INT. NEWT’S STAIRCASE—A MINUTE LATER—NIGHT

NEWT climbs the stairs to his living quarters, wand drawn, curious and
expecting the worst. He pushes open the door.

SCENE 35
INT. NEWT’S SITTING ROOM—NIGHT

A spartan bachelor residence. NEWT’S real life is in the basement.

JACOB KOWALSKI and QUEENIE GOLDSTEIN stand in the middle of the
room, suitcases beside them, QUEENIE nervous and excited, JACOB unfocused
and over-merry, possibly drunk. He is holding the remaining pieces of NEWT’S
vase, which he has just broken.

QUEENIE

If you could just give it to me . . . Just give it to me, sweetie. Just
give it to me.
(whispering)
If you could just give this to me, sweetheart. Oh!
JACOB

(looking at NEWT)
He doesn’t care. Hold it.
NEWT

St—
JACOB

(bellows)
HEY! NEWT! Get over here, you maniac.

He flings his arms around a delighted but awkward NEWT.
QUEENIE

We hope you don’t mind, Newt? We let ourselves in—it’s raining
out there—cats and dogs! London’s cold!
NEWT
