Transcript: SCENE TWO
Title and possibly establishing shot: Janet, with Tulla and the Cap’s mom on either side:
TULLA: Want a drink?
JANET: No.
OLD LADY: Want a valium?
JANET: No!

Janet processes the old lady. She sits on one side of a desk littered with empty and partially full bottles, typing up the report, the old lady is sitting on the other.
JANET: Name?
OLD LADY: I’m the captain’s mother. Ask him.
JANET: Occupation other than drug dealer?
OLD LADY: I prefer the term “street pharmacist”.

Janet’s computer dies, maybe even emits some smoke. Madge and Tulla are visible in the background.
JANET: (to herself) Dammit. (to the squad) I need someone’s computer.
TULLA: They’re in use. Do it the old fashioned way.
MADGE: Report forms and pens are in the bottom right drawer.

Janet opens the bottom right drawer. Blinding bright light glows from within. Madge hollers from off panel.
MADGE: My right, your left! Sorry!

Janet sits back up. Cap finally shows up, stands behind and to the side of Janet.
JANET: What was that?
CAP: Detective Tulla’s Omega drawer. I see you’ve met my mother.
OLD LADY: Hello, dear. I’ll be out in time for bridge club, right?
