(2 Days Later)
*Riley is leaning against the wall. She taps her fingers on the bench*
(There is a knock on the door)
*Man from jail security walks in*
Man From Jail Security: I'm not the visitor.
Riley: Heh. I'm thrilled. (Sarcastically)
MFJS: Just to let you know your visitor is coming in an hour or so.
Riley: I suppose you tell all the prisoners that right?
(MFJS looks at the ground and walks out)
Riley: What friendly service.
*Riley tries to waste time as she paces around, plays with her hair, and sit against different walls*
(Door opens)
*A man walks in. Not to be confused with the jail security man*
*He just stands there staring at Riley*
Man: Sorry I'm not who you expected.
Riley: (chuckles) Right now I could even stand my mother's company.
(Man and Riley hug for a moment and then sit on the bench)
Man: It's been a long time.
Riley: You're telling me, I was worried that I might have started growing a beard.
Man: Even though you're a woman.
Riley: I mean I might as well, nothing else to go here besides read and exercise.
(Long pause)
Both: So, how are you? (Both laugh then look down) *Riley sighs*
Man: Brad's ok.
Riley: That's good. How are my parents?
Man: Alive and well.
Riley: (Sadly laughs) Well, at least its good for them right? It's not like they have to worry about me getting shot or whatever.
Man: Not like you would have anyways.
Riley: ...So, what are you here for anyways?
Man: To tell you that you're going to be released and we would like you to come back to your job.
Riley: Who's asking you or Carter?
Man: Both of us.
Riley: Uh huh...you must be kidding, did someone hit Carter over the head?
Man: No, he just realized how much of an asset you were.
Riley: As compared to what? The new AI's.
Man: That experiment was a failure.
Riley: Oh so I'm just the living guinea pig right?
Man: You know I didn't mean it like...
Riley: Well. I suppose.
Man: What do you mean you suppose?
Riley: Okay so let me get this straight. Carter wants me to come back even though I haven't been in the field for years?
Man: Yep.
Riley: Either he wants me to die sooner or he has some pretty sucky recruits.
Man:(smirks) I think its both.
*Riley puts her head on his shoulder*
Riley: So really, how are you?
Man: I'm fine.
Riley: You sure?
Man: I thought I was supposed to ask about you?
Riley: I live in a cube.
Man: True.
Riley: So tell me Brazil won ATS 2 years in a row again right?
Man: No, actually the US won Astro Turf Soccer last year.
Riley: You got to be kidding me! (Lifts her head up)...And I wasn't there?...Now that's a conspiracy.
Man: Oh and Marlevini merged with some other foofy store.
Riley: Foofy? (Laughs) The big fish eat the smaller fish that's how it goes. I wonder if they still those shoes I wanted?
Man: That were 200 credits?
Riley: So?
Man: I guess I know what to buy now...
Riley: Oh jeez, just ruin the element of surprise, why don't you.
Man: Look. I really wish I could catch up two years with you but I got to go back to work and it's been busy lately.
Riley: So I heard.
(Man hands Riley a business card)
Man: Just call that number if you're still interested.
(Man stands up)
Man: You're still as beautiful as before.
Riley: (sadly laughs) Don't start.
(They hug again)
It was nice Vance.
Vance: (Kisses Riley's cheek) I'll see you out there.
Riley: Okay okay. Let me be with my damp cell.
(Vance leaves)
*Riley sits back down*
*Hold the card up with 2 fingers and stares at it*
*Sighs*
Riley: I suppose.
