INT. JANE'S OFFICE -- DAY

               Renovations are extensive and bang along outside the office
               window.

                                   JANE
                         I need help, Sara needs you too.
                         He has started to get physical.

               Alex blows smoke back at Jane.

                                   ALEX
                         What does started mean?

               Jane tears up and searches for a pack of smokes in her
               desk.  Alex passes her pack over.  Jane holds a cigarette.

                                   JANE
                         This stays in this office, ok?

               Alex leans forward, and lights Jane's cigarette.

                                   ALEX
                         Go on.

                                   JANE
                         I won't get into character
                         assassination.  I am worried that
                         Dick will get more violent soon.

                                   ALEX
                         I am not sure how I can help,
                         especially being in here.

                                   JANE
                         I can take care of that.  What do
                         you need to help me?

                                   ALEX
                         A safe place, a new name.

                                   JANE
                         You want out of the program?

                                   ALEX
                         No, out of the facility.  An
                         apartment, a job.  Something
                         reasonable, cash.  A cell phone.

                                   JANE
                         Senator Stewart can arrange
                         anything, but you can't start a
                         job until this is fixed.  I trust
                         you.  Oddly enough, you are the
                         most stable one in the facility.

                                   ALEX
                         Now, that's funny.  What's my
                         part?

                                   JANE
                         Watch him.  See what he is doing,
                         and be there when I take Sara out
                         of the house.  Cover my back.

                                   ALEX
                         And if it gets....out of control?

               Jane offers Alex a cigarette.  Alex accepts.
