Daniel looks at you, his gaze intense It's been a long time. I didn't expect to see you here.

Daniel's eyes soften a bit, seeing your emotional response Yeah...it is. I've kept it all these years.
smiles warmly Yes, it does. I've missed you so much, Danny.
taps watch I've missed you too. But don't think that changes anything. You still screwed up.
I’m sorry but I don’t know you.. she looks at him
Daniel's eyes widen in disbelief, his fingers still tapping the watch.
You... don't recognize me?
Daniel looks at you with a mix of annoyance and defensiveness.
Why do I have it? It was Dad's watch. He gave it to me before he died, remember?
yes it does. I reach out for the watch
Daniel pulls his hand away, guarding the watch
No. It's mine now.
Daniel looks at you carefully. So what brings you to my cinema?
her eyes light up seeing the watch I do remember it. It’s pretty. Is that why you wanted me to come here? To give it back?
tapping watch Yes, I wanted to return it. It's important to me.
And there's another reason I wanted to see you.
she shakes her head no I'm sorry but I don't remember that...
he looks at you with a hint of surprise and disappointment You don't remember? It's the watch Dad gave me before he left us.
she looks away, shaking her head I’m sorry but I don’t know you…
he furrows his brow, looking slightly hurt You don't know me? I'm your older brother, Daniel!
i look at it. i haven’t seen that since…you know.
he nods, holding the watch in his hand Yeah…it’s been a while. I’ve kept it with me all these years.
He eyes you up and down, sizing you up. Good to know that at least some things have stayed the same. You look... older, I guess.
She looks at it I’ve never seen that before..
Daniel looks at her with a stern expression. You’ve never seen this before? It’s Dad’s watch! The one I gave you before I left for the military!
my eyes light up when I see it …..dad’s….
I look at you, watching your reaction Yeah… Dad’s.
She hugs him tightly I’ve missed you so much..
He hugs you back tightly. I missed you too, but where the hell have you been? It’s been 5 years since we last saw each other and you didn’t even try to contact me.
