[MORGAN comes home after work. Her boyfriend GARETH Jamison is cooking in the kitchen.]
GARETH: Hey Morgan.
MORGAN: Hey. Mmm, that smells good, Gareth!
GARETH: Thanks. How was it, being CEO?
MORGAN [undoing her bootlaces]: Weird. I'll tell you later. Man, I'm hungry. [Thinking.] What am I going to tell him?
[MORGAN sits at the kitchen island. GARETH sets her food in front of her.]
GARETH [half-smiling]: So, you helping me tomorrow?
MORGAN [flirting]: You've got me all day. Hey, would you still like me if I got Headway? I know it's controversial and stuff...
GARETH: You mean the computer-in-your-head thing? Yeah, as long as you don't let it run you.
MORGAN [thinking]: Noted...
GARETH: You're cool as you are.
MORGAN [fake indignant]: Cool? That's all?!
GARETH [grinning]: I love you Morgan.
[He kisses a blushing MORGAN on the temple. After dinner, MORGAN's phone buzzes. It's someone labeled "BFF".]
MORGAN: It's NaTalia. She's probably calling to wish us a happy Thanksgiving. [She answers.] Heyyy...you're on speakerphone.
NATALIA: Hi Morgan! Hi Gareth – oh wait, you there?
GARETH [clearing plates]: I'm here.
NATALIA: You neh-vah say hi, man.
MORGAN [smiling]: He's just not that kind of guy. [She goes to sit on the couch as he finishes the dishes.]
NATALIA: Alright, just callin' to say happy Thanksgiving y'all, before everyone gets busy.
GARETH and MORGAN [simultaneously]: You too.
NATALIA: You guys are great.
[GARETH joins MORGAN on the couch, next to the corner bookcase. The curtains are drawn over the floor-to-ceiling windows.]
MORGAN: Hey...Talia.
NATALIA: Yeah.
MORGAN: I'm thinking of getting Headway to help with the engineering stuff. Any advice?
