walter opens the door to his apartment, carrying a grocery bag. as he flips on the lights, a metal object is thrown across the room. he catches it with one hand. it's a can of beer. a man laughs. walter sits alone on his couch, watching a baseball game, drinking a beer. vicki paces around the apartment. walter sits on the couch writing in his journal. the tv is on, a baseball game in progress, sound on low. abruptly, walter throws the journal across the room. then he lies back and stares at the ceiling. carlos enters the apartment and sets a table down in the middle of the room. walter looks at it. walter sits at his window, writing in his journal, fast. walter stands in the living room. he looks down at the floor where the journal was and sees that nothing is there. he goes to his windows and lowers the blinds.
