CAP’N GREG: Hi. Don’t want to startle you. I’m Cap’n Greg. May I help you with something, miss …?
DANIELLE: Danielle. Why? Do I look like I need help?
CAP’N GREG: I take a walk by here almost every morning, and I don’t see too many women in bathing suits sitting on the curb at 8 AM.
DANIELLE: You think I’m lost?
CAP’N GREG: I don’t see a car anywhere. But I do see a wrist band from a condo complex. You staying there, Danielle?
DANIELLE: The last couple nights.
CAP’N GREG: That’s quite a walk.
DANIELLE: I got dumped.
CAP’N GREG: Boyfriend? Husband?
DANIELLE: Girlfriend. She found better company.
CAP’N GREG: Stuff happens. You hungry?
DANIELLE: I could eat a zebra.
CAP’N GREG: My place is just down the block.
DANIELLE: You have a zebra there?
CAP’N GREG: No, but my wife wouldn’t mind going out for breakfast. You can join us.
DANIELLE: But I don’t have any…
CAP’N GREG: Our treat. And I’m sure we can find you a cover-up of some kind, clean up a little, get you home safe.
DANIELLE: Do I look like I need cleaned up?
CAP’N GREG: No, but I could stand a toothbrush and a clean T-shirt.
DANIELLE: You don’t know me from Adam. Why are you doing this?
CAP’N GREG: Actually, you look more like Eve. And people helping people is part of the culture.
DANIELLE: And margaritas.
CAP’N GREG: That, too.
DANIELLE: It’s Cap’n Greg, huh?
CAP’N GREG: You can call me Cap’n.
DANIELLE: And you can call me thankful.
CAP’N GREG: No thanks necessary, Danielle. Now, let’s go find you that zebra.
