Scene Change: WOODS/ROAD/COUPLE IN CAR
DARREN: An hour's drive to hear that crap. You know, it wasn't even a band. A guy with a guitar. An hour each way.
BROOKE: He wasn't that bad.
DARREN: He sounded like James Blunt.
BROOKE: What's wrong with that?
DARREN: We already have a James Blunt. One's all we need.
BROOKE: So why did you come?
DARREN: Because I love you.
BROOKE: Nicely done. What's with all the fog?
DARREN: It'll clear in a second.
BROOKE: Watch out!
[They run over a man.]
DARREN: Are you ok?
BROOKE: We just hit someone! Oh my god!
DARREN: Call for help.
BROOKE: Come on, come on!
DARREN: Please be alive! Oh, my god.
[The man wakes up and bites him into the neck.]
BROOKE: There's no signal! Darren! Darren?

[Elena is writing in her diary.]
Elena: Dear diary, today will be different. It has to be. I will smile, and it will be believable. My smile will say "I'm fine, thank you." "Yes, I feel much better." I will no longer be the sad little girl who lost her parents. I will start fresh, be someone new. It's the only way I'll make it through.

Jenna: Toast. I can make toast.
Elena: It's all about the coffee, Aunt Jenna.

Jenna: Your first day of school and I'm totally unprepared. Lunch money?

Jenna: Anything else? A number two pencil? What am I missing?
Elena: Don't you have a big presentation today?
Jenna: I'm meeting with my thesis advisor at...now. Crap!
Elena: Then go. We'll be fine. You
