INT. HUNTER'S KITCHEN - SUNRISE

Tea kettle on stove. Stove clock at 6:25. A little coffee in the pot of the pour-over kit on the counter. Window view to phone, coffee mug, pen on yellow legal pad on the patio table, roadrunner still on the stone wall until it scurries away when Hunter - jeans, running shoes, MT. BALDY long-sleeve tee - walks into view, finishes coffee, approaches, mug in hand.

He enters, pours remaining coffee in pot into mug, puts mug in microwave, turns dial for brief heat. DING when it's done. He gets mug, steps into hall, stops, sips, takes a step out of view. 

INT. HALL

At the end of the hall near the partially open doors to the guest room and bathroom across from it. Hunter approaches slowly.

INT. GUEST ROOM

Tom in pajamas, still on his back under the covers, eyes closed, one arm alongside him, the other hand on his chest. Phone on desk, hat on rack, boots on floor near suitcase. 

HUNTER (O.S.) Tom?

He arrives in the doorway, stands and stares at Tom.

HUNTER (LOUDER): Tom?

He enters, stands at the bed.

HUNTER (LOUDER): Tom? 

He sets mug on desk, touches Tom's hand, no response. He takes Tom's hand, no response. He pinches Tom's arm, no response. He feels for a pulse, finally drops Tom's hand softly alongside him. He checks Tom's carotid pulse, holds a finger under Tom's nose to check for breathing. He sits, stares at Tom.
