Regarding today's quotes -
Book One/Issue Three/Page 7 - Liz: 'OH, ABOUT SIX YEARS.
I BROUGHT HIM BACK FROM ENGLAND, WHERE HIS MOTHER,
LAURA, IS BEING CARED FOR. IT'S BEEN VERY HARD ON HIM.
BUT HE'S A BRIGHT BOY. AND HE HAS AN AMAZING
IMAGINATION.' - and -
Book One/Issue Three/Page 7 - Carolyn's voice: 'MMM...IF
YOU CALL PUTTING GARDEN SNAKES IN MY DRESSER
"IMAGINATION."' - this is how today's first quote plays in the pilot's script and in the pilot -
- followed by today's second quote -
Page 21/Scene 39 - Liz: 'Almost six years, now. I brought him back from England shortly after his mother... took ill. [Vicki subtly shakes her head, digesting the situation.] LIZ (CONT'D) - 'It's been hard on him. But he's a very bright boy and he has an amazing imagination.'
And the only differences here are that Liz actually says "Oh, it's been about six years, now. I brought him back from England when his mother took ill." And then she continues with "It's been very hard on him. But he's a bright boy and has an amazing imagination."
- and as you can see, the comic uses a combination of the way it's written in the script and they way it's delivered in the pilot - and here's how today's second quote plays in the pilot's script and in the pilot -
Picking up where we left off with Scene 39:
After Liz mentions David's "amazing imagination," Tuesday's quote -
Page 21/Scene 39 - Carolyn: 'If you call putting garden snakes in my dresser imaginative.'
- comes up.
...
And the differences in this section are that Carolyn actually says "Mmm - if you can call putting garden snakes in my dresser imaginative" -
- and as you can see the comic takes the added "Mmm" from the pilot but also changes "imaginative" to "imagination" - and here's how both portions of the scene actually look as they play in the pilot -
Page 21/Scene 39 - Liz: 'Almost six years, now. I brought him
back from England shortly after his mother... took ill. [Vicki
subtly shakes her head, digesting the situation.] LIZ (CONT'D)

an amazing imagination.' - and -
