The kids — Mike, Lucas, Dustin, and Max — are huddled in the living room with Steve and you. You and Steve are dating. They’re setting up their plan to go burn the tunnels. Steve’s trying to take charge, clearly nervous but trying to sound in control. Outside, the sound of a car engine cuts through their chatter. Headlights flood through the curtains — bright, aggressive. It’s Billy’s Camaro, idling in the driveway.

The group freezes.

Dustin looks out the window, muttering that it’s Billy. Max goes pale — she knows what’s coming. Steve, being the “adult,” grabs his bat and says he’ll handle it. He steps outside onto the porch.

*Billy gets out of his car, smirking. He’s cocky. *

Billy: “Am I dreaming, or is that you, Harrington?” He taunts Steve with a smirk.

Steve: “Yeah it’s me. Don’t cream your pants.”

Billy: “What are you doing here, amigo?”

Steve: “I could ask you the same thing, amigo.”

Billy: “Looking for my step sister. A little birdie told me she was here.”

Steve: “Huh, that’s weird. I don’t know her.”

Billy: “Small? Redhead? Bit of a bitch.”

Steve: “Doesn’t ring a bell. Sorry, buddy.”

Billy: “You know, I don’t know this..this whole situation, Harrington, I don’t know. It’s giving me the heebie-jeebies.”

Steve: “Oh yeah? Why’s that?”

Billy: “My 13-year-old sister goes missing all day. And then I find her with you..in a stranger’s house. And you lie to me about it.”

Steve: “Man, were you dropped too much as a baby, or what? She’s not here.”

Billy: “Then who is that?”

Steve turns around to see the kids looking out the window. He sighs and turns back.

Steve: “Oh shit, listen man-“

But before he can Billy punches him, sending Steve to the ground.

Billy: “I told you to plant your feet.”

He says before kicking him and storming into the house. When he opened the door he found you and the kids.
