On the eve of her first film premiere, Claire steps out onto the red carpet and immediately stops for a reporter for a picture and a quick interview:

Reporter: Ms. Victorinne, how does it feel to have a turnout this massive for your first ever Directorial Production?

Claire: Honestly.... It still feels as if this is all a dream.

Reporter: I can imagine. Tell me... how did you come to reach this level of success? With your work history, it's no stranger that your vision comes from somewhere.

Claire: Well...it's funny you should say that...

( A beam of light flashes as we are transported back in time; Opening with a view of the South Boston Waterfront pier skyline at twilight we pan in close to see a young girl sitting by the dock with an empty stare and tears in her eyes overlooking the harbor )

Sam (a young teen boy comes running): Hey Ella, what are you doing over there?

( Our audience comes to realize, Claire... does not exist)
