Lance
You’re not watching the meteor shower?
Mason
Wait a second. Let me go look.
Mason
Wow I never saw so many at once before.
Lance
I wish you were here. Then we could enjoy it together.
Mason
After my meeting tomorrow I will be on the first plane home.
Mason
Lance what’s wrong?
Lance
I think it was an earthquake.
Lance
The whole place just shook like crazy.
Lance
Yeah, some dishes didn’t make it but I’m fine.
Mason
Lance tell me what’s going on.
Mason
Is everything okay. What’s happening there.
Mason
I don’t know what I would do without you.
Lance
Fine just I’m on the balcony.
Mason
What part of be careful can’t you understand?
Lance
I will be careful. But if the fire gets too bad our house will be burnt too.
Mason
Here’s an idea. Call the fire department.
Lance
Duh. I already did.
Lance
It looks crazy out there. Nobody even paying attention to the fire.
Mason
My heart can’t take much more of this.
Lance
You won't believe me...
Lance
I think a meteor just hit the earth...
Lance
It’s huge. Smoke is everywhere.
Mason
Don’t get close to it.
Lance
As if I would. Some people are going down there though.
Mason
Idiots with a deathwish.
Lance
Tell me about it. So weird.
Mason
First the meteor shower, now a crash landing.
Mason
It’s like something out of a bad SciFi movie.
Lance
Weirder things have happened.
Mason
Well if they are coming for brains you’re safe.
Lance
Ha ha. Why do I date you again?
Mason
I’m not actually wounded.
Mason
Lance where did you go?
Lance
Some guys are poking at it and it moved.
Mason
The idiocy of our species baffles me at times.
Lance
I think they cracked it open.
Lance
Something is moving. There’s purple smoke coming from it.
Mason
Seriously Lance go back inside. Lock the doors and windows.
Mason
It could be dangerous.
Lance
I thought you didn’t believe in aliens.
Mason
I believe in radiation poison.
Mason
You really want to be near the people poking at something that fell from the sky.
Mason
Talk about opening scene to bad shit about to happen.
Lance
The fire department is here.
Mason
Good they can handle things.
Mason
Just go inside. All of that weird shit doesn’t set right with me.
Lance
I’m walking away now.
Lance
Wait cops are here too.
Mason
That’s normally how the world works, sweetheart.
Lance
I don’t feel so good.
Mason
You shouldn’t have gotten near that thing. Are you okay?
Mason
Maybe you should go to the ER.
Lance
It’s not that bad. I’m not sick I just...I feel wrong.
Mason
What do you mean you feel wrong?
Lance
I’m not sure. I just feel...off.
Mason
I can skip my meeting. I can be on the next plane home.
Lance
Don’t be silly. This is important to you. You need this meeting.
Mason
I need you more. If you’re sick I want to be there for you.
Mason
Don’t go quiet on me. It’s makes me worry more.
Lance
I’m okay. I just blacked out a little.
Mason
How you get blacked out and okay in the same sentence.
Lance
You worry too much. I’m fine.
Mason
At least call my mom. She’ll stay with you for the night.
Lance
The last thing I want is to spend a night with your mother.
Mason
She’s not that bad.
Lance
Says the son of the dragon lady.
Mason
LOL. Okay she is that bad. But she’ll look after you when I can’t.
Lance
I’m not a kid. Plus I just walked back into the house.
Mason
Get some rest then.
Lance
I’m going to lay down. I will text you when I’m up again.
Lance
Did you really come home?
Lance
I told you I was fine.
Mason
Huh? What time is it?
Lance
3 A.M. I told you not to come home.
Mason
Lance I’m still in my hotel. I’m going to come home right after the meeting.
Mason
Shit 3 A.M. I have to be up again at 5.
Lance
I heard someone one the door. It woke me up.
Mason
Call the police. Lock the bedroom door.
Mason
Just stay in the room. Hide someone.
Lance
They’re coming upstairs.
Mason
Shit. I knew I should have come home.
Mason
What hurts? Lance what’s going on.
Lance
My head . . . it hurts.
Lance
They’re . . . They’re calling my name.
Mason
Who’s in the house?
Lance
I can’t. I don’t want to.
Lance
Please don’t make me.
Mason
What are you talking about?
Lance
They want me to open the door.
Mason
Whatever you don’t don’t open the door.
Lance
They’re calling me.
Lance
They want me to come.
Mason
Come on Lance you’re freaking me out.
Mason
Don’t do anything stupid.
Lance
I don’t want to open the door.
Mason
I’m on my way home.
Mason
I’ll be there. I promise.
