She perches herself on the arm of the sofa. Eugene takes the<br />

opportunity to rest his arm on her leg.<br />

IRENE<br />

Good to see you're feeling better.<br />

EUGENE<br />

Now you're here. Who are your<br />

"friends"?<br />

IRENE<br />

It's about the Director.<br />

Again?<br />

EUGENE<br />

(feigning boredom)<br />

<strong>The</strong> Investigator slowly circles Eugene, regarding him with<br />

the utmost scrutiny. He compares his face to the doctored<br />

Gattaca ID photo - a passable likeness. Eugene bends towards<br />

the bowl and dry retches.<br />

EUGENE<br />

Forgive me for not getting up.<br />

Irene puts a comforting hand on Eugene's shoulder.<br />

IRENE<br />

(to the Investigator)<br />

INVESTIGATOR<br />

unpacks a syringe from the kit he carries.<br />

DETECTIVE HUGO<br />

Detective Hugo swabs Eugene's inner arm. All eyes are<br />

trained on the tip of the needle as it punctures the vein.<br />

EUGENE<br />

referring to the<br />

blood flowing into<br />

the syringe)<br />

It's okay. Maybe they can find<br />

out what I've got.
