EDWARD

Derick seems very upset. This piece clearly holds more significance to him than to us.

Jake looks at Derick with a sad expression on his face.

Derick turns his attention to Jake. He looks like a light has gone on in his life.

"Jake! It is very important that we retrieve this piece!" Derick tells Jake. The urgency in his voice makes me wonder what the story behind it is.

"Jake?" I ask softly. "I don't mean to pry, but could someone tell us what is going on?"

Jake looks at me and then turns his gaze back to Derick. Derick picks the paper up and walks around the counter to a small seated area on the other side of his office. There is a large winged back chair in the corner where Derick makes himself comfortable.
