PIECES OF ME - JULY 2020 28 .
ELI My clients will understand . I ’ ll tell them I had an accident .
SOPHIE After your little stunt with the local news , I think the only time we ’ ll be having visitors is on Halloween .
( a beat ) Nobody in their right mind will want advice from a suicidal physician that looks like an actual asshole ... and acts like one .
ELI I ’ ll figure something out . I ’ m an adult . You don ’ t have to stay .
SOPHIE The last time you were alone , it didn ’ t work out so well , did it ?
No response . Just another disgusting slurp of tea . DING DONG . The doorbell echoes throughout the house .
ELI I ’ m not expecting visitors .
SOPHIE Let me handle it . Could be another media outlet .
ELI Okay . Let me clean up real quick . I still have blood in my finger nails .
She exits and we follow her to--
INT . FOYER --and checks the peephole . It ’ s a fisheye version of Gordon .
SOPHIE ( to herself )
What the hell does he want ?
She unlocks the door and opens it .
