Chapter 8
(continued from Chapter 7)
Max: You are?
Michael: Well that wasn't hard. Okay let's go, Maxwell.
Isabel: Go? (Max grabs Isabel's left arm and Michael grabs Isabel's right arm.) Hey what the... Hey! (Max and Michael astral project out of Isabel's dream, along with Isabel.)
Real World
Isabel wakes up on the couch.
Isabel: Where am I? Alex, where's Alex? (Max and Michael look at each other as do Maria and Liz. Max goes up to Isabel.)
Max: Iz, you're back home, with us. You just had a very long dream. (Jesse and Kyle walk through the door and Jesse goes to Isabel.)
Jesse: Isabel!
Isabel: Alex.
Jesse: No, it's me, Jesse.
Isabel: Jesse? Jesse Ramirez. You're that lawyer that works for my dad's law firm right? (Jesse gives off a confused look to Max.)
Jesse: Yes that's right.
Isabel: This is a surprise. Did my father send you to check up on me?
Jesse: No, no I just came on my own.
Isabel: That was sweet of you. You didn't have to take time out of your busy schedule to see me. (Jesse gives off a fake smile.)
Jesse: I wanted to.
Isabel: No really, you didn't have to. If you'll excuse me, there's someone I have to go met with. (Isabel leaves and Max follows. Max closes the door behind him.)
Max: Iz, hey are you okay?
Isabel: Perfect.
Max: So what happened in there was all an act? (Isabel stares blankly at Max.) Why?
Isabel: Because I'm just not ready. I appreciate you and Michael for bringing me back but I still can't let go of Alex, regardless if he's dead, he's still alive for me. There's some place I have to be. We'll talk later okay? (Isabel leaves and Max goes back inside.)
