A Night In Script Summary

Casper gets out of the shower at his house and wipes condensation from the mirror to stare at himself. He uses a pair of scissors to cut his hair and beard over the sink, then gets dressed. He checks several rooms around the house and then puts the kettle on to boil. Andres dusts around the house and removes several cardboard boxes, folding them before leaving them in the recycling. He straightens several picture frames and checks his phone before putting it down on a table and going to the kitchen to make food.

Outside, Ginevra and Maeve get out of a car.

GINEVRA: Non è che organizzarlo richiederebbe poi così tanto sforzo, se il signor Lund non se ne fosse già occupato comunque.[1]

Maeve waves as the car pulls away.

MAEVE: E se lo fosse, temo che la maggior parte ricadrà sulle tue spalle. Io potrei arrancare, ma tu potresti risparmiarmi l'imbarazzo.[2]

The two women walk up the sidewalk toward Casper's House.

MAEVE: Ti aspettavi che fossi dura invece?[3]

She chuckles.

MAEVE: È una persona molto gentile e mi piace molto, e sarò naturalmente gentile con lui. Che sono sicuro è tutto ciò che stavi suggerendo.[4]

They arrive at the door and Maeve rings the doorbell. Inside, Casper jumps.

MAEVE: Se potessi seguire un consiglio da me, forse dovresti rilassarti e cercare di divertirti da solo. Non è che ci sia un altro posto in cui dovremmo andare.[5]

CASPER: Jag - jag ska få det![6]

CASPER: Ms. Glaistig - ah, yes, right, sorry - Maeve, it's good to see you again!
