\n“Mount Waxahachie”<\/b><\/p>\n

FADE IN:<\/p>\n

INT. SNOWY FOREST CLEARING – DAY<\/p>\n

JERRY (20s) sits in a quiet spot in the woods on a cold winter day. He holds a hamburger wrapped in wax paper.<\/p>\n

RILEY (50s) enters, exhausted and weighed down with hiking equipment. He sits and takes in the view.<\/p>\n

JERRY<\/p>\n

Cold for climbing, man.<\/p>\n

RILEY<\/p>\n

Yeah. Every year, January first, Theresa — my wife — she’d resolve to climb Mount Waxahachie. But…<\/p>\n

He shrugs.<\/p>\n

RILEY<\/p>\n

I guess I did this for her.<\/p>\n

JERRY<\/p>\n

Nice.<\/p>\n

RILEY<\/p>\n

She always said it was the most secluded place in the world, even though she’d never seen it.<\/p>\n

JERRY<\/p>\n

Oh. Yeah.<\/p>\n

RILEY<\/p>\n

So you must have climbed up the southeast approach?<\/p>\n

JERRY<\/p>\n

I work at the gift shop. They put in a pretty major road last year.<\/p>\n

O. S. a car RUMBLES BY, HONKING while its passengers HOOT and HOLLER.<\/p>\n

PASSENGER (O.S.)<\/p>\n

Party on Mount Waxahachie!<\/p>\n

Jerry gets up to leave.<\/p>\n

JERRY<\/p>\n

Customers.<\/p>\n

He hands Riley the hamburger.<\/p>\n

JERRY<\/p>\n

My Waxa-burger is still warm.<\/p>\n

He exits.<\/p>\n

Riley peevishly tosses away the burger.<\/p>\n

At the same time, another car RUMBLES PAST O.S.<\/p>\n

PASSENGER #2 (O.S.)<\/p>\n

Don’t litter, old dude!<\/p>\n

Riley gets up and trudges back the way he came.<\/p>\n
