AUDITORIUM

After Kelly dozed off a few times while watching 'Singin' in the Rain' with Will, she eventually fell into a deep dream where she was standing on a set kitchen in the school's theatre with Kurt and Mike. The three were dressed in clothes from the 1920's and singing about the morning, and what a lovely mornin' it was.

LIVING ROOM

As Kelly was humming the melody to 'Good Morning', Will was shaking her shoulder in an attempt to wake his sleeping daughter.

Will: "Kel, Kel. Kelly." he repeated while finally waking her.

Kelly: "Good morning." she mumbled before her eyes took in her surroundings and she said, "What?"

Will: "Dinner." he told her pointing to the bowls of soup on the coffee table.

Kelly: "Oh."

Will: "You were also singing in your sleep."

Kelly: "You're one to talk. You were singing 'Make 'Em Laugh'."

Will: "I was. I'll admit to it." he said before taking a spoonful of chicken noodle soup, "Who was in your's?"

Kelly: "'Good Morning', in the auditorium, with Kurt and Mike. You?" she quizzed before having a gulp of the warm broth and noodles.

Will: "Mike and Brad, in the auditorium." he says earning a nod from her as she took another spoonful.

Kelly: "Good soup. Did you order it?"

Will: "Terri brought it." he fesses up causing Kelly to roll her hazel eyes, "She's just trying to be helpful."

Kelly: "No, she's just trying to get her claws back into you. Don't let her. She likes you when you're weak because your guard is down."

Will: "If that's how you really feel, why did you go to her to get the pills?"

Kelly: "Because I knew she'd be the only adult not to truly question it. She's not really that bright." she adds in before taking another gulp of soup.

Will: "How are you doing off of them?"

Kelly: "I won't lie. I was struggling at first, but I think I'm slowly starting to get a hang of my new schedule."

Will: "And you've been good with cutting back on things?"

Kelly: "I have. I mean, cutting back to ten hours a week at work sometimes feels pointless, but at least I'm earning some money still."

Will: "And the nursing home?"

Kelly: "That's been harder. Seeing everybody only once every other week is tough. I miss them, but they understand and just want me to get better."

Will: "That's good."

Kelly: "Yeah. Though Ms. Jeanie was disappointed when she learned what I was doing."

Will: "Did Sue tell her?"

Kelly: "No. I did. Never been able to lie to her. She's always seen right through me." she explains to him before the two continued to eat their soup and through the silence, the father and daughter tuned back towards the 1952 film, as it played for probably the fifth, no the sixth, time since the two got sick.
