Addison

Kat? Are you there?

Please answer, sweetie.

Guys, something’s wrong. Katrina’s gone.

Jordan

Gone?

Addison

Gone.

Knox

she’s probably just pouting at her house

Addison

No, Harvey and I are there now. She’s not here.

Jordan

Are you sure she’s not just ignoring you?

Addison

Okay, I just talked to Ira. He’s sending Derrick over with her spare key.

Knox

just let her pout

Jordan

Knox, your sister is missing.

Knox

she’s not missing! Don’t be so dramatic

Addison

Then where is she, Knox?

Knox

Kat

Kat stop being a baby

Jonah

Gee, really making great strides with not talking down to her like a child.

Knox

STILL NOT TALKING TO YOU

Addison

Bronson, are you back at the hotel?

Bronson

yeah

Addison

Will you check with the front desk? See if they’ve seen her?

Bronson

Jordan

Anything yet, Addy?

Addison

Derrick just pulled in. I’ll let you know.

No.

Jordan

She’s not there?

Addison

No

Doesn’t look like she packed up or anything. Her car is in the garage.

Bronson

She hasn’t checked in. I asked Rian to tell Ira to call us if she does.

Jordan

Thanks, B.

Jonah

Where else would she go?

Knox

have you checked your bedroom?

Jonah

Thought you weren’t talking to me

Knox

IM NOT

Jordan

KNOX. JONAH. CEASEFIRE means you STOP BICKERING

Knox

Jonah

I literally didn’t

Knox

yes you did you started it when you TONGUED MY LITTLE SISTER

Jordan

ENOUGH! GUYS. The Battle of the Bands is in ten hours. We have a choice to make.

Knox

what choice?

Jordan

Over whether the show goes on. Or not.

Jonah

You mean cancel?

Addison

We can’t do that to Pam.

Bronson

We can’t go on without Katrina.

Knox

why not?

Jordan

Knox.

Bronson

Because it’s all of us. Or none of us. Always has been.

Jonah

Bronson’s right. We don’t do this without her.

Addison

Agreed.

Katrina please SAY SOMETHING!!!

Knox

I know her parts we don’t need her

Addison

Do you know when to step back during Slow Burn to cue me in at the end of second bridge?

Knox

She does that?

Addison

YES!

Jordan

I’ve drafted the press release. It’s up to you guys.

Addison

Hold on, Jordan.

KAT, COME ON.

Jonah

Katrina, answer us.

Addison

We love you. Please let us know you’re okay.

Knox

Kat stop whining

Jordan

KNOX

Knox

WHAT

Jordan

NOT HELPFUL

Addison

Guys, I think I know where she’d go.

Jordan

Where?

Addison

Jordan

Would she, tho?

Addison

I don’t know but I’m all out of ideas.

Jonah

Is he still at the hotel?

Jordan

One of us should go see.

Knox

I’ll go

Jordan

No!

Addison

No

Jonah

NO!

Bronson

Jordan

I don’t think that’s a good idea

Addison
