CLOSE TO HOME EPISODE ONE HUNDRED NINETY THREE OAD: MONDAY JULY 1, 2013 CREATED BY: ALICIA SORRENTINO WRITTEN BY: ALICIA SORRENTINO DIRECTED BY: WILLIAM LUDEL RATED: TV-14 DLSV SCENE ONE: GORDON BAY COURTHOUSE The trial has just come back from recess. Everyone has filled back into the courtroom, Hillary and Steve go over to their table, as do Heather and Quinn. Evan stands in the middle of the two as the judge takes her seat, everyone sits. JUDGE Evan Bentley will you please approach the bench? Evan gets up and walks over to the bench; he takes a seat and looks over at the judge. JUDGE Mister Bentley, have you reached a decision on who will be taking over you legal guardianship? EVAN Yes… your honor, I have. JUDGE Now, Mister Bentley, need I remind you that whomever you chose will be in charge of your guardianship until you turn eighteen in two thousand fourteen? EVAN Yes your honor. JUDGE Now go ahead and tell everyone who you have decided to go with for your guardianship. Evan takes a few seconds and looks down before he looks back up and begins to speak. EVAN Your honor, I choose…. Hillary and Steve Zimmer to be my legal guardians. Heather can do nothing but put her head down. Quinn places his hands around her shoulders as Hillary and Steve hug. JUDGE Court is now adjourned. The judge hit’s the gavel three times. SCENE TWO: ZIMMER APARTMENT: MONDAY MORNING Hillary is in the kitchen, she is cooking something on the stove. From the second bedroom walks Evan who has just woken up. He takes a seat at the bar and pours himself some orange juice. Hillary turns around and smiles at Evan. HILLARY Good morning sweetheart. EVAN Morning… mom… HILLARY Look, I know it’s a bit of an adjustment but you don’t have to call me mom. You can still call me Hillary, if it makes you more comfortable. Evan takes a drink, he wonders for a few seconds before he starts to talk again. EVAN No, mom, you are my actual mother. You fought for me on more than one occasion and I think that nothing can take that away from you. I know that it’s going to be an adjustment but I can easily call you mom, just like I do to well… Heather. Hillary strokes her hair out of her face before she sits down across the bar from Evan. She takes his hand and smiles. HILLARY Look, I know it’s hard but Heather… well, Heather will always be your mother. She raised you for years and I guess you were a repressed memory for me. You know that, and I guess in some twisted way if it wasn’t for Carmen leaving me in a burning building I never would have had my memories with you brought to the forefront. You don’t know how happy I am that it did though. Evan, I love you. Evan smiles. EVAN Mom, I love you too. You are doing so much for me and I guess you’re going to make for an awesome senior year for me. HILLARY You’re right about that, but you still quite a bit of summer left so don’t even think about that. EVAN It’s kind of hard when the girl you want to spend your summer with is stuck in summer school because of reasons she can’t control. HILLARY Don’t worry about it, you and Bianca are going to find ways around it. Both you and her have some pretty cool guardians if I do say so myself. Evan and Hillary laugh. EVAN Yeah, we do. Umm, you might want to check on those pancakes. Hillary turns around and sees her pancakes burning. HILLARY Damn it!!! Hillary heads over to the stove and messes with the pancakes. HILLARY Well give me fifteen minutes and I’ll have a fresh batch for you… EVAN I would, but I have to go and meet Bianca, I made a promise. Evan finishes off his orange juice and gets up from the bar. HILLARY Wait, what about breakfast? EVAN I can grab something at the coffee house! Evan leaves as Hillary looks down at her pancakes and smiles. SCENE THREE: THE JOINT: MORNING Angelique is behind the bar with a clipboard and pen in hand. She is taken inventory, the door opens and Steve walks in. Angelique walks around and greets Steve. ANGELIQUE Steve, I wasn’t expecting you to come in so soon. I would have thought that you would have still been in court. STEVE Great thing is we only stayed one day. The judge let Evan decide, and he decided on me and Hillary. ANGELIQUE Congratulations! I am so happy for you two. I know that you are going to be the best parents you can be to a seventeen year old. STEVE Well, that seventeen year old is Hillary’s biological child. She has been waiting to have a chance to be able to do something in his life for a long time so I’m happy for her. ANGELIQUE Don’t get me wrong, so am I, but he’s seventeen. In some states he is considered an adult in the court of law. STEVE Well Hillary is a lawyer so if she thought she had a shot, she took it. ANGELIQUE That’s also true, either way I’m happy for you two. Now, what are you thinking about for our opening? STEVE I’m actually pretty excited, Independence Day cannot come soon enough. ANGELIQUE Well, I don’t mean to be disrespectful, but are you two actually going to be coming and helping me. STEVE Look, the court battle is over and we wouldn’t be missing this for the world. ANGELIQUE Okay, I am just making sure. STEVE Now, I have to go and handle some things in my office, continue going through inventory. Steve walks to the back, Angelique rolls her eyes and continues working. SCENE FOUR: GORDON BAY HOSPITAL: MIDDAY The role of George Heenan is now being played by Grant Aleksander George is outside of April’s room. He is on his phone texting when the elevator doors open. Aries walks out and goes over to George. ARIES George, I wasn’t expecting to see you. GEORGE I just finished visiting April. ARIES I probably shouldn’t ask, but were there any changes? GEORGE Sorry, April hasn’t had movement in four months; the doctors don’t think that she has any chance of moving anytime soon. Not like the doctors in Gordon Bay really know what they’re doing but whatever. ARIES Well, not like she has anymore options. We want her close to us just in case something happens and I think she is close to breakthrough. GEORGE Aries, I’m sorry, but I have to tell you this. I want you to think about it, I want to send April to Cedars Sinai in Los Angeles. Aries stares daggers into George. ARIES You cannot be serious about that. George, April would never want to leave Gordon Bay. GEORGE I understand that but Cedars has some of the best doctors in the state of California. I want my daughter to have the best possible care and she isn’t getting it here. ARIES George, it takes time. I realize that, I would have expected you too also. GEORGE Four months is enough Aries. Look, I’ll give them until Friday… if there is no change in April’s condition she is going to Cedars. Have a good day. George walks away and Aries shakes his head in disappointment. SCENE FIVE: KRISTA AND TANNER’S APARTMENT Krista is at the counter with her laptop. Tanner comes out from the shower with a towel wrapped around his waist. KRISTA Umm sweetheart, I think that you forgot your clothes. TANNER No, I didn’t… I’m actually not even done with my shower… I just wanted for you to join me. KRISTA As much as I want to join you… I can’t I’m working on something important right now. Tanner walks over to Krista and looks over her shoulder. TANNER I hope you don’t mind me asking but what in the hell is Pressure? KRISTA It’s my plan… business plan. TANNER What kind of business are we talking about? KRISTA A magazine. TANNER You want to write for a magazine? KRISTA Well I do have an English degree that I’m totally not using. TANNER Well, let’s worry about that another day… I want you… Tanner leans over and kisses Krista’s neck. She smiles as she closes her computer and gets up from the chair. She takes his hand and follows him into the bathroom. SCENE SIX: THE GORDON BAY HERALD Heather is at her desk. Everyone else has gone home for the day except her. She is typing away at her computer, the door opens and Quinn walks in. He goes over to Heather and looks at her with a smile. QUINN You know, you can’t burry yourself in work forever. HEATHER Quinn, I work in the journalism industry, there is always work that needs to be done. I have nothing better to do so I think I’ll be spending a lot of time here. QUINN I miss having you home for longer than a cup of coffee and a shower. Heather, I know it’s going to be hard but we will get through it. HEATHER I miss my son. I want him home with me, not with the bitch who gave him up in the first place. QUINN I know it’s hard but ultimately it was his decision. You need to remember that he is old enough that he can decide to come and see you at anytime. It’s not like Hillary lives a thousand miles away. Evan will eventually come to see you. HEATHER How can you be so sure? QUINN Because I know he loves you, just like you love him… now come on I think you need a nice long bubble bath and a glass of wine. HEATHER I’d really like that. QUINN Well then come on… we’re going to be alright. Heather gets up and leaves with Quinn. SCENE SEVEN: GORDON BAY HOSPITAL Aries is in the room looking down at April. ARIES I can’t let him do it to you. April, I love you too much to let your father take you away from here… Aries sits down in the stool next to the bed and grabs his wives left hand. ARIES Baby, you need to wake up. I don’t want your father taking you away. This is where your family is, this is where I want to raise my family. I want you and me to have kids one day. I … just need you to wake up so we can start our lives over again. Bianca just came home…. She’ll come see you tomorrow. Good night, my sweet love. Aries gets up and kisses April on the forehead and leaves out the room. SCENE EIGHT: AIRPLANE A iPad can be seen in someone’s hands. A newspaper is pulled up on the tablet with the headline reading “Heenan Stock Rises, Primetime for Investment” the tablet turns off. The camera moves to the man’s right hand and shows a wedding ring as the scene fades out. |

April is going to wake up, just in the nic of time. She isn't going to be happy that her father wanted to move her to LA though. I'm very intrigued by the mystery person! Great episode! |

It seems the 4th of July is coming up in Gordon Bay and I see April waking up by the 4th or even waking up on the actual 4th of July waking up from her coma and when she wakes up it is possible she might not even remember Aries at all or remember anything else for that matter considering the trauma she went through and considering how long she's been unconscious. I think it is possible she wakes up with amnesia not remembering Aries at all because all her memories will be gone and she will then have to start her life over again from scratch but seeing Aries and George clash over her medical care was great seeing as how George is her father but Aries is her husband, did April have a power of attorney or does she even have one? As for the mystery person, I too am intrigued by just who he is considering it's a man and he's looking at the stock of Heenan, something tells me that he seems to be interested in Heenan Enterprises and if he is then I wonder if he is either going to invest in it or if he is planning a hostile takeover of George's company? So Evan is 17 that means he is almost 18 and you know what that means, that means next year he's off to college which means Hillary should treasure this year that she has left with her son because he's a senior now in high-school and then after that he's going to be gone which means she's going to have an empty nest so I wonder if her and Steve are going to be thinking about having a baby soon? Evan calling Hillary "Mom" now, I never thought I'd see the day but it seems he and his biological mother are growing even more closer now than they ever did before but for Quinn and Heather I wonder what they're going to do now since they lost custody |
