Roxy licks her face.
LILA
Tony and I talked about what to do with Roxy. He’s not home enough to keep her, so I took her with me. But it’s just too hot. She can barely go outside when the sun’s out. That’s why I’ve been calling you.
SCOTT
(to Morgan)
Your brother is a dick!
MORGAN
Well… yeah.
SCOTT
Did you know he was a dick?
MORGAN
(meaning yes)
He’s my brother.
SCOTT
How come you never told me he was a dick?
MORGAN
I sort of thought you’d figured it out after twenty-two years.
Roxy watches this exchange intently, turning her head for each speaker.
SCOTT
(to Lila)
I… am sorry my friend is a dick.
Morgan clears his throat.
SCOTT
And that I let Morgan talk me into kidnapping your dog when I didn’t have all the facts.
Lila raises her eyebrows.
SCOTT
Wow, nobody wants to be the bigger man today. Okay, I get it.
LILA
I was calling you because Roxy’s always loved you. It kills me, but she was really Tony’s dog anyway. And she’d be happier somewhere with shade. I thought maybe you’d take her.
The scene required a few takes due to weather interference and, once, Rita taking a bathroom break between parked cars and the three humans dissolving in laughter. But it wrapped, and Steve handed Rita off to his mother to head back to the hotel with Drew.
