XT. NEIGHBORHOOD STREET - DAWN 1954
A PAPERBOY rides his Schwinn bicycle down the street delivering today's paper. We're in the heart of the burgeoning, 1950s suburbs. It's lovely here.

He picks each folded newspaper from his shoulder bag and slings them into every driveway with ease and enthusiasm. He's greeted by all the early risers. Everybody knows him.

He comes to the end of the block and finishes his route with the house on the corner--a beautiful "Cape Cod" with a perfect lawn and white-picket fence. A spit-shine clean, lido green 1954 Buick Skylark convertible in the driveway.

The kid moves on as we stay with the house...there's a story behind this door.

INT. BEDROOM - MORNING
EVELYN PETERSON (Alice in movie) makes love to her husband CLIFFORD (Jack in movie) at a fever pitch. Both 30. Ken and Barbie before there was Ken and Barbie. Him behind her on the bed. He's getting close. She looks back at him.
EVELYN

I want on top of you.
It excites him even more. They switch. Her on top now. In control as she intended. He can't hold out anymore. He climaxes. Inside. Both of them sweating and panting and out of breath.

CLIFFORD Fuck me.
That was intense. She smiles.

EVELYN
I thought I just did.

He smiles back. They kiss. Time to start the day. She starts off the bed, when he grabs her by the hand.

CLIFFORD Wait, what about you?
He's thoughtful like that. She smiles.
EVELYN
I need time to get ready for your
big day. Don't you want me to look perfect?
