Here's the full script that I am working on.
And now tonight's boring scene...
EXT - ABIGAIL'S HOUSE - FRONT PORCH
Abigail is sitting outside on her patio furniture, nervously awaiting Bryce's return. Beside her is her father Richard, neither is speaking. Both are sitting silently, waiting, contemplating. The sound of a car coming up the lonely road leading to her house catches both of their attention. Abigail see's Bryce's truck come into sight, she gets up and walks to the driveway to meet him. Concern is registered on her face.
Bryce pulls into the driveway, he takes a second to collect himself for Abby's sake and exits the vehicle.
ABIGAIL
Hey. How did it go? Was he home?

ABIGAIL
Well, lets celebrate! I been in baking mode all morning just to take my mind of things. How does wine and cake sound? Or pie. Or cupcakes. I went a little overboard.

Bryce doesn't really answer, he just nods off the question and moves to follow Abby into the house before Richard's next question stops him in his tracks.
RICHARD
Can I have it back? The gun?

BRYCE
I was thinking maybe I should hang onto it.
This time Richard doesn't respond. He looks at Bryce quizzically.I was thinking maybe I should hang onto it.
BRYCE
Just incase.
