CUT TO: SHADOWLANDS
EXT. SHADOWLANDS - NIGHT
SHADE AND OBADIAH SIT OUTSIDE THE SHACK LOOKING AT THE SKY AND EATING CHARLIE HAMBURGERS.
[Shade]
I really do hope that this makes up for the lost time. It's just that I've been really busy.
[Obadiah]
Well, I don't not like that you haven't visited in a while but yeah this does make up for it. What did you say this restaurant was called again?
[Shade]
Charlie's. They're the best!
[Obadiah]
A lot different than what I'm used to that's for sure.
[Shade]
Is it the grease?
[Obadiah]
While I'll admit, it is kind of like an oil spill my burgers did have their fair share of grease. I just don't think that they were as good.
[Shade]
Well, I'll swing by more often and let you try something else when I get the chance.
[Obadiah]
That would be fantastic.
[Shade]
Do you have any book genres that you want to try?
[Obadiah]
I've always been a fan of mystery novels. Anything like that would be fine.
[Shade]
My library allows me to check out up to 200 books.
[Obadiah]
I don't think that I would need that many. Maybe 10 at a time would do.
[Shade]
That seems more reasonable.
SHADE AND OBADIAH FINISH EATING AND SIT TOGETHER LOOKING UP AT THE SKY.
[Obadiah]
You know, before you came along, I thought that I was going to die alone. That no one would know where I was or what happened to me.
THERE IS AN AWKWARD SILENCE BETWEEN THE BOTH OF THEM.
[Obdiah]
I guess what I mean is thanks for not forgetting about me.
[Shade]
You know I got your back. I'll check back in with you later.
[Obadiah]
Looking forward to it. See you around.
[Shade]
See you.
SHADE OPENS A PORTAL, WALKS THROUGH IT AND THE PORTAL CLOSES BEHIND HIM. OBADIAH THEN WALKS BACK INTO HIS SHACK, TURNS OFF THE LIGHT, AND TURNS IN FOR THE NIGHT.
CUT TO: THE NEXT DAY, PRISON
EXT. PRISON - MORNING
AN INMATE WALKS INTO DR. VINSON'S OFFICE AND SITS DOWN ON THE COUCH. DR. VINSON FLIPS TO A NEW PAGE, CLICKS HER PEN, AND LOOKS AT THE INMATE.
[Dr. Vinson]
It's been a while. How are you?
[Inmate]
Is that a joke? How could I be anything but miserable when I'm in a place like this.
[Dr. Vinson]
You won't want to hear this but it is true. It's just about how you keep yourself positive. For instance, you said you needed some time off. What did you do to relax while you took your break? Did you do some more reading?
