Panel 1: Action shot of Nate sitting down at the table with his lunch; his other hand gently laying the locked phone back on the table just above the plate.

(casual shrug)
Just as well. My docket's already packed with work and prepping for the festival. Not to mention my SAG card, which should be coming soon.
Panel 2: Same setting/layout as the previous panel. A few moments later, we see him grab the burrito with both hands ready to take a bite.

At least that's what the guy on the phone told me yesterday. I forget when though...
Panel 3: Same setting/layout as the previous panel. A moment later, Nate takes a bite and slowly chews on it; the burrito still in both hands hovering a few inches from the plate.
NATE
(through stuffed mouth)
Mmmm...needs some salsa.
Panel 4: Cut to the row of mailboxes on the ground floor a little later that day; a faint sliver of sun coming from the door inside. You can see the young man walking toward that area from the far staircase.
Panel 5: A few minutes later, with the door to his mailbox opened, Nate reaches in to grab the day's mail; a casual demeanor on his face and through his body. In the background, in the form of "TAP TAP TAP" graphics, there's the sense of someone walking around or near him.

Panel 1: Action shot of him a few moments later, sifting through the sizable chunk of mail gripped in both hands in search of the big package in question. The tapping sounds from the previous panel are visible here, just a little louder than before.
Panel 2: Same setting/layout as the previous panel. He continues sifting through the mail, drawing ever closer to the big package just underneath a thinner letter. The tapping sounds from previous panel are a little louder than they were then.
Panel 3: Same setting/layout as the previous panel. A split second later, Nate has stopped walking discovers the big package from SAG; a bright smile suddenly coming over his face. As has been the case with the other three panels, the tapping has grown louder still as the mystery person comes closer.
NATE
(ecstatic)
Hello, sweet career heightening beauty!
Panel 4: Cut to an action shot of him resuming his move back to the staircase and later his apartment. The tapping sounds, unlike the other panels, suddenly drop in volume and frequency; just a couple of subtle "TAP...TAP..."

Now I can uncork that pricey bottle of SynCin I got from Von's and...
GOTV WORKER
(Off-Panel, to Nate)
Excuse me...

Panel 1: A full-page shot of a simple GOTV worker, wearing a light blue Democratic Party t-shirt and a pair of shorts, walking toward Nate with a friendly smile. In his left hand is a stack of party fliers freshly pressed and ready to deal out.
