1: Their car, seen from above, slowly crawls through city streets.
Julia: More research today?
Mel: Mhmm.
2: Julia is looking out the window as she talks, looking hopeful.
Julia: Yesterday, you were talking about maybe going out somewhere… We could find time for that today, maybe? Take our minds off things?
Mel: I’m not sure I have the time for it today.
3: Melissa grip the wheel tight as she speaks sternly, eyes not leaving the road.
Julia: You made time for Jackson.
Mel: Yes, I did. I wanted to see how he was doing, since I had to help take care of him for months while you were gone.
4: Seen from outside the car, Julia looks to Mel, angry. Mel doesn’t look at her.
Julia: Are you mad at me for being sick?
Mel: No, I’m just waiting for you to come home.
Julia: I’m home! I’m here!
Mel: Could have fooled me.
