Harold Abbot continued to hold a struggling Amy, until she looked her Aunt
directly in the eye and spoke. AMY: (hysterically shouting) Why did you
have to save me? WHY?! After her outburst, Amy struggled free and ran out
of the office with speed no one knew she had. HAROLD yelling frantically:
"AMY?!" ANDY: "We've got to get her back here before she does any further
damage to herself." EDNA, using her best commanding-officer voice, gave the
troops orders: "Ok. We'll split up and find her. Andy and Linda: you two
get in Linda's car and try and find Amy. Ill call Irv and we'll call the
police and notify Amy's friends. Harold, when Rose gets here go and search
in all of the places you think she might be. Ill call Ephram and Bright to
see if they have any ideas. The group separated and went their separate
ways.
Andy and Linda walked downstairs and Linda is shaking, even though she has a heavy coat on. ANDY, with concern: "Are you sure that you are ok?" LINDA, trying to sound convincing: "Yeah, Ill be all right." Linda wipes away the tears in her eyes, as they got to the car. ANDY: I'm going to drive; you seem a bit shaken up. Linda doesn't protest as she hands him the keys and sits down in the passenger seat. Andy starts the car and Linda still has a forlorn look on her face, as she stares out the window. First they drive to Amy's house and find nothing. Next they drive to the Mountain with the bench overlooking Everwood and Amy still isn't there, all this time they do not speak a word to each other. They drive around Everwood, for an hour or two. LINDA: (suddenly sitting up) Wait! I have an idea! ANDY: What is it? LINDA: Go to the River. Andy drove there but still no sign of Amy! Linda picked up her cell phone and started to dial. ANDY: "Who are you calling?" Linda signaled for him to hold on while she waited a couple of seconds and hung up the phone. LINDA: "Well, it seems that no one is at your house. They must be looking for Amy." ANDY: "Where else should we look?" LINDA, as if struck by a sudden realization: "I have one more idea!" Andy resumed driving and Linda gave him directions.
The car stopped a little bit outside the town, in what seemed to be a forgotten graveyard, all except one headstone covered in many different flowers, gifts, and a weatherworn basketball jersey. Andy and Linda can see two distant figures next to the tombstone: one is a girl with a mass of long blonde hair with a fuzzy brown coat and a some jeans stained with blood and the other is a tall brunette boy with spiky hair wearing a tee shirt, black coat, and some kakis. The two people appear to be in some kind of argument. Linda rises to get out the car, but Andy puts his hand on her leg to stop her. ANDY, with a stern tone: "Let Ephram handle it; I think Amy will listen to him. She usually does."
Over near Collin's grave, Ephram tries to persuade Amy to live. AMY, annoyed: "Ephram, stay out of this! Just leave me alone so I can end my pain!" EPHRAM, in a soothing tone: "Amy, you have so much to live for. Your beautiful and smart and so many people care about you." Amy, who was looking forlornly at Collin's grave, looked at Ephram who was looking at her with deep loving eyes. EPHRAM continued: "When I look into your eyes, beyond the sadness and anger, I see your pure heart and your loving soul and I know that you will make the right decision. Death is forever, and you don't want to be sorrowful for all eternity, do you?" Amy shook her head and gave the two embraced in a hard hug and Amy cried on Ephram's shoulder. In the car, Linda and Andy smiled at each other; they knew that Amy would be ok. They saw Ephram and Amy brake away and Amy giggle at a joke cracked by Ephram. Over her shoulder, Ephram saw his Dad in the car. He gave him an acknowledging head nod and took Amy's hand, as they turned and walked back into Everwood.
