Quite the unique twist here: a water allergy as the key factor deciding a character's fate.

Thanks, Marcel Jr.! I was looking for a fresh angle for a script and realized that I haven't seen a movie where the main character was allergic to water to this degree. I'm thinking about turning this into a feature script.

Darn it, when we thought the pool would be safe. We have to see if she makes it!!!
Thanks, Ron Reid! The pool's not safe for Adria. Drinking water/etc. without a straw, sweating, etc. aren't safe for her either.

Thanks for welcoming me. Adore the simplicity and constant potential for suspense in adolescence lived out loud. Impulsive and unpredictable, yet desperate for the comfort of knowing their parents are close enough to comfort and then restore calm. Spot on Maurice. Enjoy your contributions very much BTW. :)
You're welcome, @Adelaide. Thank you! I really appreciate your comment! I'm thinking about turning this short script into a feature script. We'll see. Hope you have success on Stage 32!
