Chapter 35: Jack's Big Break

Silvio was safe and my mother was once again deep underground. It was past time that Virginia and I returned to the estate. It was nice to be home. In fact, you might say, everything was perfect.

June: A good book, Mrs. Talbot's chocolate chip cookies, and a fresh pot of coffee. It doesn't get any better than this.

Virginia: You can't fool me, Aunt June. You're restless.

June: Restless? I'm bored out of my wits! The mail came. Maybe someone's invited us to a party.

June: Oh, a letter from Bobby. He included a picture of the baby!

Virginia: She's adorable. What's her name?

June: Ana Marie. After Franny's grandmother.

Virginia: There's a party at the Hamiltons' tonight.

June: Ugh. All they talk about are holidays and politics. Oh, look. Here's something from Jack.

June: Jack sent us a postcard from Hollywood. He writes, "My script got picked up by a director! I'm making a movie!" He's inviting us to come out for a few days and watch the filming.

Virginia: Sounds amazing. Let's go!

...

Virginia: June, was that Gloria Swanson who just walked by? That must be the third movie star we've seen today!

June: It seems Jack is doing really well for himself. He said he'd meet us at Studio B. Do you see it anywhere?

Jack: Juney, Virginia! My two favorite gals. Welcome to Hollywood!

June: Jack, I'm so proud of you. How did this all come about?

Jack: Well, after we were in New Orleans, I had this burst of inspiration. And a buddy in L.A. said he could introduce me to a director. I sent him the script, and here we are!

June: What's your movie about, Jack?

Jack: Oh, you're going to love it. I based it on you, you know. A female detective goes to New Orleans to clear a jazz musician's name. There's a murder, passion, adventure, and a big finale at a Mexican fortress!

June: That does sound familiar.

Jack: I have an extra script here if you want to read it.

June: "The Lady Detective." I like the sound of that.

Jack: I'm glad you like it. Hey, so how about I give you the grand tour?

Virginia: Yes, please! I can't wait to see the set.

...

Jack: I can't wait for you see the set. It's amazing what they can do these days. Would you believe this is the same set they used to film the bar scene in The Cowboy?

Virginia: I don't believe it. It looks completely transformed.

Jack: It's all about the props and set dressing. Same bar, different look.

June: Is this the policeman's prop pistol?

Jack: Oh no. That belongs to the lady detective herself.

June: Really?

Jack: Yeah, it adds to the excitement. Everyone loves a good shoot-out.

Dexter: Where's Louise? We're supposed to be shooting the bar scene in five! How am I supposed to shoot a movie if my leading lady can't show up on time!

June: Is there some way I can help?

Dexter: Who the hell are you? Never mind. Take this hat to Louise's dressing room.

The hat was a perfect replica of my own. Jack clearly took inspiration from real life.

Virginia: Was that the director? He seemed really high-strung.

June: I imagine directing a movie can be stressful. Let's find the dressing rooms. I'm curious to meet the "lady detective."

...

Virginia: Exploring backstage on a film set. Isn't this exciting?

June: I know. It feels a little like sneaking around, doesn't it?

Virginia: Wait. There's someone up ahead.

Virginia was right. I could hear two voices coming from the wings. Whatever they were discussing, it sounded heated.

Charlie: I'm telling you, someone is going to get hurt. Someone's going to get killed! And when that happens, the blood will be on your hands!

Milton: Get off my set, Charlie Miller. Before I have you arrested for sabotage, or worse!

June: Hmm. I wonder what that was about.

Virginia: The dressing rooms are over here.

June: Great. The leading lady's name is Louise Davis. Do you see her name anywhere?

June: Ah, here's Louise's dressing room. I suppose it's polite to knock. She's not answering.

Virginia: The door's unlocked. Should we just go in?

...

Virginia: Louise isn't in her dressing room. I wonder where she went?

June: For all we know, she's buried under all the mess.

June: Hmm. That's a lot of empty bottles.

Virginia: Maybe Louise is in bed with a headache.

June: I suppose her drinking and her absence could be related.

Virginia: So what should we do? Keep looking? Go back to the director?

June: Hold on a moment. The lights were on when we came in. Louise must have been here recently. There may be something we've missed.

June: Aha! A back door.

Virginia: That would explain why we didn't see Louise on the way here.

June; I wonder where she snuck off to...
