Scarlet: Hey. (looks at Luke packing up her typewriter and Noah staring at it) That was mom's. (looks at her hands) It's the only thing I have left of her.

Noah: (smiles) Do you like to write?

Scarlet: (walks over and pulls out a box of stories) This is everything i've ever written. Maybe you could read them sometime?

Noah: (smiles) That sounds good.

Scarlet: (pushes her glasses up her nose grunts and puts them in the case) I don't even know why I wear them. I hate glasses.

Noah: (laughs) That's why I wear contacts.

Scarlet: (gets up close to his eyes and examines them) I guess so. You decided to trade in the grandpa glasses for contacts? (laughs a deep laugh)

Luke: Grandpa glasses? This is the first of hearing about this. Want to explain Noah?

Noah: (looks at Scarlet with an i'm gonna kill you look) I didn't exactly know what fashion was when I was 11.

Scarlet: Do you want to see what they looked like Luke? (smiles and walks to a shelf and pulls out a scrapbook)

Noah: I don't think he wants to-

Luke: No, no I really do. (Scarlet walks over to him where they are really close) Oh my god. No fucking way. (laughs)

Noah: You may be my friend Luke, but I will seriously hurt you. (cracks his knuckles)

Scarlet: As much as I would want to see this. Shouldn't we be going?

Luke: Yes, we should. (glares at Noah in a joking way) You don't have to take your bed and stuff like that. We have quite a few rooms available in our hideout.

Scarlet: (thinks for a second) Since you two like to fight, why don't you both take those heavy boxes and i'll carry my typewriter and phone.

Noah: Yes mamn. (they grab the heavy boxes and go outside)

Scarlet: (grabs her keys and heads outside with them) (she unlocks her car) This is my car, just set it in the back seat. She buckles the typewriter next to her and gets in. I'll meet you guys there, I guess. (closes her door and starts the car. It fails to start but does so after 3 attempts.) (the boys put on their helmets and ride off. She follows closely and almost takes out a mailbox. They drive for 15 minutes and pull into a place in the forest. She hits a tree trying to pull in and shuts off the car)(she gets out)

Luke: (gets off his motorcycle) (pulls off his helmet) Where did you learn to drive?? (laughs and pulls out some boxes)

Scarlet: I drive perfectly thank you.

Noah: (takes off his helmet) The first thing we should do is give you some driving lessons.

Scarlet: (rolling eyes) I took driver's education. They taught me everything I know. (grabs the typewriter and follows after Noah with Luke following behind her.)(They walk in and see many guys all playing pool and drinking beer)

Noah: (leads her down a hallway that is next to Luke's room and Noah's room.) Um, it's not the best but whatever you need just ask me or Luke and we'll get you it.

Luke: We'll let you get settled. (they walk out and Scarlet starts to unpack)

Scarlet: (puts stuff away and starts to type away at her typewriter.)(it has been some hours later and its pitch black outside)(she walks out of her room and inspects the house. She looks around and sees a boxing ring, a library, a pool, a movie theatre and a huge kitchen. She bumps into a small room with a guitar and piano in sound proof walls. She walks in and plays the piano while singing Burning House by Cam.)
