Steph, dressed up as The Easter Bunny, is smiling. Tom is sat on the sofa, with chocolate all round his mouth. Max is hugging Steph. OB and Summer are even there, and they all look like a happy family.
There is a knock on the door.
OB wanders over and opens the door...
There is a girl - about hannah and sarah's age - with blonde hair...
The resembleance is unmissable...
"Is Clare here?" the girl asked, innocently.
"Is this some sort of joke?" OB asks. The whole room has gone silent now. The tension is unbearable.
"Um... no. She's my sister, and this is the last address she left us... can i talk to her?" she asks, confused.
"She doesn't live here", OB responds. He goes to shut the door but she places her foot in the way.
"Please. It's urgent. Where is she? I really need to speak with her. I have no where else to go..."
Max stands up, and walks toward the door. " She never mentioned a sister." he says firmly. " and i don't want anything to do with her, or her family."
"Ahh... " she says. "I understand now. She told us that James was the only one... but she did it to you too..."

Ok continuing... I Know it makes no sense now Max is leaving and Summer and OB are gon but who cares...?
"Come in" Max says quietly. OB turns towards him. "Are you sure?" he asks.
Tom whimpers. He turns to Max and whispers "who is she? She looks like Claire... I didn't like Claire."
"I'm really sorry but I don't know what's going on... who's Claire?" Summer asks quietly. "Max's ex." replies Steph. "Ohh.. your mean the one who..." "YEP" blurts Max, clearly frustrated. "Maybe you should take Tom to Il Gnosh to see Tony, Summer." "O...k then. Come on Tom."
Summer and Tom head for the door. They budge past the girl, and then they're gone.
The minute they're out of sight, the silence is unbareable.
"Look..."says the girl. "I know this isn't easy but do you have any idea where she is? It's really important."
"What's your name?" asks Steph. She regrets it almost instantly.
