ZIA, muttering: Come on, wake up. Nolan, this is not the time to be sleeping.

door opens

NOLAN: Zee?

ZIA, brushing past him: Sorry, were you sleeping?

NOLAN:  … Of course not. It’s only three in the morning.

ZIA: So do not need your lip right now. We have to go.

NOLAN: Go?

ZIA, bouncing on the balls of her feet: I need you to take a road trip with me.

NOLAN: Come again?

ZIA, practically vibrating: Nolan Shape, you’re being deliberately obtuse.

NOLAN, wryly: What’s obtuse mean again?

ZIA: I’m serious, Nol. I’m calling … ultimate friendship favor, or something like that.

NOLAN: …

ZIA: I triple dog dare you.

NOLAN: Well in that case. Let me pack a bag. How long are we talking?

ZIA: Not very long - a day and a half each way, a few days there.

NOLAN: not very … snort. Zee, you don’t do anything halfway, do you? What are we doing, digging up Bluebeards treasure?

ZIA: His trial starts in two days. I sat up from being asleep and came to in front of my fridge, throwing every soft drink I have into a cooler.

NOLAN: Elliot's? For his father’s…

ZIA: Yes. Yes. Now are you ready?

NOLAN: Give me ten minutes to get a bag. … Why do you look surprised?

ZIA: I’m - not.

NOLAN: That’s what ultimate friendship favors are for. Now, go lock up the front door. I have the perfect mix for crossing state lines.
