[Booth, Parker, and Hannah sit in uncomfortable silence on the park bench. Parker is bouncing a basketball on the spot.]
Booth:
Okay, oh! [He grabs the basketball away from Parker] So, uh, hey Hannah here was in a real, live camel race. Why don't you tell him all about it.
Hannah:
I almost won but the camel stopped right before the finish line. He decided to take a nap. Right there. On the racetrack.
Booth:
That's funny, isn't it?
Parker:
Can I go shoot some baskets? [He takes the ball back from Booth]
Booth:
No, you can't shoot some baskets right now. Listen, hey, tell her about your science fair at school. He came in second.
Parker:
Do I have to?
Booth:
Yeah, tell her about the volcano you made. It was so cool! We built that...
Hannah:
[Interrupts] Seeley, can I talk to you for a sec?
Booth:
Yeah.
[Hannah and Booth take a few steps away.]
Hannah:
[Sighs] This isn't working.
Booth:
All right, just give him a minute. He just needs time to warm-up.
Hannah:
Give me a few minutes. Alone. Look, I'm taking your advice. He's just a short guy who can't drink.
Booth:
Look, I didn't want this…
Hannah:
I'm a journalist. I've cracked tougher nuts than Parker.
Booth:
Right.
Hannah:
'Kay?
[The two of them walk back to Parker.)
Booth:
All right, tell you what, I gotta go get my phone from the car, okay? Stay here with Hannah.
[Hannah sits down and Parker immediately scoots further away from her.]
Hannah:
You don't know who I am so you don't trust me. Maybe you hate me a little. Or even a lot. I might be trying to steal your dad. Wouldn't it be better if you knew for sure what was going on? So you have a real reason to hate me? So, here I am. Just ask me anything you want, anything at all.
Parker:
[After a pause] Were you really on a camel?
Hannah:
Yes.
Parker:
Do you sleep with my dad?
Hannah:
Yes.
Parker:
If you got married, what would I have to call you?
Hannah:
Hannah. That’s my name.
Parker:
Would you have kids?
Hannah:
No. There are children already in this world who need good homes. If I decided to have a child, I'd adopt one of those kids.
Parker:
That's a good answer.
Hannah:
I thought so, too.
Parker:
Do you like dogs or cats?
Hannah:
Dogs.
Parker:
Burgers or hot dogs?
Hannah:
Both.
Parker:
What's your favorite ice cream?
Hannah:
Chocolate.
Parker:
I like strawberry. Do you have any questions for me?
Hannah:
What's your middle name?
Parker:
Matthew.
Hannah:
Would you ever want to ride a camel?
Parker:
Sure. I'm a kid.
Hannah:
What's your favorite TV show?
Parker:
Wizards of Waverly Place. When the dad married the mom, he had to give up his magical powers. I would never give up my magical powers for a girl.
Hannah:
I don't blame you. [She moves a little closer to Parker and this time, he doesn’t move away] Why didn’t you win first place in your science fair?
Parker:
'Cause Ben Bradley cheated and his dad did his entire project for him. They used a potato to turn on a light bulb.
Hannah:
Creep.
Parker:
Totally.
Hannah:
[About the basketball] Can I see that? [Parker tosses it to her] How do I do that… spinny thing? '[[She attempts to twirl the ball on her finger]
Parker:
Wait, no.
Hannah:
Aw. How's that?
Parker:
You have to spin it faster.
[Parker shows Hannah and Booth smiles as he watches from afar.]
