A salon owner in St. Louis, MO accidently found the script of the upcoming Twilight sequel, New Moon, in a trash bin.

The salon owner, Casey Ray, was waiting patiently for her fiancé to finish up at work when she spotted two scripts in a trash bin. She was waiting outside a hotel where the actors were residing while shooting in St. Louis for the upcoming movie, Up in the Air, starring George Clooney.

Casey Ray found two scripts, one for the vampire sequel New Moon and one for a different movie titled Memoirs. She decided to return them to the studio making the films. In return, she was invited to attend the movies' premieres, her lawyer said.

As for how and why the two scripts ended up in the garbage, it is not known.

When Ray found the scripts, she considered leaking them to a national tabloid but decided against it, said her lawyer, Al Watkins.

"My client didn't really want to get paid," he said, but she was interested in hanging onto the scripts as collector's items.

Watkins helped her return them to Los Angeles-based Summit Entertainment LLC, the studio making the movies. He said the studio invited Ray to premieres for the two films, and will certify the scripts as authentic after the movies are released.

"Summit doesn't comment on any of the deals it does," Summit spokesman Paul Pflug said. But he added, "We thank Ms. Ray for doing the right thing."

So far the only plausible and obvious explanation to why the Twilight sequel script ended up in the garbage is that it was in its rightful place.
