DIANE COLE (SUPPORTING - female, 40s) - Nathan's mother
SUPPORTING, spread across the book. Nathan's mother, a bank branch manager, raising two kids alone. She half-knows something about her son and has never once said it out loud. SOUND: careful and kind on the surface with something tight underneath. Measured. She chooses her words. DIRECTION: every ordinary line, even asking whether he ate, should carry a second thing she never says. Not a cold mother, not obviously suspicious, just a woman watching her child and hoping she is wrong. ACCENT: light Northeast Philadelphia, or neutral American.
Okay. Drive safe. Tell Maya we're thinking of her family.
Emily, you let me read your diary in fourth grade. You left it on the kitchen table open to a page that said, Mom, read this.
You've been out a lot. That's all I'm saying. I'm not asking where.
