TITLE BOX
In the title box, RAYNE walks into the kitchen.
RAYNE
I think I want to be a weather witch when I’m older.
NEXT Panel. DAD tries to understand.
DAD
Do you mean a meteorologist?
RAYNE
No.
NEXT ROW
KITCHEN. DAD engages.
DAD
So why, exactly, do you want to be a meteorologist?
RAYNE
Weather witch.
DAD Gives in.
DAD
Fine.
RAYNE explains, and points to his leg.
RAYNE
It’s the only profession based on hunches, guesswork and twitches in my leg.
DAD tries to explain-
DAD
You know there’s an entire field of science behind it.
RAYNE
A cauldron and eyes of newt?
DAD is done with this conversation, RAYNE closes his eyes to sense.
DAD
You’ll make a great weather witch.
RAYNE
I’m sensing severe hail in the next 6 minutes.
RAYNE
Or possibly not.
