Someone is knocking vigorously at the door

Sam comes down the stairs in her pajamas

The knocking continues

Sam

"I'm coming! Calm down!"

Sam opens the door and nobody is there

Sam
"What do you want at 6 in the..."

Sam looks around and sees there is a box at the doorstep

Sam picks it up and walks back inside

Alex comes down the stairs in her pajamas

Alex

"Who was it?"

Sam

"Nobody... But did you order something?"

Alex

"Nope"

Sam

"Me either"

Alex

"Open it"

Sam puts the box on the coffee table and starts opening it

Sam screams and runs to the corner

Alex

"What?!"

Alex looks in the box and sees it's a ventriloquist dummy

Alex

"Oh come on Sam!"

Alex takes it out

Sam

"Put it away! You know I hate dolls!"

Alex

"Why weren't you scared of the Spy Elf then?"

Sam

"Because that one was cute! All other dolls are evil!"

Alex puts it down

Sam

"Where did that even come from?!"

Alex looks at the box

Alex

"It doesn't say"

Sam

"Of course it doesn't... That damn thing came to life and mailed itself!"

Alex

"Oh will you stop? It is just an inanimate doll!"

Sam gets up

Next scene: Alex's room

Alex

"Here you go Chester, I found you a friend while we're at school"

Alex puts the doll next to Chester who is sleeping on the bed

Alex opens her closet and picks out an outfit

Alex turns around and sees the doll had moved to the end of the bed

Alex pauses and looks confused

Alex

"Um Chester? Did you move the doll?"

Chester is fast asleep
