STANLEY NODS. HE SMILES AND STROLLS TOWARD THE RESTROOM. THE CAMERA FOLLOWS SHEEPISHLY.
BUS GUY
Um . . . Clarissa . . .
STANLEY TAPS THE RESTROOM DOOR. CLARISSA OPENS IT JUST A LITTLE.
CLARISSA
I need you to make me feel good, Stanley. Really good. Ok?
BUS GUY
I'll try.
CLARISSA PULLS STANLEY INSIDE AND SLAMS THE DOOR IN THE CAMERA'S GLASSY FACE. IT RETREATS AND CLOSES ITS EYES.

INT. JFK INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT - TERMINAL 4, LEVEL 1 - DAY
(CLARISSA, EMILY, BUS GUY, ROBYN)
STANLEY'S IN CLARISSA'S EMBRACE, AND ROBYN IN EMILY'S. IT'S TIME FOR TWO PAIRS TO SPLIT. WE'RE IN TERMINAL 4 OF JFK INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT. SHOULD YOU VENTURE INTO JFK THIS WILL MOST LIKELY BE WHERE YOU'RE DIRECTED TO OR WHERE YOU END UP. IT'S WHERE IT'S ALL AT.
CLARISSA
It was so nice meeting you, Stanley.
CLARISSA KISSES STANLEY ON THE LIPS AND SMILES.
BUS GUY
I won't forget you.
CLARISSA
No. You certainly won't.
CLARISSA LOOKS AT EMILY. EMILY SMILES AND NODS. CLARISSA PULLS OUT HER THIN WALLET AND REMOVES A CARD.
CLARISSA
Stanley, this is one of my father's political campaign cards. Now, I'm not giving this to you to try to persuade you to vote for the guy or anything, but just so that you have something to remember me by . . . don't be too shocked if you see me on national television later in the year, Stanley.
CLARISSA PASSES THE CARD TO STANLEY.
BUS GUY
Huh? Who is your father?
CLARISSA
It's on the card.
STANLEY GLANCES AT THE CARD.
BUS GUY
Jon Huntsman. Hey - I've heard of him . . .
CLARISSA
My name's Clarissa Huntsman. I'm one of his adopted daughters. You don't have to believe me; sooner or later you'll see me on television. I'm sure of it. Just know - when you see me - that you and I shared a special moment and that I'll never forget you. You'll return to Utah one day, Stan?
BUS GUY
Of course. I can't believe this. Ha ha. I made out with a famous chick! This has to be one of the best days of my life.
ROBYN
So this is why you got the airline tickets so easily.
EMILY
Yeah. Clarissa loves over the phone negotiations.
ROBYN
It was so nice meeting you both. Could I take a card too?
CLARISSA
Sure.
CLARISSA HANDS ROBYN A CARD.
CLARISSA
You'll be following his campaign? You may catch me on CNN.
ROBYN
Yeah.
ROBYN GIVES CLARISSA A HUG AND EMILY STANLEY.
CLARISSA
We'll meet again someday. Oh - and if you wanna get to Manhattan the best way is probably by train. You don't wanna get a taxi - it's, like, about $50.
EMILY TAKES OUT TWO $50 NOTES. SHE PASSES ONE TO STANLEY AND ONE TO ROBYN.
EMILY
Here's 50 anyway, for each of you. We got a lot, so don't worry 'bout it.
BUS GUY
Thanks.
ROBYN
Thank you.
CLARISSA
You deserve it. Both of you. And if you're stickin' around here for a while - you can even sleep here at the airport if you like but it's kind of boring - then you can either store your luggage for $16 a day just over there, or get it wrapped in plastic so it doesn't get stolen [1.], but that's - like - $30. Total rip-off. This is why Emily and I didn't bring luggage with us. Um . . . but I would say catch the AirTrain [3.] first. Totally free. It just covers the airport terminals 24/7. The station's one level up. Then get the A Train to Manhattan. But if you end up on the Long Island Rail Road you'll be paying - like - $14 to get to Manhattan [3.], and it's real annoying coz this stupid conductor approaches you and . . . like, last time we were here Emily and I bought MetroCards [2.] and put on $20 each and the conductor still charges you an extra $14. Really annoying. Mainly coz we had to get out our wallets again.
EMILY
Clarissa!
CLARISSA
Hmm?
EMILY
Stop rambling. They'll make it to NY alright. You're - like - playing their mother or something, girl. What do you say, guys? Anything else you need to know?
BUS GUY
I'm cool. Thanks again.
CLARISSA WINKS AT STANLEY.
CLARISSA
Thanks Stan.
ROBYN
Yeah. See you.
THEY LEAVE THE GIRLS, THE SCENE, AND POSSIBLY THE ENTIRE SCREENPLAY. THE CAMERA SEARCHES FOR THE TIME, BUT CAN'T FIND IT, AND SO FOCUSES ITS ATTENTIVE LENS AGAIN ON CLARISSA AND EMILY.
CLARISSA
Now what?
EMILY SCANS THE SCENE WITH HER EYES, AS THE CAMERA SCANS HER EYES; THEN THE CAMERA SCANS THE VERY SAME SCENE IN THE VERY SAME WAY AND WE FIND OURSELVES SWIMMING THROUGH JFK.
EMILY SHRUGS.
CLARISSA SMILES.
CLARISSA
We find anchovies.
AGAIN THE CAMERA LOOKS AROUND, BUT BY THE TIME IT'S READY TO RETURN ITS GAZE TO CLARISSA AND EMILY THEY HAVE DISAPPEARED. IT SHRUGS AND FALLS TO THE GROUND LIKE LITTER; OBSERVATIONS ALL BUT LOST, LEFT LYING ON A METAPHORICAL CUTTING-ROOM FLOOR . . . NO DIRECTOR IN SIGHT . . .
