![]() Kristina Diaz and Cassandra Diaz INT. ICE SURFACE (Lloyd Park Arena) -- DAY Kristina Diaz shakes her head as Cassandra talks to her.

INT. ICE SURFACE -- DAY

Cassandra frowns... realizing that Kristina has aborted the set program.

(to herself) Kristina turns again... skating another improvisation... preparing for another jump.

Cassandra sighs as she can do nothing but watch... she cringes as Kristina stumbles... she manages to stay on her feet... but Cassandra notices the judges making notes. INT. LOCKER ROOM -- DAY Kristina throws her skates across the room as her sister enters the area. Kristina's make-up has run slightly... evidence of tears. Cassandra looks at the situation then walks over and stands in front of Kristina.
