EXT.  – A driveway in a suburban neighborhood – Day

Pam and Angela are putting the last of their bags in their small old Toyota.  It is the begging of summer and the weather is hot and perfect beach weather.  The sisters are ready for their long road trip.

Pam

I can’t wait to get on the road

Pam shuts the trunk and her dad Kevin walks up to the car. 

Kevin

Okay girls, here’s the scoop,

 I want you to drive safe, no unplanned stops, and call me as soon as you get there.

Angela

We know dad! 

Can we leave now?

The girls hug their dad goodbye and get in the car.  They wave out of the window as they drive away.

Pam

Here’s the scoop, we have to get on I-90 for 30miles then get off.

But first let’s gas up and get snacks and drinks.

Angela

Okay, okay we see who got dad’s controlling qualities. 

(Pam gives her sister a mean look but then laughs it off)

They drive off down the highway with the music blasting out of the windows.
