INT. HOME - DAY A MOTHER is getting ready to leave the house. Her TODDLER is sitting in his playpen. MOTHER (Warmly) I’ll just be gone for a few minutes, buddy! TODDLER (Pleased, without understanding) Gah! The door slams and a nosy NEIGHBOR appears immediately outside the window. Seeing the unattended TODDLER, the NEIGHBOR gasps, and calls 911. NEIGHBOR Hello? Yes, a woman has just left her baby unattended! Two police officers appear. OFFICER #1 arrests the NEIGHBOR. The MOTHER, returned, holds the TODDLER as both watch the NEIGHBOR’s arrest. Before getting into the cruiser, the NEIGHBOR turns to OFFICER #2. NEIGHBOR (Weeping) But...why? OFFICER #2 (With visible lack of sympathy) You’ve caused more trouble today than you could statistically have prevented.
