EXT./INT. GARAGE - DAY 1 - PRESENT DAY
Late afternoon. A car approaches a garage. The front lights enlighten the old white a bit rusty freezer in the back of the garage. Two women get out of the car. MARY - exhausted in her fifties, slim and always quietly smiling locks the car and walks out of the garage. JENNY (23), her daughter, energetic, a bit chubby, follows MARY out of the garage towards the white, flaked away, two floor family house. JENNY has hands full of shopping bags. The garage door close by themselves.
CUT TO:
INT. HALLWAY - DAY 1 - PRESENT DAY
Lock rattles. Two women enter the empty house - a bit cluttered, it could use a man’s hand. Old pictures of a mother and a child are stuck on the wall. MARY hangs the
keys on the hook, JENNY lays the bags on the ground and starts to take her shoes off.
MARY
Did I lock the car?
JENNY
Of course you did. Go check if
you’re not sure...
