FADE IN:

INT. KOREAN RESTAURANT – EVENING

MR ANGEL, MR THESIS, NIKO and JONATHAN are gathered around a table at a Korean restaurant for Mr Angel’s going away dinner on an unusually cold autumn evening. The waitress walks over to the table and begins to place the ordered feast items on the restaurant table.

MR ANGEL

(passing things down the table)

Oh, wow, this is a lot of stuff...

NIKO

Yeah

JONATHAN

Mr Angel, you don’t normally have this type of food, right?

MR ANGEL

Yeah, I try to avoid eating beef and things, lately, but sometimes...

MR THESIS

This looks so good...

MR ANGEL

(to the waitress, in Korean)

Thank you!

The conversation continues as the meat grills. Meat and grease shine as flames rise and fall, casting shadows on the bowls of pickled and prepared sides. Mr Thesis’ wedding once again becomes the topic of conversation.

MR ANGEL

(to Mr Thesis)

So... how did you guys meet, again?

MR THESIS

Oh, we were introduced by Father Foggy...

MR ANGEL

And we were married by the Father!

NIKO

Everyone has to talk to the Father, ha ha.

MR ANGEL

(smiles)

What about you, Jonathan?

NIKO

... you have to ask the Father, ha ha.

Some time passes and the barbecue comes to a close.

MR ANGEL

So, guys, I’m getting the garage sale ready for this weekend. I’m getting everything ready and it should be ready to go by Friday evening. Do you... do you think you can make it...?

MR THESIS

Sounds good, man; I’m not sure if I can make it, but...

JONATHAN

That’s cool; what time, again?

MR ANGEL

I’m aiming for five or six o’clock... I’m tellin’ you, it will be a blowout sale. Everything must go! ha ha ha...

The four make their way to the door after paying for the meal. They walk out the front doors of the restaurant and say their final goodbyes as the bitter cold continues its relentless, untimely advance.
