*Kim was looking out the window along with Perdita*

Peg: I'm sure your father will find him soon. *She reassured*

Kim: What time is it? 

Peg: It's almost eight thirty. Great party, huh?

*Kim and the dalmatian goes to the couch and sit down*

Kim: Where are they? God. I hope he's okay. 

Peg: So do I, honey. *Perdita nodded as well*

Peg: You know, when I brought Edward down here to live with us, I really didn't think things through. And I didn't think about what could happen to him, or to us, or to the neighborhood. You know, I think that maybe it might be best if he goes back up there. Because at least there he's safe, and we'd just go back to normal. 

*Just then, Bill entered the house*

Bill: Now I got up by the Wiggmans, but I didn't see him anywhere.

Peg: Oh dear. Oh, just... Well, let's get in the car and go look for him. 

Bill: Where's Kevin now? 

Peg: He's at Max's. *Kim and Perdita follow them*

Bill: Oh, thank God. Where do you think you two are going, young lady?  *He noticed*

Kim: With you guys. 

Bill: No, you and Perdita are staying here in case somebody shows up.

Peg: We'll be right back, dear. *She adds*

*They closed the door. Kim and Perdita go to the couch. She looks down sadly, Perdita lays her head on her lap as Kim pets her*

Kim: Oh, this is awful. I'm really worried about him. *Then she got an idea* Perdita, you must find Edward. I know he wouldn't go that far. But you must find him, can you do it? *She asked her dog while cupping her face*

*Perdita barked in response and nodded*

Kim: Okay, be careful. 

*With that Perdita opens the door and runs out into the streets, she started to sniff. Finding his scent. At first it was faint, but she kept sniffing it more and more and soon, she found it.  The dalmatian barked and runs down the street* 

*Edward was sitting down on the sidewalk looking down sadly. Then a dog came up to him, sitting down. Edward knew what he wanted, he cut the dogs bangs so he could see. Edward smiled. The dog gave him a small lick and left. As Perdita came around the corner, she found him*

*She barked for his attention than ran towards him, happily. He looks up to see her*

Edward: Perdita! *He smiled, seeing his dalmatian friend. Once she was close, he hugged her*

Perdita: I'm so glad I found you, Kim and I were so worried about you. *She licked his cheek happily* 

Edward: Oh, I am fine. Really. *She nodded. a few seconds passed*

Perdita: Do not listen to Jim, Edward. You have something that rude brute doesn't have; you have a kind heart, gentle personality and talent. You are wonderful inside and out; Kim sees that in you and so do I. *Edward looked at her*

Edward: Does she really? But I've hurt her... 

Perdita: You didn't hurt her; it was an accident

Perdita: You didn't hurt her; it was an accident. She's so worried about you right now. That's why she sent me to look for you and I have. Please... come home, Edward. *She placed her paw on top of his hand. He looked at her paw before looking back at her with gentle eyes*

Edward: Are you sure? I don't want you or Kim to get in trouble. 

*Before Perdita could reply they saw a light flashing down the street. It was Officer Allen driving up close*

Edward: Police! *He gasped in fear*

Perdita: We need to go. *She said as she gently nudged Edward to follow her back to the house and he followed in a rush*

*Another second passed, and they made it back. Edward looks through the window. They go up to the front door, Perdita opens it as they entered. Kim gently touches Edward's shoulder*

Kim: Edward? *He turns around to face her as Perdita sits* 

Edward: Are you okay? *She nodded*

Kim: Yes, are you okay? *He nodded*

Edward: Where is everybody? *He asked*

Kim: Out looking for you. Hold me. 

*Edward raises his Scissorhands as he tries to hold her close but...*

Edward: I can't. *He goes to stand next to the window*

*Soon Kim goes up to him and hold him close as they embrace. Perdita gently lays next to them. And Edward reflects back about the inventor*

The Inventor: I know it's a little early for Christmas, Edward, but I have a present for you. 

*The inventor was holding human hands for Edward. He was amazed how he was finally getting his hands; he was admiring his human hands for a while. Just when he was about to receive them. The inventor's heart stopped, and he died on the spot*

*Edward stood scared, fear and emotionless. He looked over at his father's lifeless body. He gently touches his cheek, but his blood was on his blade fingers. Edward was all alone and lost on his own. Incomplete and stuck with scissors for hands*

*Flashback ends as all three were still in embrace*
