Act Twenty - Lori's Lie

Breakfast. All seated and Lori serving…
Ian: (he’s mad and takes his seat late) Girls, there is a very important paper missing off of my desk tis morning… (angry) have any of you miss placed it?
Silence….
Lori: Oh – I accidently threw it away when I was cleaning your office last night. (Ian glares. *meaningful look between Evan and Lori and Issy gawking)
Ian: (stands up suddenly. Walks pass Lori and brushes her shoulder roughly.) Follow me. (They walk into their bedroom in silence.)
awkward silence…
Skyler: (being rigid before, slumps into her chair and shows lack of sleep)
Isabelle: What’s going on, Skyler?
Amelia: Yeah, you’re acting really unlike yourself.
Skyler: (opens mouth to speak)
Evangeline: (interrupts) Don’t answer them.
Skyler: They need to know.
Evangeline: You’re right, but not here, not now.
Skyler: Then when?
Evangeline: Tonight.
