OUTSIDE PARK - PRESENT DAY


    Higgs is across the street from the cafe that he just recently left. He squints and touches the side of his head in discomfort.


    VOICE (OS)


    Who are you?


    HIGGS


    Ah, not you again. Bug off.


    You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.


    VOICE


    Again? Have we communicated before?


    HIGGS


    Ya, ya, you found me again with your stupid helmet. I told you to leave me alone. There''s no point.


    VOICE


    Why can''t I remember you?


    HIGGS


    You''re not the only one.


    There is a short pause as Higgs looks into the distance, helpless.


    VOICE


    My name is Charles. I run a school for the gifted in Westchester. Find me after I forget you.


    Higgs shakes his head and lets out a sigh.


    HIGGS


    Ya sure mister. And what would you like me to say to you when I find you, and you look at me like "who the hell are you"?


    VOICE


    Approach me exactly at 10AM. I have set a telepathic alarm reminding me of your existence.
