inside the car mitchell stephens, a man in his mid-fifties, listens to a stirring piece of music. the sound of the car wash is filtered out by the strains of music. mitchell stephens is going through the wash. the automatic mops and buffers embrace his car with water and suds. the cellular phone in the car rings. mitchell picks it up. mitchell in his car, playing with the volume on his radio. mitchell is emotionally stunned by zoe's voice. she is heard over the phone. time cut back to mitchell honking the horn of his car, trying to get someone's attention. no response. mitchell picks up his cell phone, and dials the operator. mitchell walks into the office of the car wash. no one is there. there is an ominous buzz coming from another room.
