A quiet two-screen theater. Andrew buys concessions. The GIRL at the counter is about his age. She’s pretty, but doesn’t really know it. More to the point, she doesn’t seem to care. Her name is NICOLE.
NICOLE
Swedish fish?
ANDREW
Nah, not this time, thanks...
Andrew and Nicole exchange smiles. He takes his items -- popcorn, Raisinets, two sodas -- and heads off. Peers back at Nicole. She’s staring into space. She looks suddenly lonely.
Andrew takes in the sight. You can tell he’s attracted to her -- but he’s too nervous to do anything. A beat later, he enters the theater.
