61.<br />

When she abruptly gets up and leaves, Jerome follows -<br />

thinking twice before depositing the napkin in the near<strong>by</strong><br />

trashcan. A janitor reaches for the napkin. It is the Old<br />

Janitor, CAESAR, from Jerome's former life.<br />

CAESAR<br />

I'll take care of that for you,<br />

Mr. Morrow.<br />

<strong>The</strong> two men exchange a conspiratorial smile.<br />

EXT. <strong>GATTACA</strong> - WIND FARM. AFTERNOON.<br />

A forest of wind turbines, supplying energy to the aerospace<br />

complex. However the blades of the turbines are motionless<br />

in the still afternoon. JEROME finally catches up with<br />

IRENE. She turns, unsurprised <strong>by</strong> his appearance. Standing<br />

beside her, he looks out over the complex as if he too has<br />

come for the view.<br />

JEROME<br />

(eyes fixed on the<br />

view)<br />

We were looking at each other.<br />

You stopped.<br />

Irene, also keeps her gaze ahead.<br />

IRENE<br />

I'm sorry. I didn't mean anything.<br />

JEROME<br />

(shrugging as if it<br />

makes no difference<br />

to him)<br />

We were just looking.<br />

IRENE<br />

I know about you.<br />

Jerome turns to her, startled, trying to read her face.<br />

Irene takes a deep breath and abruptly plucks a long, dark<br />

hair from her head.<br />

IRENE<br />

(offering the hair to<br />

Jerome)<br />

Here, take it.<br />

Jerome, confused, takes the hair - more in reflex than intent.
