Two men are sitting at a table for coffee.

Neither is drinking.

We’re beginning in the middle of their conversation.

Man 2. So… this has to do with us?

Man 1. Yeah.

Man 2. The gay penguins at the zoo… they have to do with us?

Man 1. Yes.

Man 2. Okay.

Sadie walks in with Rachel on her hip.

Sadie. Let’s go, dear.
