INVESTIGATOR (cont'd)<br />
How could something so lovely be<br />
a product of chance?<br />
VALERIE<br />
Is that what keeps you coming back?<br />
(meeting his gaze)<br />
Look at you. Such angry,<br />
beautiful, perfect eyes. Do you<br />
ever wonder what they would see if<br />
they weren't quite so perfect?<br />
<strong>The</strong>y will never see what I see.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Investigator tries to laugh off her assertion but his<br />
tight-lipped smile betrays his displeasure.<br />
INVESTIGATOR<br />
(a cruel edge to his<br />
voice)<br />
You have so much wrong with you,<br />
you'll be lucky to see next year.<br />
He roughly forces himself on top of her but she remains<br />
defiant.<br />
VALERIE<br />
Are you so much more alive,<br />
Investigator?<br />
INVESTIGATOR<br />
(parting her legs)<br />
I'm not paying you to talk.<br />
INT/EXT. IRENE'S CAR. NIGHT.<br />
IRENE drives, JEROME at her side. Cars are being flagged<br />
down <strong>by</strong> uniformed POLICE OFFICERS. Irene slows down behind<br />
the car in front. Spying an OFFICER shine a flashlight in<br />
the eyes of the MALE DRIVER up ahead, Jerome wipes the<br />
contact lenses from his eyes and flicks them out of the<br />
passenger window when Irene is not looking.<br />
An OFFICER approaches Jerome and, without a word, opens an<br />
electronic testing kit worn on his hip. He removes a<br />
sterilized Q-tip and motions for Jerome to open his mouth so<br />
he can scrape a culture. Jerome waves his hand in front of<br />
his mouth, feigning embarrassment.
