is
much different. To bear soul - and body - is a very vulnerable thing to do,”
Dorothy encourages.
    Katrina changes the subject.   “We should get you to your doctor's
appointment.”
    “You're evading the subject, Kat.”
    “Yes I am.   It was getting out of my comfort zone.”
    “Until you learn to get yourself out of
your comfort zone you may never find love, and you have too many extraordinary
gifts not to find love,” Dorothy tells her friend with heartfelt meaning.
    Katrina puts her arm around Dorothy.   “You're the love of my life, you know
that.”
    Dorothy and Katrina leave the store.   As they walk across the threshold, and
unbeknownst to the two women, a small bug flies into the store.
    Katrina places a Closed sign in the door
window and locks the door.   She and
Dorothy proceed down the sidewalk.   They do not notice the tinted windowed SUV parked across the street.
    Inside the bookstore…
    The bug flies around the store.   It's a mechanical bug - a state of the
art surveillance gadget.
    Inside the SUV…
    Walter sits in the passenger seat.   There are two agents in the vehicle,
one sits in the driver's seat.   Walter works a control device and laptop; he's controlling the bug's
flying and watches on the computer screen what the bug is seeing.
    Inside the bookstore…
    The bug flies around and lands on the
edge of the top of a bookshelf.

    A pick-up game is in progress on an urban
neighborhood basketball court. A dozen guys, aged twenty to forty, are kicking
butt on the court.   Sully is one of
the guys.   He's putting a ton of
energy and intensity into his game as if he were trying to physically remove
his inner demons.   He slam dunks a
shot which wins the game for his team.
    The guys back slap each other as they
head off the court.   Sully grabs a
towel and wipes his face then takes a swig of water.   His buddy Tanner joins him.
    “Man, you were on fire today!” Tanner
enthuses.
    “Needed to let off some steam.”
    “I guess. Work shit?”
    “Yeah. Hey, if you wanted to woo a lady
on a first date, make it romantic and memorable, what would you do?”   Sully asks.
    “You actually met a lady ?" Tanner can’t believe it.
    “Through work.”
    “One you care about impressing?” Tanner
still can’t believe it.
    “It's imperative.”
    “On my first date with Ginnie, I took her
to this seafood restaurant on the coast, The Shell Shack it's called, loads of
casual beach front charm yet they have one hell of a wine list. Then we
strolled over to the small town amusement park where I won her a teddy bear and
we snuggled on the ferris wheel. We finished off the night drinking tequila and
dancing at the nearby Cantina. Thanks to the mussels, teddy bear and tequila,
she was more than ripe and we screwed all night long. We recreate our first
date every year on our anniversary. Although after fourteen years and two kids,
the sex doesn't last all night long anymore,” Tanner shares.
    “Thanks, Tanner,” Sully walks away.   As he approaches his car, he gets a
call from Richard.   Sully takes the
call.   “Yeah?”
    “I've emailed you copies of the cyber
chats Katrina has had with Paolo as well as the email we sent her this
afternoon from Paolo. Use the information to lead her to the conclusion that
you are Paolo. Got it?”   Richard
commands through the phone.
    “Got it,” Sully replies.
    “Good. Bone up, book boy,” Richard ends
the call.

    In the Chick Lit Bookstore, Dorothy and
Katrina sit in the cozy chairs by the front window drinking herbal tea.
    Sully enters.   He's showered and shaven, dressed casual sexy, wearing a
leather jacket and holding a lovely plant in an Italian terra-cotta pot.
“Hello,” Sully says, a bit nervously.
    Both Dorothy and Katrina look surprised
to see him.   “Hello,” Katrina
replies.
    Sully approaches Dorothy.   “I remember you from yesterday,” he
says to her.   Sully extends his
hand to her.   “I'm
