Scene One
Cars driving on the highway. The camera zooms in on one car to see Jarod driving and dialing the phone. Cut to the Centre in Sydney's office where Miss Parker is showing Sydney the photo of their moms together. The phone rings and Sydney answers it.
"This is Sydney."
"Have you heard from Broots yet?" asks Jarod on the other line.
"Jarod?"
"Yes, Sydney, it's me."
"No, no we haven't. In fact we haven't seen or heard from him since he went to Dr. Thompson's house. Miss Parker and Ethan couldn't get to the house because of the police outside. We don't even know if he is alive."
"So I was the last one to see him then."
"What do you mean?" asks Sydney and he puts the phone on speaker.
"I was working as a NSA agent --- we were the cops they saw. We found a dead Thompson and then I found Broots in the closet. I was forced to arrest him and make up his story. The last time I saw him he was in my car and babbling about having a breakdown and told me about Alex kidnapping Mr. Parker. After that I let him out on the side of the road so that he wouldn't get killed. That was the last I saw of him."
"Hum, interesting. You don't suppose that he really had a nervous breakdown?"
"I don't know. I'm driving to where I left him for clues. Tell me if you hear anything."
"I will. Oh, Jarod?"
"Yes, Sydney?"
"How are you? I mean are you ---"
"From that tone I take it Miss Parker showed you the picture of our mothers together. In fact, I bet she's in the room right now, too."
Miss Parker walks toward the phone. "Jarod." she says in her most monotone voice.
"Oh, hi Miss Parker. By the way, have you talked to your fath-- um, Mr. Parker yet?"
"On my way there, why?"
"Just wanted to know. Oh and Miss Parker?"
"What?"
"Whatever he tells you, always trust your inner sense. It may be the key to everything."
"I will. Have heard from Ethan?"
"No, but you'll be the first person I talk to when I do."
"Thank you."
"I'll keep you both briefed on the Broots thing." (Click)
"Jarod? Jarod?" says Sydney. "He hung up." he says looking at Miss Parker. "Are you going to go see your father now?"
"I'm going to see Mr. Parker, if that is what you mean."
"Be careful. There are eyes everywhere."
"I will, Syd." Miss Parker turns and walks out of Sydney's office.
Sydney sits down at his desk and looks at the photo. "What is going on here?"
