(Cathy comes home.)

Eric: So...how was your first day?

Cathy: It was...eventful.

Eric: Made friends? Although your answer will probably be-

Cathy: Yeah. I did.

Eric: You did?

Cathy: Yep. I'm actually gonna go to the mall with them right now.

Eric: Okay. Have fun. And be safe.

Cathy: Dad, you really think some masked freak is gonna kill someone at the mall? In public?

Eric: Cathy...

Cathy: If you're wondering, no. He won't. The fact that he wears a mask clearly shows that he's a coward. Don't worry.

Eric: I'm a father. It's my job to worry.

Cathy: I'm your daughter. It's my job to give you something to worry about.

(Eric and Cathy laugh.)

Eric: Ok. Have fun.

Cathy: See you later.

(Cathy leaves. Eric has a look of worry on his face.)
