They drive back to Los Angeles without
saying a word to each other.The white truck stops next to Higgs'
Prius, which is sitting alone in
the Dodger's parking lot.
Higgs hops out, "Thanks for the ride
and the interesting company, whoever
you are."
Dodger Fanatic grabs Dwin's arm
as he's getting out, "If you ever need
anything, call me." She hands him a
card with a phone number.
Dwin sticks the card in his back pocket,
"Thank you."
The Dodger Fanatic BEEPS, waves and the
white truck drives away.
"That was weird. Huh, Dwin?"
Dwin seems out of it, "Yeah."
"You okay?"
"Yeah."
"Are your parents going to freak about
you getting home so late?"
Dwin stops, "My parents?"
Higgs knocks on the roof of his car,
"Earth to Dwin. It is late to be getting
home from school. You skipped school."
"They'll be fine. I told them I was having
dinner and studying with a friend."
"Good man, covering your ass like that.
Can you post what happened? Because
I've got a ton of work that I blew off
today. Betty and Barney are going to so
dig this."
Dwin nods, "Yeah, I will post."
