Jeffrey Wright: Young Man at Rolls

Faithful

Young Man at Rolls

[two men are admiring a Rolls Royce parked near the sidewalk]
Young Man at Rolls: Nice Rolls. Beautiful. Incredible.
Young Man at Rolls: You see the line, though?
Young Man at Rolls: It's incredibly beautiful. I wonder what it costs.
Young Man at Rolls: More than we could ever afford.
Young Man at Rolls: Yeah, well, wouldn't it be great to have a car like this? Totally awesome.
Margaret: [looking miserable] It wont make you happy.
Young Man at Rolls: [realizing her presence] What?
Margaret: This car, it won't make you happy.
Young Man at Rolls: [scoffs] I'll look happy, though.
Young Man at Rolls: Yeah.
[gestures towards Margaret]
Young Man at Rolls: Let's help her out. I think we should help her.
Young Man at Rolls: [to Margaret] You all right?
[she doesn't reply]
Young Man at Rolls: You need some help?
[Margaret nods solemnly]
Young Man at Rolls: [reaching for his wallet] Look, I just have 20s.
Young Man at Rolls: Give her some money.
Young Man at Rolls: That's all I have.
[man two snatches the wallet]
Young Man at Rolls: Look, don't,
[Man two hands Margaret the money]
Young Man at Rolls: Aw, man, come on.
[Margaret looks at it, waits a beat, then takes the 20. She smiles sadly, nods, gets in the Rolls Royce and drives away. The men watch, dumbfounded]
Young Man at Rolls: [teasingly shoves the second man] You owe me 20 bucks!
