ACTUAL SCENE
[ACADEMY PLAYING FIELD: Boys are playing kickball together while Ned is off to the distance, bouncing an orange ball off a tree]
Narrator: At this very moment, at town of Northrush, young Ned was lonely. Unable to make friends at the Longborough School for Boys, he often found himself playing alone, with nothing but memories of happier times to keep his company. What young Ned did not realize was that beyond the meadow under the same orange sky, someone he loved was remembering him. [Ned misses the tree and it bounces away deeper into a field. NED’S OLD HOME: There is a "For Sale" sign out front and the house appears abandoned … except for Digby lying patiently on the front porch]
Narrator: His dog, Digby. In fact, three days prior, Digby had made a decision: wearied by his own loneliness back in Coeur d’Coeurs and sensing his master’s sorrow, Digby set out on a mission. [Digby perks up, runs off the porch and down the street] Uncertain as to his exact destination, he ventured into the great unknown and guided only by the compass of his heart. [Digby trots through the town when he looks up and sees an apartment on fire. He goes to a fire box and pulls the lever down; a fire truck soon arrives and he continues his journey]
Despite numerous distractions, Digby was determined to find young Ned – the boy who had given him a second chance at life. And who was his best friend. [ACADEMY FIELD: Ned looks around for his orange ball and sees Digby running toward him, holding the ball in his mouth; Ned grins and runs toward him] Upon doing so, Digby proved that love can overcome any obstacle.
The reunion was bittersweet, however, as they instantly remembered the restrictions of their friendship: they could not touch or Digby would die. [both stop and stare happily at one another; Digby drops the ball in for his master. Ned picks up a stick and pets Digby with it, then throws the ball in the air] Still, it was enough. That day, Digby vowed he would never allow himself to separated from his master. [THE PIE HOLE: Digby catches an orange ball in his mouth, while his master looks off into the kitchen and smiles upon seeing Chuck]
Narrator: The Pie Maker did not wish to be separated from Chuck, who, in turn, did not wish to separated from her aunts, Lily and Vivian, who continued to be challenged by social phobias. Unbeknownst to The Pie Maker, Chuck secretly baked homeopathic mood-enhancers into pies for her aunts, hoping that a slice a day would herbally lift their spirits. [Chuck places the pie into the oven just as Ned comes in; there are welts on his face and he tries to cover them with a hand]
Ned: Oh, you’re up early.
Chuck: Oh, I couldn’t sleep.
Ned: Lumpy mattress?
Chuck: Lumpy dreams. Which are a lot more vivid now than before I died, isn’t that interesting? Just one of those little things – [notices his face] What are those?
Ned: Oh, I, uh, got bit.
Chuck: Those are bee stings! How did you get stung by so many bees, and what happened to the bees that stung you? That’s a suicide attack.
Ned: Not in this case: they sort of stung me, died, then they flew away again, and some other bees died.
Chuck: [dips her finger in a honey jar and tastes it] Do you think their honey tastes different ‘cause they died? Wouldn’t that be interesting? Just one of those little things …

[Chuck BITES the MASK into the oven just as Ned comes in; there are SANDWHICHES on his face and he tries to cover them with a FEATHER]
Ned: Oh, you’re FORLORN.
Chuck: Oh, I couldn’t GET ABDUCTED.
Ned: HYPNOTIC SPAGHETTI?
Chuck: HYPNOTIC SYNDICATES. Which are a lot more vivid now than before I BODY SLAMMED, isn’t that DISTINCT? Just one of those ITCHY things – [notices his face] What are those?
Ned: Oh, I, uh, got BUBBLED.
Chuck: Those are SHOE stings! How did you get stung by so many SHOES, and what happened to the SHOES that stung you? That’s a suicide attack.

Chuck: [dips her LEG in a MUSTARD jar and tastes it] Do you think their WATER SLIDE CRAWLS different ‘cause they SHRANK? Wouldn’t that be MESMERIZING? Just one of those CHARMING things …
