EXT. BEACH - MORNING
Hannah sits looking out to the ocean.
Contemplates.
She crumbles up the tin foil she was eating her cake out of, and (because no one is looking) drops it on the ground and brushes some sand over it. When she gets up she sees a hot dog vender not TOO far away.
EXT. HOT DOG VENDER
Hannah walks up to the stand. It must be early because the vender, who looks to be in his late 40s, hasn't even started grilling yet.
He's bent over fetching what he needs in the cooler.
HANNAH
Hey. I see you're not open yet?
The vender faces up to Hannah.
VENDER
Uh, no, not yet sorry. But it shouldn't take too long sweetheart.
Hannah
Well I have all the time in the world, so don't mind me.
VENDER
Is that true. Well I hope the wait is worth it. I been doin' this for 20 years, so I hope my cuisine meets your standards.
He laughs obnoxiously, and whips out the ketchup and mustard.
HANNAH
Oh I'm sure it will. I once ate a half eaten hot dog out of the garbage without even being hungry.
VENDER
(pre-occupied by setup)
You weren't.
HANNAH
No, I was just bored. Luckily I didn't get food poisoning or anything. I mean, it wasn't a public garbage. It was at my apartment, because my friend Marnie didn't want to gain any weight.
VENDER
(places dogs on the grill)
Hey a girls gotta eat ain't she.
HANNAH
Yes she does.
VENDER
You remind me a lot of my son. He'll eat anything. He once ate two fucking 12 inch meatball subs. Just loaded with meatballs.
HANNAH
Oh really.
VENDER
Yeah, but you know what they say, great minds eat alike.
Hannah humors him with a forced laugh.
VENDER
You know my boy's single. He hasn't had a girlfriend since highschool, and I'm starting to think he might be a fag. You interested?
HANNAH
Actually I just broke up with my boyfriend last night. So I am single. But-
VENDER
It's too soon.
HANNAH
Yeah. I mean it's not even that. I just think it's time to be more worried about my own problems. You know.
VENDER
Oh yeah, of course of course.
Hannah
(convincing herself)
Yeah.
VENDER
Well, they're almost done. How many you want?
HANNAH
Oh crap. Actually, I just remembered I got my handbag stolen.
VENDER
So you have no money?
Hannah puts on a guilty smile.
