Sandy is standing next to it presenting their proposal Sandy: (points) situated as it is the hospital will provide ready access to Newport's affluent an less affluent neighbourhoods, servicing the whole community (we see 3 business men sitting across from Sandy and Matt. one of them we later find out is Bill Merriam) Matt: more detailed budgets an schedules are in your folders, along with copies of the permits that we've pulled (one of the men takes a bite of a bagel and looks at his watch) Matt: we know you have another proposal to hear today, you should know we're ready to start any time, jus give us the green light Bill: well speaking for all of us you two have done a great job (stands) I only wish Caleb could'a ben here Sandy: thanks Bill, this project was close to his heart, he did have one as it turns out (shakes Bills hand) Bill: we'll contact you as soon as we've made our decision (Sandy and Matt are now in the room by themselves) Sandy: (pours coffee) now we wait (Matt looks at Sandy then down) what Matt: I took a look at Brea groups plan this morning, I didn't wanna tell you because I didn't wanna spook you before the presentation Sandy: (looks at Matt) so Matt: it's good Sandy: better than ours Matt: there both excellent...but the Brea group has been wining an dining Bill Merriam an the board for months I mean dinner, concerts, cruises Sandy: well we offered em bagels when they came in Matt: I'm worried that we've handicapped ourselves Sandy: when I got inta this I said I wouldn't do business by plying people with meals an gifts Matt: an I respect that, I do but what it could all come down to is who Bill Merriam likes more (raises eyebrows) Sandy: well, hopefully he'll appreciate the fact that we appealed to his intelligence...an not to his taste for Pinot CUT TO: Harbor school - Marissa and Summer are in the student lounge together, sitting at table looking through old photos of the Cooper family. we see one of the photos close up when the scene begins, it is of a young Julie Cooper holding a chubby baby in her arms Summer: here's a picture with Kaitlin (frowns) but what's wrong with this horse Marissa: (looks) that's China, she has alopecia Summer: eww, she looks like a giant Chihuahua (Ryan comes over) Ryan: hey, what's up (sits) Marissa: hey, so Kaitlin turns fifteen this weekend an I'm putting together an album for her Ryan: ah, that's nice of you Marissa: yeah well she hasn't ben home for one since she was (thinks) twelve (raises eyebrows) so we've got a few to make up for Summer: well as long as it comes with 2 carat diamond earrings I'm sure our little Kaitlin will be happy (Ryan looks at her) Marissa: my parents kinda went over board on Kaitlin's birthdays when she was little, it always made (looks at Summer) Summer a little jealous Summer: I need a coffee, anyone else (Ryan shakes his head.

Seth slowly walks towards the door but you guessed it, just before he is there he turns around and leaves. we then see the Brown guy in the room by himself) CUT TO: Roberts' backyard - now completely decorated for Kaitlin's party. we see balloons tied to a table full of presents, then we see a couple of random kids playing ball in the pool. some girls walking around. a couple of boys near a table. another kid near the drinks table by himself and then one of the boys in the pool hits the ball in the direction of Julie and Neil's table. Neil catches it and throws it back. we then see Johnny sitting on a pool lounge and Kaitlin is sitting with him. Marissa is sitting on the side of the hot tub by herself looking bored.

Sandy cringes and drinks) CUT TO: Roberts house - Kaitlin and Johnny are walking down the front stairs.
