TRAILER FOR EPISODE 1.04 MELTING POT
VOICE: NEXT ON RAIN…
INT. MICHAEL’S HAVEN- MORNING
RAIN is polishing glasses at the bar just as MICHAEL approaches her.
MICHAEL: I host a Thanksgiving dinner here at the restaurant every year for the staff. It’s a like a family thing. (Pauses) I thought you’d like to join us.
RAIN: A family dinner… with the staff?
NICK: (VO) So you’re going?
VOICE: IT’S SUPPOSE TO BE A TIME OF CELEBRATION…
INT. AUTUMN SUN MOTEL- MORNING
RAIN: (VO) I went to that motel this morning. (Beat) The one… that Gloria and Tanner stayed at years ago when I was… kidnapped or whatever.
RAIN shows the motel manager a newspaper clipping from The Haven Herald pertaining to GLORIA DUBOIS’ murder that also has a head shot of her in her twenties next to the article.
RAIN: (in a serious tone) I need information.
We see the manager talking to RAIN who has a stunned look on her face.
BELLA: (VO) Did you learn anything?
RAIN: (VO) I thought… I wanted to know what happened, how I came to be here but now… I’m not so sure.
VOICE: WHERE EVERYONE IS WELCOMED…
INT. MICHAEL’S HAVEN- AFTERNOON
MICHAEL: (at the bar, to RAIN) This is Eleni.
ELENI seems to be studying RAIN, in fact a bit too long. RAIN doesn’t know what to make of it.
CUT TO:
INT. MICHAEL’S OFFICE- AFTERNOON
RAIN and MICHAEL are in his office.
MICHAEL: I was wondering if you’d be all right with Eleni staying with you until she can sort her life out.
RAIN just stares at him. She was looking forward to the peace and quiet, a chance to really be alone.
MADELINE: (VO) Who is she?
RAIN: (VO) Just a damsel in distress Michael wanted me to help out.
VOICE: AND FAMILIES ARE REUNITED…
A self-confident WOMAN in a sleek ‘Ann Taylor’ suit walks in Michael’s Haven. His falls as he recognizes her. The WOMAN appears to be out of place in this causal setting as she holds on to her umbrella and leather purse.
WOMAN: (smiles) Michael.
MICHAEL: (trying to find the words to speak) Devon… what are you doing here?
CUT TO:
INT. MICHAEL’S HAVEN- EVENING
ELENI: (VO) My younger sister died… at the hands of a vampire. (Beat) It… was my father.
A MAN enters the restaurant. MICHAEL, RAIN, NICK and ELENI look up. ELENI seems to recognize the MAN.
MAN: My daughter is going home with me.
RAIN gets up and pulls out her stake out of her jacket. The MAN’S faces changes, revealing just like ELENI said he was, a vampire. MICHAEL’S posture stiffens.
RAIN: I don’t think so. (Moves in front her) She’s staying right here.
VOICE: BUT THE PAINFUL MEMORIES…
FLASHBACK- NOVEMBER 1996-
EXT. GLORIA’S HOUSE- EVENING
GLORIA: (VO) You walk out the door don’t even bother coming back!
A beaten up TANNER slams the door and runs down the porch steps where a ten year old RAIN is leaning against his car crying.
TANNER: (pulls her close) Rain, please… don’t cry.
RAIN: (wraps her arms around him; sobbing) Take me with you!
VOICE: HAVE A WAY OF COMING OUT…
EXT. RAIN’S BEDROOM – EARLY MORNING
RAIN is restless under the covers from the endless nightmares of the GLASTNOFT DEMON she fought a week ago.
MICHAEL: (VO) Rain? Are you all right?
RAIN: (VO) Umm… yeah… I’m fine.
CUT TO:
INT. MICHAEL’S HAVEN- MORNING
At the bar RAIN looks out the window and observes a family of four walking past the restaurant, smiling and laughing, not caring they were getting wet. She sighs, continuing to polish the glasses.
CUT TO:
INT. MICHAEL’S HAVEN- EVENING
ELENI’S FATHER is standing before ELENI, RAIN and her friends.
ELENI'S FATHER: (bares his teeth) You had to meddle with family affairs.
RAIN: I don’t condone domestic violence.
VOICE: AND YOU’RE JUST NOT IN THE PARTYING MOOD.
VOICE: NEXT ON RAIN…
