    FADE IN:


1   INT. FLORIDA COURTROOM - DAY                                  1



Northern Florida in the midst of a heat wave. Air

conditioners fighting a losing battle. The gallery is

full. The JUDGE a stern, old hand. The PROSECUTOR, an

efficient man with a good case.
The witness is BARBARA. She is maybe 13. She is a

witness in a criminal trial. Her testimony has been

carefully rehearsed.
                             BARBARA

               ... we go back to our homeroom for

dismissal, unless you have a pass

for sports or something.
                             PROSECUTOR (O.S.)
