

The kids.

The thing is, that snow-boarding

has gotten to be...

...more and more of

a family sport...

...I mean, even moms

and dads are out there now.

Kids of all ages are doing it...

...and even the kids that

aren't doing it, want to learn.

So, I'm thinking with

the right design...

...some hard stuff,

some easy stuff...

...the kids are never going

to get tired of it.

I mean, you're going to be

turning away customers.

We are turning customers away

right nicely now.

Thanks very much.

- That's because you're not open.

Exactly.

I'm going to make some more gravy.

What did I say?

Nothing.

It's okay.

That kid's the one

who has been filling...

...your head up

with all this about...

...about voice-mail and

satellite dishes...

...and Half Pipes

and I want it to stop.

Do you understand me?

I'm the one who has been

asking the questions.

Someone has to make plans

and you're not doing it.

Well, there's a good reason

for that.

I have no intention of re-opening

the lodge, not now, not ever.

I have put up with you

for 20 years...

...but now I'm going to tell you

the truth. The truth about Kyle.

I don't want to talk about Kyle.

Well, I do.

You have always felt that by

killing himself he abandoned you.

- He did.

- Well, what about you?

You shut down this lodge;

you shut yourself off from him...

...and everybody else.

That's not killing yourself?

I don't blame either one of you

after a loss like that, but...

...the plain truth is,

you abandoned him...

...as much as he abandoned you.

He committed suicide in his way

and you did it in yours.

You have no right.

Well then who does?

Nobody. You're cut yourself off

from everybody else.

I know that you love Lisa,

and the baby.

So, what are they

supposed to be...

...the next generation of

crazy hermits...

...living way the hell out here?
