SCENE D

FADE IN:

INT. COLOR ME MINE - DAY (DAY 2)
(Caroline, Del, Annie, Cindy, Billy, Woman, Extras)

CAROLINE AND ANNIE ARE SITTING AT A TABLE. ANNIE IS PAINTING POTTERY.

ANNIE CROSSES OFF. A CUTE, TWENTY-SOMETHING COUPLE, BILLY AND CINDY, APPROACH THE TABLE WITH THEIR SUPPLIES.

CINDY

I hate to ask this, would you mind
scooching over a little?

CAROLINE

Excuse me?

CINDY

We were kind of hoping we could
sit here.

BILLY

(RE: SEATS) This is where we met, six
years, eight months and two days ago.

CINDY

It's our anniversary.

BILLY AND CINDY KISS.

CAROLINE

Please. Sit. I'll move to the
bitter side of the table.

CAROLINE SCOOTS OVER.

CINDY

Happy anniversary, Billy Bear.

BILLY

Twice back at ya', Cindy-doodle.

THEY GIGGLE AND KISS. ANNIE RETURNS.

ANNIE

Who are they?

CAROLINE

Billy Bear and Cindy-doodle. Satan
sent them.

CINDY

Oh pooh, they didn't give us any pink
for the bunny's nose.

BILLY

You stay right here. There's going
to be heck to pay.

BILLY KISSES HER AND WALKS OFF.

 
BILLY RETURNS CARRYING A SMALL CUP OF PAINT.

BILLY

I got pink for your bunny, Bunny.

BILLY LEANS IN TO KISS HER. NO LUCK.

CINDY

(ALL BUSINESS) That's cute, Billy.
Sit down.

BILLY

Is something wrong, Cindy-doodle?

CINDY

I want to know where our relationship
is going. I want to know if you're
going to commit to me. And I want to
know in twenty-four hours.

BEAT.

BILLY

I don't need twenty-four seconds.
Will you marry me, Cindy?

CINDY

Yes, yes, of course, Billy.

CINDY AND BILLY HUG AND KISS.

CAROLINE

Well, I did not see that coming.
