(From Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back) The man laughs to himself quietly.

HOLDEN

On television already? Hmm..

Suddenly the apartment door opens behind him and a woman with short curled hair walks in with a purse and a nice business suit only instead of pants it's a skirt. Holden turns to face her with a smile, getting up from the couch, with the baby in his arms.

GERTRUDE

Did she miss me?

HOLDEN

Of course she did.

Gertrude bends down a little, kissing the baby on the forehead and taking her from Holden as he hugs her and they share a kiss.

HOLDEN

How was work?

GERTRUDE

It was great! Oh

But I had a little car trouble

I should take it by the auto shop

After work tomorrow.

HOLDEN

How bad?

GERTRUDE

Let's just say it'll get me to work and back safely.

Gertrude smiles to Holden and they kiss once more and Gertrude takes the baby into the bedroom.

CUT TO:

INT.: HOLDEN'S BEDROOM

Holden is holding the slightly crying baby. He tickles her tummy and she begins to laugh. He looks for a bottle but it's nowhere to be found.

HOLDEN

Argh! Let's call your mother.

Holden picks up the phone and begins dialing Gertrude's cell-phone.

CUT TO:

INT.: GERTRUDES CRASHED CAR

There are ambulances, cops, firetrucks all around the crash and Gertrude's hand is seen with the ringing cell-phone in it. Gertrude pulls her head up slightly to the camera's eye view and it only shows her lips moving slowly.
