2a: Dividing Interests

The drive to west Hollywood passes without event. The two women spend the twenty minutes discussing their co-workers, the odd weather and the stress related to the overall situation on set. Amanda pulls the car onto Hollywood Boulevard near Jared's apartment building and begins the process of circling the block looking for an open. As luck would have it a spot opens up right in front of the director's building and Amanda expertly dives upon the opening.

The women walk into the apartment building. The lobby is lavishly furnished with a modern ascetic. Clean, simple and elegant in its simplicity. Decorative lighting is used to highlight architectural features of the wide open lobby and promote a sense of vastness to the space. Various large ferns and other potted plants break up the space making the building seem more alive.

Sitting at a security island, a Hispanic man with a kind face, sad eyes and salt and pepper hair sits up and addresses the women.

Good morning, can I help you?

The man’s face contorts slightly, Oh, I’m sorry señora… Mr Woodward said no one was to be allowed up. He was quite clear about it. He said no one should be allowed up until he comes back down, under no circumstances…

Hello Amanda. Julia responds. When asked about getting access to Jared’s apartment she says, Oh, I don’t know… Jared is always just so focused, I don’t know if that’s a good idea. Listen, how about this… I’m on my way to his apartment now to bring him some brunch. I’ll sit and talk with him and have him call you to talk through your concerns?
