KEISIA Why are you throwing up? You’re not pregnant are you?
Gabby looks up at her, puts a hand on her bigger-than-usual boobs, does the calculations in her head: Oh shit . DEVO’s jittery, catchy version of (CAN’T GET NO) SATISFACTION starts. BIG LETTERS over Gabby’s face: THE BIG LEAP Over this we PRE-LAP: GABBY (O.S.) Sam! We can’t be late again...
INT. GABBY’S MOM’S HOUSE - DAY CARD ONSCREEN: 8 YEARS LATER.
The Devo song continues over morning chaos! Same cheerful cluttered house. Gabby, now 26, wearing business casual from Target is trying to get her adorable son SAM, 7, out the door. GABBY We gotta go! How’d you get avocado in your hair? Gina walks by, hands Sam a pop tart. GABBY (CONT'D) Mom! That’s like a brick of sugar. GINA You did not invent the thigh gap. That did not happen. This is too stupid for me to engage with. Sam! Gabby herds Sam out the door. Gina calls after them. GINA Yes I did! I put it on facebook in the Summer of 2012... Gabby mouths “Oh my god” as she and Sam get out the door. Um, I invented the thigh gap. I think I know about nutrition. GABBY
