The Next Day – Monday, 11 AM – Montecito, Santa Barbara, CA
"Fellas, breakf--- uh, lunch is ready." Ida, Gary's housekeeper announces as she enters Gary's study.
"Alright. Let's go." Gary says to both Xiao Song and Helena who he is sharing a huge desk with.
"I'm fine. You two go." Xiao Song says, his eyes still on the sheets of paper in front of him.
"We already skipped breakfast. You can't keep on suckin on candy." Gary says as he stands up.
Helena also stands up and starts putting away Xiao Song's stuff on one of the desk's drawer.
"Alright, lady. Stop. I'm going." Xiao Song takes out the things Helena has put on the drawer.
Helena smirks, finally discovering a way to pull Xiao Song out of his obsessive state.
"Please, may there be vegetables." Xiao Song jokingly laments as they all head to the dining area..
"I've learned how to cook chop suey just for you." Ida says.
"That's nice…" Xiao Song is flattered.
