Regarding today's quote -
Book One/Issue Three/Page 8 - Roger: 'I THINK YOU'LL
FIND MY SON AS MUCH A CHALLENGE AS YOU CAN HANDLE.
I'M QUITE CERTAIN DAVID IS DIFFERENT FROM ANY BOY
YOU'VE EVER TAUGHT.' - this is how it plays in the pilot's script -
A good reason why we don't see any indication from Roger that he might think there's more to Vicki than he expected is that right after Vicki's comment that the challenge to teaching art is allowing children to get to know themselves, Roger launches right into today's quote -
Page 23/Scene 39 - Roger: 'Well I think you'll find that my son is as much of a challenge as you can handle. I'm quite certain he's different from any boy you've ever taught before. Goodnight, Miss Winters.'
- and then the script ends the scene with:
Roger nods and exits. HOLD on Vicki as she watches him go, and...
|
But naturally things don't end quite like that. Roger actually says "Well I think you'll find my son as much a challenge as you can handle. I'm quite certain David is different from any boy you've ever taught" and ...
- and as you can see, with the exception of the introductory "Well", which was dropped in the comic, Roger's line in the comic is exactly the same as what he delivers in the pilot - and here is how this actually look as it plays in the pilot -
Page 23/Scene 39 - Roger: 'Well I think you'll find that my
son is as much of a challenge as you can handle. I'm quite
certain he's different from any boy you've ever taught before.
Goodnight, Miss Winters.' - and as for how the scene actually ends in the pilot and the comic, we'll see both tomorrow...
