Gables Estates, house, 7pm
Lori: *places bowl on table*
Steph: *picks up spoon*
Lori: I know it's not exactly Dad's food but this is my specialty.
Steph: *sniffs* It smells weird.
Lori: It's good for you.
Steph: I don't like it.
Lori: You haven't tasted it.
Steph: Daddy says not to eat stuff if you don't know what it is.
Lori: It's called Sancocho. It's stew.
Steph: *staring at bowl* ...What's that gushy stuff.
Lori: Those are plantains. It's like a sweet banana.
Steph: *lifts brow*
Lori: Don't worry, they don't taste like bananas in the stew. They're more like potatoes this way.
Steph: What's the meat?
Lori: Um....let's just say pork.
Steph: *scoops up stew*
Lori: *grabs knife, slices bread*
Steph: *eats stew*
Lori: How's it taste?
Steph: Nummy.
Lori: *smiles* Good.
Scott: *walks in, places briefcase on floor*
Lori: *looks into foyer* Hey! Just in time for dinner.
Scott: *looks at watch* Really.
Lori: Yeah.
Scott: *walks over* What's that smell?
Steph: Sococho.
Lori: *smiles* Sancocho.
Scott: *walks over to counter, picks up package* ...How were you able to find cow intest-
Lori: *covers Scott's mouth* Shut up or she won't eat it.
Scott: *stares at Lori*
Lori: *lets go* Want some?

Lori: *grabs bowl* It's good.
Scott: *looks at bowl*
Lori: *lifts spoon* Have some.
Scott: N-
Lori: *shoves spoon into Scott's mouth*
Scott: *clears throat*
Lori: *places bowl on counter*
Scott: *wipes chin* ...It's um...it's...tasty?
Lori: *claps* YAY! This is great. I've had the opportunity to try dishes from your people and now you've tried one from mine!
Scott: ...Californians?
Lori: *smile fades* No, honey. Colombians.
Scott: ....You're American.
Lori: *walks away*

Scott: *looks at Lori*
Lori: *turns on sink, grabs cloth*
Scott: You going to visit your father when the time comes?
Lori: *shakes head* No, I don't think so.
Scott: I'm sure he'd appreciate your support.
Lori: *wipes arms* I bet.
Scott: And I thought
I was angry with him.
Lori: You never stay angry at anyone, Scott. *grabs towel*
Scott: *looks down* ...What's with the bruises all over your legs?
Lori: Oh that was Tom. I was teaching him how to dance.
Scott: *lifts head* ...So he beat you up?
Lori: *smiles* He wasn't exactly a natural. *shrugs* He got the hang of it.
Scott: Wait,
you were teaching him?
Lori: Yeah.
Scott: ...Really?
Lori: I'm not that bad.
Scott: You're not that good, either.

Lori: *lowers head*
Scott: *kisses Lori*
Lori: *places hands on Scott's chest, turns head away* Stop.
Scott: *stares at Lori*
Lori: I'm tired, I want to go to bed.
Scott: *lowers head, nods*
Lori: *lies down*
Scott: ...We need to talk about this.
Lori: No we don't.
Scott: Lori...
Lori: *sits up* I'm allowed to say no to you.
Scott: Absolutely.
Lori: Then why do we need to talk about it?
Scott: I just want to know if there's something wrong. If you're okay.
Lori: *scoffs* I'm finally
not jumping all over any man I can find and suddenly something's wrong with me.
Scott: I'm not trying to insinuate-
Lori: Goodnight, Scott. *lies down*
