Revisiting how Scene 175 is scripted:
Moving through the next three scenes as scripted:
DISSOLVE TO:
175 EXT - COTTAGE - NIGHT - WIDE ANGLE 175
It is later now. The house is in darkness. The
jeep is no longer there. HOLD FOR A MOMENT, then
start a VERY SLOW ZOOM IN.
...
...
And as far as the differences in the descriptions and directions go:
It's interesting that for Scene 175 there's a reference to a jeep (presumably actually Gerard's truck) no longer being there when DC actually had to add to his script that Gerard was watching Claire and Alex in Scene 173. Apparently Gerard watching must have been a part of the script but was accidentally left out somewhere along the way.
...
...
And it must have been left out at least as early as the March 10th version of the script because DC's added reference to Gerard watching doesn't appear in Grayson's copy of the script either...
