TITLE BOX
In the title box, RAYNE is in the kitchen with MOM, when DAD walks in. RAYNE shrugs.
DAD
Come on, we have to go to the dentist.
RAYNE
Pass.
RAYNE walks out, leaving a bewildered MOM and DAD.
DAD
Can he do that?
MOM
I honestly don't know.
NEXT ROW
At SCHOOL, RAYNE walks into the classroom, where all the other students are already sitting down. Before TEACHER can speak, RAYNE starts his tale.
RAYNE
First, I tried to follow the Moskva-
RAYNE
Straight down to Gorky Park.
RAYNE looks sad.
RAYNE
But I just couldn't hear it.
RAYNE explains.
RAYNE
I couldn't hear the winds of change.
TEACHER glares at RAYNE, who shrugs in the doorway.
TEACHER
Recess ended 10 minutes ago.
RAYNE
And yet here we are.
RAYNE goes to sit down.
RAYNE
You, angry at my tardiness.
RAYNE
And me, not knowing what a Moskva is.
