STATION - FROM ACROSS ROAD - FULL SHOT
Bob and Paula walk across the road converging toward CAMERA as if heading for the same place. Bob is slightly behind, coming diagonally. They catch sight of each other as they approach. Paula comes to a sudden stop in the near side of the road, glaring coldly at Bob.

PAULA:(Coldly) Are you following me or am I following you? BOB:(Grimly) I'm beginning to wonder myself. PAULA:(Sarcastically) Perhaps we can go from here together. BOB:(Sardonically) Delighted...where are you going?

Paula glares at him and marches out of scene. Bob Follows.

SCENE 100
INTERIOR GARAGE - TOWARD ENTRANCE - MEDIUM SHOT
A ramshackle interior littered with parts of cars. There is also an antique Ford touring car. The front corner contains a battered desk and ancient cash register. Will Holley is leaning back against the wall, smoking a frayed cigar and looking through a Sears-Roebuck catalog (A Chic sale type). He is a small middle-aged man, wizened and weather beaten.

Paula enters, Bob following. Holley beams a welcome, shutting the catalog and getting up.

HOLLEY: Evenin', folks.

Paula realizes from his words that Bob has also entered and gives a brief cold glance back and then addresses Holley.
