INT. HOUSE - SITTING ROOM

Twimii enters and quietly sits back down in her chair. Barbara and Rabbit are sitting back on the sofa. The music is turned down low and it’s playing old tunes from the 1930s. Greg is chatting with them. Cow is rubbing the carpet making patterns, not really engaged in the conversation. Everyone looks more tired-drunk than drunk-drunk.

BARBARA

No. I just met these guys yesterday. They picked Danny and me up in Bailieborough.

GREG

Ah OK. … And where’s Danny now?

BARBARA

I don’t know. He left this morning with the truck that brought you here. I assume he came back…

GREG

He was on the truck? What’d he look like?

BARBARA

Young … same sort of height as you, dark hair…

GREG

Thin, bit of a beard?

BARBARA

Yeah.

RABBIT

He came back with you?

Greg nods.

GREG

He only came here yesterday?

Rabbit nods. Barbara is looking into the distance remembering seeing the gang for the first time.

BARBARA

When I saw their car being driven by a doll and a teddy bear…

Greg looks from Cow to Rabbit, still puzzled.

GREG

You drove here in costume? You left Dublin like that?

Rabbit looks at Greg a moment and nods slowly, waiting to see if the truth is dawning on him. Greg is getting more suspicious and feeling more sober.

INT. HOUSE - KITCHEN

There are now some leftovers of dinner taken out of the fridge and left on the counter.

Ted is standing in front of the window staring out into the darkness.

Tammy wanders into the kitchen.

TAMMY

Hey.

Ted turns around, a little startled.

TED

Oh hey. - uh … are you hungry?

Tammy stretches out her arms, smiling.

TAMMY

Come here and give me a hug.

Ted obliges. Tammy gives him a big hug, rocking him from side to side, then she nestles into his soft fur for a moment. She pulls back her head and looks up at his gently smiling face.

TAMMY

You’re like a real live teddy bear!

She gently strokes the fur on his face staring into his eyes.

TAMMY

Kylie would love you…

Her face contorts with sadness and she starts crying. Ted tries to comfort her, patting her back gently.

Greg is in the hall and with an audible sharp whisper is calling Tammy’s name.

GREG (O.S)

Tammy!

Here.

TED

Greg walks into kitchen, a little hesitantly. He is looking wary - but this changes to concern when he sees Tammy who is now quietly sobbing.

Greg gently takes Tammy from Teds arms into his, while gently saying her name or Tams or other soothing things.

Ted takes a couple of steps back. He looks at the leftovers on the counter a little mournfully before moving towards the door.

TED

The bedroom on the right at the front is free. If you need somewhere.

Greg nods at him, still a little wary.
