we've got the world by a string

















Dwin is at the kitchen table with
BARRY (45) and LAURA SMITH (35), 
his foster parents. The Smiths are "A
Typical" North of Montana, Santa Monica.
They are somewhat successful, somewhat wealthy
and somewhat bored/salamander looking from 
their recent eye lifts and or botox injections.
They are both devouring the L.A. Times
and a healthy breakfast.

Dwin quietly crunches his cereal.

Barry speaks without looking up from the paper,
"You got plans today?" 

Dwin's not sure if he's speaking to him or Laura. 

Barry smiles at Dwin, "You hanging with some 
friends or something today?" 

Dwin quickly wipes his mouth, "I thought I might 
hang out here and do some stuff." 

Barry nods, "I hear you. Nothing like a little alone 
time. Right, bud?" 

Dwin sweetly agrees.
