A sun-blessed morning at the Forrester mansion…
Stephanie makes her way towards the door, having just come through the garden from the guesthouse. Nick is sitting on the front steps, strumming away at his guitar.
Nick:
When
I was a young boy I wanted to sail around the world
That's the
life for me, living on the sea
Spirit of a sailor circumnavigates
the globe
The lust of a pioneer will acknowledge no frontier
I
remember you by thunderclap in the sky
Lightning flash, tempers
flare, 'round the horn if you dare
I just spent six months in a
leaky boat
Lucky just to keep afloat
La la la la la-la, la la…
Stephanie: Can't you play some place else? At the beach house perhaps?
Nick: Not really. Bridget's not talking to me because she thinks I still have feelings for her mother-
Stephanie: (coughs and rolls eyes)
Nick: -and it would seem that Brooke's getting back together with the dressmaker. What's a guy to do? (starts strumming again, then looks up at Stephanie)… Want to be drinking buddies again?
Stephanie: (throws her arms up into the air in despair, then marches into the house)
Nick: Aaw come on! (follows Stephanie)…
