We circle around the island of Manhattan moving closer and

closer till we're looking down on Fifth Avenue. As the

2    INT. THERAPIST'S OFFICE - DAY                              2



A fifty-year old female therapist (DR. GREENBAUM) sits at

her desk, frowning as she takes notes. Books of Jung and

Freud line the shelves.
A young man (SEBASTIAN VALMONT) sits in a chair in front

of her looking impatient.
The therapist continues to write notes.
