INT. HOSPITAL - DAY

CU: on a paintbrush painting on a mural. CREDITS ROLL over shots of the paintbrush painting the mural.

PULL OUT: to reveal what is being painted.

MS: A PAINTER is painting a MURAL of a garden well-tended by doctors, nurses, and orderlies. The garden looks perfect; everything is neat and clean.

(PAINTER V.O.) Everything is perfectly swell. There are no prisons, no slums, no insane asylums, no cripples, no poverty, no wars. All diseases have been conquered and at sixty-five I have the appearance of a thirty-five year old man. The average age is 126. Death comes only to adventurers, volunteers and the unlucky.

I have painted lies like this my whole life. Painting a world that doesn't exist, a world that hasn't existed in hundreds of years, a world that will never exist again, never see its own faults, or answer for its crimes. I have thought about suicide. One call, and in a few hours someone else could take my place in this empty world. Easier said than done right?

INT. WAITING ROOM - DAY

WS: a waiting room, Everything is pushed against the wall except for some chairs, and drop cloths litter the floor. EDWARD K. WEHLING, JR. is sitting in the corner of the room with his head buried in his hands.

LEADING MS: LEORA DUNCAN enters the waiting room singing a song.

LEORA DUNCAN If you don't like my kisses, honey, Here's what I will do: I'll go see a girl in purple, Kiss this sad

LEORA DUNCAN (cont'd) world toodle-oo. If you don't want my lovin', Why should I take up all this space? I'll get off this old planet, Let some sweet baby have my place.

CU:LEORA DUNCAN is fascinated by the painting.

LEORA DUNCAN It looks so real, I can practically imagine myself standing in the middle of it.

PAINTER It's called The Happy Garden of Life.What makes you think you aren't in it?

2S: LEORA and the PAINTER share a moment of silence. The PAINTER continues painting and LEORA watches.

LEORA DUNCAN It must be nice being able to paint pictures that actually look like something.

The painter grimaces at LEORA DUNCAN's remark, and paints more furiously.

PAINTER You think I'm proud of this daub? You think this is my idea of what life looks like?

LEORA withdraws from the PAINTER'S hostility.

EDWARD K. WEHLING, JR. nods in agreement with the PAINTER's sentiment.

LEORA DUNCAN What's your idea of what life really looks like then?

The PAINTER motions to an old, smudged, and stained drop-cloth lying on the floor with his paintbrush.

PAINTER There's a good picture of it; frame that and you'll have a picture a damn sight more honest than this one.

Once again, EDWARD nods in agreement with the painter.
