CUT TO TITLE

Days later, Molly lies in bed at night, snoring softly. Suddenly she hears something and stirs, her eyes snapping open. She listenscuriously for a moment. She hears something that sounds like digging coming from the yard outside her window.

As she listens, the digging stops and she then hears the sound of her front door opening and closing. Wanting to know what's goingon, Molly hops out of bed and goes to her door. Just as she goes to her door, Ken happens to be walking down the hall. They seeeach other and Ken stops, looking like a deer in the headlights. His shirt is covered in dirt and he carries a shovel. When Molly askshim about it, he claims he was doing some late-night gardening.

Weeks later, Molly overhears Ken talking to a man from an insurance company, Ken telling the man that his wife is probably dead.Hearing this, Molly looks terrified and stricken. She slumps against the wall, unable to process what she's heard. Off-screen we hearKen and the man exchange pleasantries as they finish up their conversation and Ken shows him out.
