Talk Show Host: Here with me tonight is Sandra Haas, the star of Snow, by Disney. How was the community backstage?
40Please respect copyright.PENANAkAnVcsJ48G
Sandra: Well, thank you. It was wonderful. Everyone was so kind, it was almost the best group I’ve been with.
40Please respect copyright.PENANAGLYbGjNK6R
Talk Show Host: So, we understand your family always supports you with all the traveling and they helped you get on your feet when you started acting. Do you think your career would be different without them?
40Please respect copyright.PENANAEvtmWpNCxd
Sandra: I think my career as an actor would be… bigger, I would have made it farther than I have now.
40Please respect copyright.PENANAPscYcIpBuS
Talk Show Host: Here to talk to us about it is Mrs. Haas.
(When Mom is announced, Mom sits in the empty chair. Sandra goes from laughing and happy, to walled off, emotionless. The interview goes into slow-motion, till Talk Show Host and Mom stand up. Sandra follows them off stage in a haze.)

Mom(in a sad voice): Hi honey.
40Please respect copyright.PENANAma77b28PAa
Sandra: Get out.
40Please respect copyright.PENANA49n2xCfL0H
Mom: We don’t have any money, honey. Please it's your family.
40Please respect copyright.PENANA3SmXXtwNxa
Sandra: If you had been there for me, when I started to act, or when I decided it was the career path I wanted to take, then I would give you all the money you’d like. But I had to go my whole career, my whole life, knowing you were never going to be there for me. Now, you come to ruin a perfectly fine interview just for money? No. I told you I want you out of my life. So don't come back. Why don't you ask your lawyer son for money? Isn't he your pride and joy?
40Please respect copyright.PENANAwdnSPKgpR2
Mom(avoiding eye contact): We need money for his funeral.

(Another scene change, this time to a living room. Sandra is sitting on a couch, next to her are Althea and Andy. Around the stage are the Funeral Guests. Everyone is wearing black.)
40Please respect copyright.PENANAiVO58fLEBZ
Althea: Hey, it's not your fault. You didn’t know. And there was nothing that could be done.
40Please respect copyright.PENANAN5tzZJj857
Andy: Do you want a finger sandwich? They're so good, they might just cheer you up.
(Sandra just stares at her feet. Mom enters, finds Sandra, and starts heading towards her, but Andy and Althea give her a death stare and she walks away.)
40Please respect copyright.PENANAgfe369k80v
Andy: What can we do?
40Please respect copyright.PENANADFBLc9D8yB
Sandra: I just need… time. (She stands up and walks off stage. Andy and Althea share a look.)
40Please respect copyright.PENANArBF3SNKvGe
(Final scene change. Sandra is on the rooftop. She stands on one foot, letting the other dangle off the roof, then switches feet. Brother, all in white, enters and is watching Sandra.)
40Please respect copyright.PENANA2PmtkX7CxP
Brother: Sandra! Why? What are you doing?
40Please respect copyright.PENANAKVR4HoGCrW
Sandra: You're dead. Your dead… your dead. You are just part of my imagination. Proof I'm insane. I’m just going to hurt someone, and it might as well be myself. I couldn’t bear my heart and head if it was someone I was close to. I hurt, didn’t
40Please respect copyright.PENANAMiHwl395D6
Brother: Sadie. No, and it’s me, trust me, it's not your time. Some people care about you. Please.
40Please respect copyright.PENANACqWnoE7WQI
Sandra: I (Brother walks off stage, passing Andy and Althea who look frantic.)
40Please respect copyright.PENANAamPQ3raqJd
Andy: Sandra! No, what are you doing?

Sandra(looks like she’s snapping out of a haze): I don't know. (Breaks down in tears.) I don’t know.
