EXT. LIBRARY -- MOMENTS LATER -- FALL 85

The LIMO DRIVER slams the limo door. Carrie is seen through

the window, sitting in back -- stunned. Miranda and Charlotte

are in the back next to her -- stunned.

63.

86 INT. BIG'S CAR -- CONTINUOUS -- FALL 86

Big sits, pale, staring off as the car drives away.

BIG

(sudden realization)

What the fuck am I doing? What the

fuck am I doing?

(to Raoul)

Turn around and go back.

RAOUL

It's a one way street. I have to go

around the block.

BIG

By the time we go around the block

she'll be gone. No one's behind us -

- Turn around!

EXT. 41ST STREET -- CONTINUOUS -- FALL 87

Big's car makes a QUICK three-point turn and starts back up

the one-way street as Carrie's limo turns onto it.

88 INT. BIG'S CAR -- CONTINUOUS -- FALL 88

Raoul sees the limo -- coming.

RAOUL

I think this is them.

BIG

Pull over. Pull over.

Big's car pulls over, as the limo approaches. Big powers down

his window -- as the limo passes, he sees Carrie in the

window --resting her head against the glass, listless.

BIG (CONT'D)

Carrie!

Carrie looks up, and see's Big. He smiles an apologetically

smile. Her limo keeps on moving. Big watches it go. Until...

EXT. 41ST STREET -- CONTINUOUS -- FALL 89

The limo SCREECHES to a halt. The back door flies open and

Carrie almost leaps out. Big sees her, he looks relieved.

64.

She hurries up the street to Big's car holding her bouquet.

Big gets out of his car just as Carrie reaches him.

BIG

I freaked out for a minute -- but --

I'm ready now --

Carrie HITS him with her bouquet. It's a violent direct hit

on his face. He recoils. She hits him again, hard... a

wounded sound escaping her throat.

BIG (CONT'D)

Carrie!

She hits him again. He ducks back into the car for

protection. She hits the bouquet on the roof of the car --

the flowers start breaking apart and flying everywhere.

CARRIE

I knew you would do this -- I knew

it!

Miranda reaches Carrie and holds her back by her waist. Big

gets back out of the car and starts over to her.

BIG

I'm sorry -- I just --

With all she has left, she throws the broken bouquet at him.

CARRIE

You left! I am humiliated!

Carrie starts crying. Charlotte has arrived. Carrie turns and

falls into her arms. Miranda and Charlotte lead her away. Big

starts over to follow.

BIG

Carrie, wait --

Charlotte whips her head around and stares him down.

CHARLOTTE

No!

He stops in his tracks. A WAITRESS (20's) at the Brant Park

Cafe nearby "over-pours" water into a CUSTOMER'S glass --

riveted by the scene. Miranda and Charlotte move Carrie back

into the limo. A CAB comes down the street and HONKS at Big

standing in the road; dazed.

A.

90 INT. CHARLOTTE'S APARTMENT/STUDY -- LATER -- FALL 90

Carrie sits in a chair. She is holding a glass and has an

Hermes blanket wrapped around her.

65.

Miranda sits nearby holding a bottle of vodka. Samantha

paces, working on her iPHONE.

CARRIE

I thought I would still be in

extreme pain but I'm feeling

nothing.

Carrie reaches over and holds out her glass.

CARRIE (CONT'D)

I'd like a little more nothing.

Miranda nods and pours some more vodka into it...

CARRIE (V.O.) (CONT'D)

I had gone from Little Women to

Little Drunk Women.

Charlotte enters and looks over at Carrie, soulfully.

CARRIE (CONT'D)

Yes, I'm still jilted.

SAMANTHA

What the hell got into him? He was

perfectly fine at the dinner.

Miranda sips her vodka -- should she say anything?

CARRIE

I knew it when he called last

night. I could tell.

SAMANTHA

Why didn't you say anything?

She shrugs and sips.

CARRIE

Didn't want to believe it. Didn't

even want to say it out loud.

(beat)

And now I have nowhere to love --

(beat; then)

I meant live. I have nowhere to

live.

CHARLOTTE

You'll stay here.

CARRIE

Forever.

A.

She sips. Charlotte looks at her, concerned.

66.

CHARLOTTE

Maybe you should eat something.

She shakes her head. Charlotte looks at the others.

CHARLOTTE (CONT'D)

Anyone hungry?

They shake their heads; no.

CARRIE

Well, if you change your minds, I

know where we can get one hundred

beef, seventy-five fish and twenty-

five vegetarian meals.

She sips. Charlotte rubs her back. She sips.

CARRIE (CONT'D)

And my clothes. All my clothes. I

can never go over there again. How

am I going to get my clothes?

SAMANTHA

Oh, honey -- I can hire people to

do all that. Anything you need.

CARRIE

A hit man?

(beat)

I have nothing to wear but a

wedding gown.

CHARLOTTE

You have your honeymoon stuff here.

CARRIE

There's the silver lining. A

honeymoon to a romantic Mexican

resort that's pre-paid on my credit

card because I wanted to surprise

the man who jilted me.

SAMANTHA

I can get you out of that. Worse

comes to worse -- I'll say there

was a death or something.

CARRIE

Wasn't there?

She sips, looking sad.

A.

90A INT. CHARLOTTE'S APARTMENT/LILY'S ROOM -- LATER 90A

Charlotte leans down and tucks in the sleeping Lily. She

picks up a "Chinese baby doll" and nestles it under Lily's

arm, then turns and starts out.

67.

91 INT. CHARLOTTE'S APARTMENT/HALLWAY -- CONTINUOUS 91

Miranda is standing in the hall as Charlotte enters from

Lily's room.

MIRANDA

I did something really bad -- I

think.

Charlotte looks at her.

MIRANDA (CONT'D)

I said something to Big. At the

rehearsal dinner.

CHARLOTTE

What do you mean?

MIRANDA

It was right after Steve showed up.

I was upset... Big came up to me --

and I said something like: You're

crazy to get married.

(off her look)

It just came out.

Charlotte nods trying to understand.

MIRANDA (CONT'D)

Do you think it was totally the

reason?

CHARLOTTE

(cutting her a break)

No, no, no. Big has been weird

about marriage for years.

MIRANDA

I keep thinking I should tell

Carrie.

CHARLOTTE

No, no. This is a really bad time

to even mention it - no, no, no.

Find another time. Later.

Samantha comes down the hall. She is energized.

SAMANTHA

Well, turns out, I couldn't get her

out of the honeymoon -- but I got

us in.

68.

MIRANDA

What?

SAMANTHA

I just booked us three seats on the

flight. Mexico here we come.

Charlotte and Miranda react; completely thrown.

MIRANDA

I can't go to Mexico. I have a job.

Samantha indicates Carrie -- sitting in the den staring off

to nowhere, deeply sad -- Devastated.

92 EXT. MEXICAN RESORT/ROAD -- SUNSET 92

A lush tropical road with a view of the sun setting on the

ocean. A large open air GOLF CART comes around the bend

holding the girls. Carrie's hair blows in the breeze, her

sunglasses firmly in place.

93 EXT. MEXICAN RESORT/HOUSE -- A LITTLE LATER 93

A gorgeous romantic private house surrounded by tropical

splendor. The cart arrives in front. The DOORS are open and

PAULO (38) the BUTLER stands there holding a tray with two

beautiful tropical drinks. He is surprised when he sees the

four women, but he covers, effortlessly.

PAULO

Welcome to Mexico.

SAMANTHA

Buenos dias.

Carrie gets out of the cart and goes into the house --

followed by Charlotte and Miranda. Samantha arrives and picks

up a drink off the tray.

PAULO

I'm sorry. I am confused. I am

waiting for a Mr. And Mrs. Preston.

SAMANTHA

Honey, you'll be waiting for a long

time.

She sips the drink, then looks at him, "familiar."

69.

SAMANTHA (CONT'D)

We'll talk.

94 INT. MEXICAN RESORT HOUSE/MAIN ROOM -- CONTINUOUS 94

Charlotte and Miranda stand looking at the gorgeous, romantic

private Mexican bungalow. Samantha enters; looks.

SAMANTHA

This... will kill her.

(beat)

Where is she?

CHARLOTTE

In the powder room.

95 INT. MEXICAN RESORT HOUSE/POWDER ROOM -- CONTINUOUS 95

Carrie stands looking in the mirror. She takes off her

sunglasses. Her eyes are red, red, red. She splashes water on

her face and looks at herself in the beautiful Mexican

mirror.

96 INT. MEXICAN RESORT HOUSE/MASTER BEDROOM -- MOMENTS LATER 96

Paulo leads Miranda, Charlotte, and Samantha into the

romantic bedroom suite. On the bed -- rose petals are

scattered in the shape of a large heart.

MIRANDA

Oh My God!

Miranda and Charlotte quickly grab the bed cover and jerk it

up -- throwing all the rose petals off. Paulo watches.

Miranda addresses him in a very intense WHISPER.

MIRANDA (CONT'D)

No more honeymoon stuff. This is

very important. Have I made myself

clear?
