3   INT. MASTER BEDROOM - NIGHT                                      3

    KATE McCALLISTER is talking on the phone and packing a
    suitcase. She's handsome and energetic, in her early
    forties.

    Still dressed from work.

                      KATE
            I don't want any calls. I'm not
            going to France so I can spend the
            holidays on the phone.

    KEVIN McCALLISTER enters. He's seven.

                  KEVIN
             (to Linnie)
        Do you know what I should pack?

                  LINNIE
        What're you worried about? Mom's
        gonna pack your stuff anyway.
        You're what the French call les
        Incompetant.
