PTOLEMY (suspicious) How I know it’s you? REGGIE (O.S.) Don’t you know my voice? PTOLEMY
I know a voice if I see the man. Sometime, you know, I ain’t so sure... REGGIE (O.S.) Well how can I prove it to ya that I’m me? Ptolemy glances over at the pictures on the console. He gets a little lost. REGGIE (O.S.)(CONT'D) Huh, Uncle? PTOLEMY What? REGGIE (O.S.) How can I prove to you that I’m me? PTOLEMY What did I always tell Reggie that he got to do? REGGIE (O.S.)
Ummm. Take care’a my kids, uh, see the doctor if I get fever. Put at least ten dollars in the bank whenever I get paid. PTOLEMY Anybody know that. But what did I tell Reggie ‘bout drinkin’? REGGIE (O.S.) Not to do it because when I do I’m likely to get mad.
Ptolemy puzzles out that this is the right answer. He grins and then, with some coordination difficulty he throws the six multi-colored bolts on the door and pulls the portal open revealing his tall, hefty great grandnephew, REGGIE LLOYD (32 year old dark-skinned black man, big and friendly).
