Logan's Version

Logan's Version 2 (scene 18) - Easter Sketch

The scene opens with Logan on a video call with Stephanie while sitting on the couch. On her end, she's at the hospital.
Logan: (grinning at Stephanie) We're going to have the best Easter ever, and I've got everything set up with the Easter eggs (he shows her 4 baskets of brightly coloured eggs). And as well as the fortune cookies and the Easter fried eggs, just the way Jesse requested [laugh track].
Stephanie: You really did exactly as I asked. Aside from me and Gerald, you know my baby more than I do. I'm impressed.
Logan: (shrugs) I do. I've been raising him for almost 3 years.
Stephanie: (sassily) I said I'm impressed. What else do you want to hear? [laugh track]
Logan: I can assure you this afternoon will work perfectly. You know, (smirks) we could also work perfectly as well, don't you think?
Stephanie: (bluntly) I think you would be perfectly buried deep in the ground [laugh track].
Logan: You're like 30. I don't mind.
Stephanie: In 2010's vocabulary, that's code for young-ish [laugh track]. Before I forget, Gerald and I are returning back next year. But he's not around, and we were supposed to tell y'all together, but don't let him know I mentioned it already.
Logan: (smirks) No problem. Gerald doesn't need to know.
Jesse: (walks in drinking a Coca-Cola) Mr Liam, can you NOT flirt with my mom anymore? And wipe that smirk off your face. It's disgusting [laugh track].
Logan: Big guy, why would you -
Jesse: (takes the phone) Logan Hilson, don't start. [brief laugh track] Happy Easter, mom.
Stephanie: (gushes) Ooh, my baby is wearing the fancy orange T-shirt I got for him. It looks adorable.
Jesse: (smiles) Thanks, mom.
Stephanie: (turns to someone in the background) Look, I'll be right over. Give me a minute. (She faces Jesse) Jesse, I have to go now, but we'll chat tomorrow, OK? And please tell your teacher to stop doing that with his face.
Jesse: What face? (Jesse sharply looks at Logan, who's giving Stephanie a creepy grin. The call ends immediately) Really? [laugh track]
Logan: What? She is impressed with my work here.
Jesse: And that's to take care of me. Nothing else [brief laugh track]. (He returns to the kitchen)
Zoey: (she walks in through the front door with Tracy and Trevor) I had to be back earlier to pick up some stuff. The cast and crew I'm working with are hosting an Easter evening party, so obviously, I won't be here with you. (She goes to her room)
Tracy: I'm confused. What of your other children?
Logan: They have other families. Only Jesse and Kelsea are gonna be present.
Tracy: Good, cause I need to make sure I eat enough before I join Zoey later. As we all know, I'm her manager ever since Mikey left to become a band singer. (Kelsea coincidentally comes out of the kitchen with Jesse, holding some baskets of food. The two suddenly freeze when they see Tracy) [brief laugh track]
Jesse: (nervously) Oh, look. Tracy's here. (whispers to Kelsea) Retreat! RETREAT! [another laugh track]
Kelsea: Why? (She realizes she's not holding any food basket) Hey! Who took the basket from my hands?
Tracy: (tearing a piece of chicken from one of the laps) This is amazing! [brief laugh track] (she turns to look at the horrified looks on the faces of Logan, Jesse, and Kelsea). And before you say anything, this is the only chicken I'm eating for now.
Logan: Tracy, you're a foodie. Even though the food you eat messes up your brain.
Jesse: Hmm (he drops the basket on the centre table and starts to walk toward the kitchen only to slowly stop moving. He stares in a trance-like state, and the camera does a quick close-up on his left iris. The speeding green wave is shown, and the vision opens to show Logan handing a wrapped box to Tracy)
[Logan: Here, the prize is all yours. You won, you aren't a foodie after all]
(The vision quickly closes, followed by the green wave light and finally Jesse's face. Jesse regains consciousness and turns to Kelsea)
Jesse: Kelsea, I just saw Logan telling Tracy that she's not a foodie after all. It's almost like she won some kind of contest.
Kelsea: Yeah, something's a bit off with that. (She points at Tracy eating another chicken piece while Logan glares at her) [brief laugh track]
Tracy: (shrugs) What? Meat is protein. I'm trying to have a balanced diet [another laugh track]
Kelsea: (to Jesse) You have to be sure of what you saw. Some visions can be tricky.
Jesse: Yeah, but watch this. (He walks up to the adults) Miss Tracy isn't a foodie. And that can be easily proven
Zoey: (comes out of her room) Jesse, some things can't be proven otherwise. I'm saying this as her friend [laugh track]. (Zoey quickly leaves as Tracy glares at her)
Tracy: OK, I beg to differ. Logan, I can prove to myself and y'all that I won't eat anything else in the next hour.
Logan: (sarcastic) Sure. And I'll give you a prize (He gets a random wrapped box and hands it to Tracy). Here, the prize is all yours. You won, you aren't a foodie after all [brief laugh track] (Jesse exchanges glances with Kelsea in surprise)
Jesse: That was my vision!
Kelsea: And as usual, you were wrong. You are one bad psychic [laugh track]. But then, who knows? She might actually prove that she won't eat any of the Easter dinner for the next hour. (The two turn around again to see Tracy munching on another chicken lap. Logan walks in from the kitchen with a bowl of spaghetti, which falls from his hands out of shock) [laugh track].
Tracy: (realizes she's been caught) It's for the protein, people. Get over yourselves!
Logan: (clearly irritated) DUDE!! [Final laugh track] (Kelsea and Jesse silently walk away as the scene slowly ends).
