[The scene begins with Jung editing some work on his computer as Min comes in with her own laptop.]
Min: Hey Dad, page three paragraph four could use some work. There is some redundancy in the explanation of the temple mechanisms and their purpose, compared to the previous steps.
Jung: Okay, thanks. I was having a hard time wording that. Any suggestions?
Min: I would have to look at that drawing again. God, Mom would be so mad that I am helping you edit this.
Jung: Yeah, but before she would even say anything, you know we would catch her smiling at us. She did this way before we even met.
Min: Oh god, Dad. Spare me the details. Please. [pause as Min looks at their family pictures around the office] I can read the rest tonight after work. I have to get to the bookstore.
Jung: Need a ride?
Min: Dad, being 23 and needing a ride to work doesn’t really correlate with me anymore. I can take transit like I have done. How about a pick up after my shift though? I was thinking about dinner and ice cream afterwards. Kinda been missing mom a little more than usual these days.
Jung: I love that idea, Min. I’ve been missing her a lot too.
[Min walks out of the doorway and takes a step back]
Min: Dad, do you have this weird feeling that something is coming?
Jung: What do you mean?
Min: I have this feeling like something different is somehow going to arrive soon. I can’t tell if it is going to be good or bad.
Jung: Your mom said that often.
Min: Did she say that before she died?
Jung: No. Well, she did not tell me, nor do I think she would have. Although, she did say that before Uncle Lee and Aunt Mina got into their accident.
Min: I hope this is just me being more paranoid than I need to be. Well, see you, Dad! [Min runs out of view from Jung]
Jung: [camera pans to Jung’s computer] I hope so too. [Camera continues to look over Jung’s computer, revealing the article about Lee’s accident with two other passengers.]
[Jung looks out the window to see Min sprinting out to the bus stop]
Jung: [takes out his cell phone] Lee, I got your message. How was your latest adventure? Min and I are anxious to see you this week.
[Cuts to Lee Park on the plane in a well tailored suit]
Lee: It was amazing. I got some material and diagrams for you to check out. I should be there in a couple of days.
Jung: [over the phone] Good, I’ll make sure Min and I clean up over here.
Lee: That’s a lot of effort for someone who’s seen your house in all states. By the way, how’s Min doing these days?
