THIRD BLACK WOMAN
Take your hand off me! PTOLEMY (confused) Sensie? Reggie is on his way to this new situation. THIRD BLACK WOMAN Say what? Reggie puts himself between the young women and his great uncle. REGGIE
Sorry if he did anything wrong, miss. You know he’s old and spends a lot of time thinking about the past. YOUNG WOMAN #2 He’s cute. THIRD BLACK WOMAN Let’s get outta here.
As the women leave Ptolemy looks after them. He sees, superimposed upon the contemporary ladies, Sensia Howard turning and blowing him a kiss. REGGIE You okay, Papa Grey? PTOLEMY She’s the most beautiful woman I ever known. God’s one true gift to me. Reggie looks at the three young women a little perplexed at what his elder is seeing. EXT. NOLAN’S DINER - AFTERNOON Nolan’s looks like a train’s caboose lifted up on giant cinder blocks. INT. NOLAN'S DINER - CONTINUOUS On the inside it’s not a very large place; six tables and two booths next to the window.
