Get the Foreigner - Ep. 1 scene 2

A Screenplay by Corri Esther
"

Rachael comes home to a rather shocking sight: her whole house is packed away in boxes. It would seem as her dad forgot to tell her something.

"
FADE IN:
A LITTLE WARNING NEXT TIME
EXT. HER DAD’S HOUSE " AFTERNOON
RACHAEL walks up to her drive way, grabs the mail, and starts going through it. One is an invitation to Videogame-con.
Rachael walks inside
INT. THE FOYER " AFTER NOON
The house has an open layout in which the foyer, family room, and kitchen are connected.
The house is filled with card board boxes.
Rachael walks through still absent mindedly checking her mail. She attempts to put the mail down on where she assumes the table will be. The mail falls to the ground. Looking up Rachael suddenly realizes the condition of her house.
RACHAEL
(Concerned)
Daaaaad?
INT. RACHAEL’S DAD’S STUDY " AFTER NOON
RACHAEL is standing in the door way. MR. PETER is sitting on the floor in a pile of papers he seems to be sorting through.
RACHAEL
Um, dad, please tell me you signed up for the Cardboard Box of the Month Club. Or that you've stared a collection of hobo houses.
Mr. Peter looks up, cheerfully

MR. PETER
(Talks like it’s obvious and no big deal)
Oh, hey sweaty, didn't I tell you? We’re moving today.
RACHAEL
No, you seemed to forgotten that little detail.
MR. PETER
Oh, sorry. Don’t be mad at me, I uh … got a promotion?
RACHAEL
(Regaining composure)
I’m not mad; it’s just, you know, a little warning next time? So where we moving? Up town? Down the street? New York? 
MR. PETER
Looks up at Rachael and gives her a innocent child-like smile
South Korea 
Rachael bangs her head. She purses her lips and looks at her without saying a word.

I know the dialogue is pretty rough. Any suggestions?
