TRANSITION TO THE TYPEWRITER ABSTRACT PUPPET STAGE.

In the darkness, the sound of TYPEWRITER KEYS CLICK CLACKING sings out from somewhere nearby yet out of sight. Shortly thereafter the TYPEWRITER ABSTRACT PUPPET STAGE materializes.

MID-STAGE: CURTAINS CLOSED
The Mid-stage curtains open. The stage lights turn on with the sound of A LIGHT SWITCH CLICKING ON revealing…

MID-STAGE: EXT. MARY MARCHHARE’S FRONT PORCH AND FRONT WINDOW, DAYTIME
The front wall of Mary Marchhare’s house, with its blue vinyl siding spreads across the stage. A large bay window takes up a large portion of the wall. It is higher than the ground, making the bottom of the window visible in the frame but not the top. On each side of the bay window are smaller windows with movable shutters. At the stage-left side are four steps leading up to a landing and the front door. Mary Marchhare’s Living Room can be seen through the large bay window. White stucco walls are decorated with framed paintings of earlier twentieth-century race cars alongside photographs of various Boston Terrier dogs. There is also a selection of antique clocks on the walls. Near the window sits MARY MARCHHARE in a recliner. Next to the recliner is a shorter chair and an end table with a bulbous lamp. Mary is watching television. THOMAS TYPEWRITER enters from stage-left, carrying two moving boxes. He walks past the front window. BEANIE, Mary Marchhare’s pet Boston Terrier, leaps onto the second chair and barks out the window. BARKS MUFFLED BY GLASS sing out. Mary notices Beanie barking, leans forward, and sees Thomas. She sets down the tissue she had gripped and moves out of sight. Thomas climbs the four steps to the landing in front of the house’s front door. The porchlight next to the front door flips on. The front door opens. Mary Marchhare steps out and gives Thomas a hug.

MARY MARCHHARE
“Thomas!”

THOMAS TYPEWRITER
“Hi Grandma. I am dropping off the last of my stuff.”

MARY MARCHHARE
“Two boxes, that’s not much.”

THOMAS TYPEWRITER
“There’s more. It’s just in the car. Would it be okay if I brought it in through the garage?”

MARY MARCHHARE
“Sure. Since you’ll be living here, I have a garage door opener for you. You can have the spare one.”

THOMAS TYPEWRITER
“Wow. Thanks.”

Mary looks Thomas in the eyes, squaring her shoulders.

MARY MARCHHARE
“And remember, this is only a loan. I get it back when you move out. I do not want any strangers wandering into my house because you lost it. Got it. I am serious.”

THOMAS TYPEWRITER
“Sure, sure. I’ll keep it safe and give it back.”

MARY MARCHHARE
“Good. Now let’s get inside.”

Mary locks the screen door open, sliding the locking tab forward. She then steps inside and holds the inside, bit oak front door, open for Thomas. Thomas walks in. Mary closes the screen door, moving back the locking feature/slider, and then shuts the front door

TRANSITION FROM MID-STAGE TO HIGH-STAGE

THE CAMERA UNLOCKS FROM THE MID-STAGE. IT PANS UPWARD GLIDING OVER THE MID-STAGE SETS. IT CONTINUES PAST THE TOPS OF THE SETS AND ONTO THE CURTAIN OF CLOUDS VISIBLE BEHIND. UP AND UP THE CURTAIN OF CLOUDS TILL REACHING THE HIG-STAGE AT THE TOP. THE CAMERA SETTLES INTO PROPERLY FRAMING THE HIGH-STAGE.

HIGH-STAGE: CURTAINS CLOSED
The High-stage curtains part. The stage lights turn on with the sound of A COMPUTER BOOTING UP revealing…

HIGH-STAGE: INT. PHYSICAL THERAPY ROOM 604 IN THE FLUTE MEDICALSHIP
The room is similar to a ballerina dance studio. The back wall of the stage is covered in pads and some floor-length standing mirrors. Two rails, one at hip height and the other at knee height run across the mirrors. A weight-lifting machine sits on stage-left and another on stage-right. CARRO in their Medi-Pod is using the medi-pods extended arms to lift weights with a rope through a series of pulleys on the stage-left weight machine. IASO FLAUTO stands to the side guiding Carro. In the center of the stage stands CEDAR WAXWINGS in his Medi-pod using the Medi-pods retractable arms to lift dumbells from his side to over his head and back down. At the weight machine on stage-right stands LUCIDO OBSIDIAN in his Medi-pod using the Medi-pod’s retractable arms to crank a resistive lever. PANACEA FLAUTO stands between Cedar and Lucido watching over their motions.


PANACEA FLAUTO
(voice-over or narration) “Maestro, open medical log, please. Today marks an improvement in the attitude of Cedar Waxwing. He is making a full effort in therapy. His previous disposition of sullenness and defeatism have disappeared. Iasa and I had a second meeting and she revised her prediction of his possible recovery to full. If he can keep this up. We have also noticed a change in his friends’ attitudes as well. Lucido Obsidian and Carro were already on track for a near full recovery, but they now look posed for a full recovery. It is nice to see this change. When Cedar and I were in school together I never really cared for him. Maybe it was because I was too busy being interested in Lucido. Maybe it was because he was Lucido’s friend, not my friend. Maybe it was his sarcasm. Such a long time ago, who knows. Anyway, watching TV with him the other day, was nice. He is fun to be around. Haven’t laughed that much in a while. Sure he was still sarcastic but now it makes more sense. Doesn’t seem so abrasive, almost as if instead of attacking it is defensive. Wonder if he would want to watch the next episode. (pause) What am I saying? Maestro, please amend the medical log. Remove everything after recovery to full.”


As the narration finishes, Iasa stands and looks around.

IASA FLAUTO
“That is enough for today. Good job everyone. Keep this up and you will make a full recovery. Cedar, glad to see you trying.”

CEDAR WAXWINGS
“Feels good to try.”

Everyone starts to exit stage-right. Cedar and Panacea are towards the back or the last to leave.

CEDAR WAXWINGS
“Hey, Panacea.”

PANACEA FLAUTO
“Hey to you too. Good job today.”

CEDAR WAXWINGS
“Thanks. Hey, I was wondering if that show we watched…”

PANACEA FLAUTO
“Soapbubble Medical Theatre?”

CEDAR WAXWINGS
“Yeah, that’s the one. Is it every day, every week?

PANACEA FLAUTO
“Once a week. Why?”

CEDAR WAXWINGS
“Could I watch the next one? It was pretty neat.”

PANACEA FLAUTO
(pause) “I don’t see why not. My sisters are always bugging me to socialize more.”

CEDAR WAXWINGS
“Cool. Let me know when and I’ll be there.”

Iasa wiggles her eyebrows at Panacea. She sticks out her tongue. Iasa giggles and makes a face back. They exit. The stage-lights turn off with the sound of A COMPUTER BOOTING OFF. The High-stage curtains close.

TRANSITION FROM HIGH-STAGE TO MID-STAGE

THE CAMERA DETACHES FROM THE HIGH-STAGE AND PANS DOWNWARD. IT GLIDES OVER THE CURTAIN OF CLOUDS DESCENDING LOWER AND LOWER. THE TOPS OF THE MID-STAGE CURTAINS EMERGE FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE FRAME. THE CAMERA CONTINUES PANNING DOWNWARD, SLIDING OVER THE MID-STAGE SETS UNTIL PROPERLY FRAMING MID-STAGE.

MID-STAGE: INT. MARY MARCHHARE’S LIVING ROOM, DAYTIME.
A large bay window fills the middle of the frame. It looks out onto Mary Marchhare’s front yard. A smaller window of double framing flanks each side of the bay window. To the stage-left side of the bay window sits a recliner chair next to a smaller chair and an end table with a bulbous lamp, a glass of water with a straw, a boxy remote control, and a paper fan. To the stage-right side of the window sits a wooden wardrobe with a larger cathode-ray TV on top. MARY MARCHHARE sits in the recliner watching daytime television. The ambient sound of TELEVISION fills the stage. BEANIE sits in the other chair sleeping. Mary reaches over and picks up the glass of water taking a sip. She sets it down and picks up the fan. She starts to fan herself while dabbing at her face with a tissue in her other hand. THOMAS TYPEWRITER enters from stage-left. He walks to the side of Mary’s chair.

THOMAS TYPEWRITER
(gently touches Mary’s shoulder) “Grandma.”

Mary notices him and reaches for her remote control. She points it at the camera and click it off. The sound of TELEVISION STOPS.

MARY MARCHHARE
(turns to look at Thomas) “Yes.”

THOMAS TYPEWRITER
“Do you have another spot where I could store some boxes? I can’t fit everything in the bedroom. It is cool if you don’t. I’ll go through and donate some of it. I just don’t want to impose or crowd out your stuff.”

MARY MARCHHARE
“There’s room in the back barn, as long as you don’t block my lawnmower. I haven’t used the cabinets since Lawrie died.”

THOMAS TYPEWRITER
“And that won’t put you out?”

MARY MARCHHARE
“No, go ahead. Use it.”

Thomas leans down and kisses his grandma on the cheek while hugging her. She twists enough to hug him back.

MARY MARCHHARE
“The key is on the keyrack. Just make sure you return it when done.”

THOMAS TYPEWRITER
“Thanks Grandma.”

Thomas exits stage-left. Mary reaches for her remote and points it back at the camera. She presses a button and the ambient sound of TELEVISION fills the stage. Mary continues to watch her show. Beanie continues to sleep, rolling over to a more comfortable position. The stage lights turn off to the sound of A LIGHT SWITCH CLICKING OFF. The stage is illuminated by the soft glow of the television as the Mid-Stage curtains close.

LS OF THE TYPEWRITER PUPPET STAGE

The Typewriter Puppet Stage manifests illuminated by unseen lamps. The sound of TYPEWRITER KEYS CLICK CLACKING sounds out.

TRANSITION FROM THE TYPEWRITER ABSTRACT PUPPET STAGE TO MID-STAGE

PAN IN ON THE TYPEWRITER ABSTRACT PUPPET STAGE

PAN IN ON THE MID-STAGE AREA UNTIL IT IS PROPERLY FRAMED

MID-STAGE: CURTAINS CLOSED
The Mid-Stage curtains part. The stage-lights turn on to the sound of A LIGHTSWITCH CLICKING ON revealing…

MID-STAGE: EXT. OFFICES OF DOUBLEWAY RENTAL PROPERTIES. DAYTIME
A subdued natural stone color building fills the stage. A set of doors rest just stage-left of center. Stage-right of center the building has a twin set of triangular protruding windows. Brickwork of darked brown can be seen over each door and window. Stenciled in gold letters with a black shadow on the doors is the following text: “Doubleway Rental Properties Inc.”. From off-stage we hear the sound of A CAR PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE followed by CAR DOORS OPENING AND CLOSING. FOOTSTEPS grow louder preceding THOMAS TYPEWRITER entering stage-right. He crosses across the stage to the doors. He pulls open the closest door and goes inside. From stage-left a BUTTERFLY flies in and lands on the bricks above the windows. It flaps its wings as it warms itself in the sun.

TRANSITION FROM MID-STAGE TO HIGH-STAGE

THE CAMERA DISCONNECTS FROM FRAMING THE MID-STAGE AND PANS UPWARD. AFTER GLIDING OVER THE TOPS OF THE MID-STAGE SETS, THE CAMERA ASCENDS ALONG THE CURTAIN OF CLOUDS LINING THE BACK OF THE MID-STAGE. UP AND UP IT PANS. AT THE TOP OF THE CURTAIN OF CLOUDS IT SLOWS AS THE HIGH-STAGE SLIDES INTO VIEW. THE CAMERA FINISHES PANNING WHEN PROPERLY FRAMING THE HIGH-STAGE.

HIGH-STAGE: CURTAINS CLOSED
The High-stage curtains are closed but open shortly. As they part the High-stage stage lights click on with the sound of A COMPUTER BOOTING UP revealing a scene already in progress.

HIGH-STAGE: INT. PHYSIO-THERAPY OFFICE 505
A small desk sits on the stage-right side of the room. Bare walls, a soft pastel beige-pink divided by a wide horizontal white stripe, move stage-left and stage-right from the corner of the room behind the desk. On the walls are various medical posters related to physical therapy and therapeutic exercises. IASO FLAUTO sits at the desk, dressed in a white medical coat, hair up in a bun, fiddling with her small mirror-shaped medical scanner. Sitting in the front of the desk are the three Medi-pods housing LUCIDO OBSIDIAN, CEDAR WAXWINGS, and CARRO.

IASO FLAUTO
“And everyday we will meet to complete physical therapy.”

CEDAR WAXWINGS
“I don’t understand.”

LUCIDO OBSIDIAN
“Yeah, why physical therapy? How are we suppose to do that in these egg coffins.”

CEDAR WAXWINGS
“Isn’t the Medi-Pods repairing us. We’ll be fine when we get out.”

IASO FLAUTO
“Unfortunately no Cedar. To answer both of your points, yes the Medi-Pods will repair your bodies, and while yes it seems silly to ask you to conduct physical therapy while inside them, it is how they were designed. Normally your injuries would require surgery, a period of convalescence, and then another period of physical therapy and strength rebuilding. The Medi-Pod allows the two stages, healing and recovery, to overlap. ”

CARRO
“But why am I in one. I don’t have a body.”

IASO FLAUTO
“That used to be true. Solar/Lunar decided with your Sparkship shell lost, and honestly guys how’d you crash a Sparkship? A fleet of over one-hundred ships and only one has ever crashed. Yours.”

CEDAR WAXWINGS
“Now hold on, we didn’t crash the ship.”

LUCIDO OBSIDIAN
“Yeah, something hit the ship.”

IASO FLAUTO
“I mean, you guys should be worrying more about why you are not in jail instead of why the Doctor is telling you you have to do physical therapy.”

CARRO
“Oh.”

CEDAR WAXWINGS
“Why are we not in jail?”

IASO FLAUTO
“Heck if I know. Maybe cause coma victims make poor prisoners. Maybe Solar/Lunar is too embarrassed they lost a ship. Who knows. Not my concern.”

CEDAR WAXWINGS
“My dad. My dad is the embarrassed one. He’d never let it get out his son crashed one of his precious ships. Easier to put us here.”

LUCIDO OBSIDIAN
“So, who’s paying for all this.”

IASO FLAUTO
“The Solar/Lunar Fleet”

LUCIDO OBSIDIAN
“Oh.”

IASO FLAUTO
“Right now what is important is that we get you three healthy and healed, and in Carro’s case into a new body. Therapy starts tomorrow morning after breakfast. You can have the rest of the day to yourselves.”

Iaso presses a button on the mirror on her desk.

IASO FLAUTO
“Panacia, we’re done here.”

PANACIA FLAUTO
(off-screen) “I’ll be right there.”

IASO FLAUTO
“That is all for today gentlemen. If you wouldn’t mind waiting outside for Panacia, I have another appointment.”

The three Medi-pods wander out of the medical office. Once they are gone, Iaso turns to the large mirror behind her.

IASO FLAUTO
“Mirror, Mirror on the wall who needs forgiveness today.”

The mirror shifts and shimmers changing from reflecting the medical office to showing the Forgiving Place. Fiery light cast on the edges.

IASO FLAUTO
“Interesting. I’ll be over shortly.”

The High-stage stage lights turn off to the sound of A COMPUTER BOOTING OFF. The High-Stage curtains close.

TRANSITION FROM THE HIGH-STAGE TO THE MID-STAGE

THE CAMERA DETACHES FROM FRAMING THE HIGH-STAGE AND PANS DOWNWARD. IT MOVES OVER THE CURTAIN OF CLOUDS, DESCENDING LOWER AND LOWER. IT MOVES OVER THE TOP OF THE MID-STAGE SETS AND DOWNWARD FURTHER UNTIL PROPERLY FRAMING MID-STAGE.

MID-STAGE: EXT. THE DOUBLEWAY RENTAL PROPERTIES OFFICES. DAYTIME
A not-quite two-story pale brown brick building fills most of the stage. It ends just short of stage-right while extending out of sight of stage-left. Double-doors of glass, with the Doubleway Rental Properties logo painted just off-center. To the other side of center, stage-right side, three windows, each of a triangular prism form, jut out from the building. Red brick arches curve over the doors as well as each window. A butterfly rests on the side of the building sunning itself. THOMAS TYPEWRITER exits the building through the double-doors coming into our view. He is carrying a stack of papers. Thomas walks stage-right exiting off stage. From off-stage we hear the sound of CAR DOORS OPENING AND CLOSING, AN ENGINE TURNING ON, and lastly, A CAR DRIVING AWAY. The butterfly on the side of the building leaves the side of the building, flying around the stage. It flies upward, exiting by flying past the edge of the framing image. The stage lights turn off to the sound of A LIGHTSWITCH CLICKING OFF. The Mid-Stage curtains close.

MID-STAGE: MARY MARCHHARE’S LIVING ROOM
Two sofa chairs sit at a perpendicular angle to each other and each at an angle to the front of the stage. A wide side table with a brass bulbous lamp sits between the chairs. A large window, the window seen from the outside on the front of the house, sits behind the chair on the stage-right side. On the wall behind the stage-left chair a giant clock, shaped to look like a pocket watch on a chain, hangs on the wall. A small painting of an early 20th century race car hangs below the clock. Mary Marchhare sits in the chair on stage-left, fanning herself with a small paper fan she keeps in a drawer in the side table when not in use. Thomas Typewriter sits in the chair on stage-right holding a can of Sparkle Soda, deep in conversation.

THOMAS TYPEWRITER
“So that’s all of it Grandma. The proposal, the unemployment, everything.”

MARY MARCHHARE
“Well of course you can stay here while you figure things out.”

THOMAS TYPEWRITER
“I still do not know what to do about Ophelia. About working with her. For her on her film. Animated short.”

MARY MARCHHARE
“You’ll figure it out.”

THOMAS TYPEWRITER
“Did you ever regret working with Grandpa.”

MARY MARCHHARE
“Sure. All the time. He drove me crazy, but I’d do it again in a heartbeat. Silly as it sounds, I sometimes miss his complaining.”

THOMAS TYPEWRITER
“Really. Like what?”

MARY MARCHHARE
“Oh Thomas, I can still hear him. He’d start yelling “Jinny” Jinny, How I hated that nickname and he knew it. Jinny was another term for a stubborn mule where we grew up. I wasn’t a mule. He was the stubborn one.”

THOMAS TYPEWRITER
“When did you first meet Grandpa.”

MARY MARCHHARE
“Well. He used to run with the kids in the neighborhood. This was back in Rockford. He was living with his Grandparents and I was shipped off to my two aunts before going out south with my Grandparents. So I knew of him then, but we weren’t friends.”

The stage lights dim while Mary Marchhare speaks.

THE CAMERA DETACHES FROM THE MID-STAGE AND PANS UPWARD. IT MOVES OVER THE MID-STAGE SETS AND UP TO THE CURTAIN OF CLOUDS BEHIND. IT CONTINUES PANNING UPWARD. AT THE TOP OF THE CLOUD OF CURTAINS IT REACHES THE HIGH-STAGE. THE CAMERA PANS UP INTO PROPERLY FRAMING THE HIGH-STAGE

HIGH-STAGE: CURTAINS CLOSED

The High-Stage curtains part and the stage lights turn on with the sound of A COMPUTER BOOTING ON revealing…


HIGH-STAGE: EXT. THE FORE-GROUND THEATRE, DAYTIME

A boarded up theatrical venue lines the back of the stage. Their are four sets of doors, all with boards over them. To each side of the doors are two sets of poster cases. Each is currently empty. Above the doors is a simple marque for hanging style letters but the only thing on there is “CLOSED”. at the top of the marquee is a neon sign reading the following in a slightly stylized cursive script: “the Four-Grounds”. Sitting on the sidewalk in front of the theatre sits ORTHO MERCUTIAN, a cat-lady wearing a disguise of an old-man. Ortho has an open guitar case in front of them and is playing on a guitar for money from passing pedestrians. At this time there are none. Ortho sets down their guitar and stretches. The strings begin to vibrate on their own. Ortho reaches for the strings putting their fingers over the vibrating strings. A spotlight turns on focused on Ortho Mercutian while the stage-lights dim.

ORTHO MERCUTIAN
“No, I am glad you called. How is he? (pause) That is serious. And his friends? (pause) Same boat huh. What’s Solar/Lunar saying? (pause) Does not sound like them. Must be someone else getting involved. If they really go through with that I’ll cover the shortfall. Just heal them up. (pauses) In the meantime, keep me updated. (pause) Thanks, you too.”

Ortho removes their fingers from the guitar. The spot-light turns off and the stage-lights brighten. Ortho picks up the guitar and starts to play. The stage-lights turn off to the sound of A COMPUTER BOOTING OFF. The High-Stage curtains close.

THE CAMERA UNCOUPLES FROM THE HIGH-STAGE AND PANS DOWNWARD. IT MOVES ALONG THE CURTAIN OF CLOUDS. AS IT DESCENDS THE TOPS OF THE MID-STAGE SETS SLIDE UP FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE FRAME. THE CAMERA CONTINUES PANNING DOWN UNTIL PROPERLY FRAMING THE MID-STAGE

MID-STAGE: INT. MARY MARCHHARE’S FRONT PORCH, DAYTIME
A large window sits center-stage. A front door with small landing and steps sits to the stage-right of the window. The window itself occupies most of the stage, being made of three windows. Two smaller windows with screens sandwich buttress a large picture window. The porch lite turns right before the front door opens. THOMAS TYPEWRITER steps out onto the landing. MARY MARCHHARE follows him into the doorway. He turns and gives her a hug.

THOMAS TYPEWRITER
“Thanks again Grandma. Love you.”

Thomas steps away from Mary.

MARY MARCHHARE
“No problem. It’d be nice having another person in the house again.”

THOMAS TYPEWRITER
“So, I’ll be back tomorrow with the first of my stuff.”

MARY MARCHHARE
“Great. I’ll make dinner to celebrate.”

THOMAS TYPEWRITER
“Awesome. What are you thinking about making?”

MARY MARCHHARE
“Cacciatore. Maybe some bread.”

THOMAS TYPEWRITER
“Sounds great. Okay, I’ll see you tomorrow.”

Thomas walks stage-left down off the front porch and out of stage/frame. Mary Marchhare watches from the doorway. Once Thomas is out of frame, she waves goodbye and then closes the door. The stage-lights turn off to the sound of A LIGHTSWITCH CLICKING OFF while the Mid-Stage curtains close.
