1
Working in the kitchen.
She is just finishing of hamburger meal.
Talking about Blake's Mother to another staff member.
Voice become very flamboyant due to hormone pills.
2
I mean we have tried to go through this again and again. The custody is just not worth it anymore.
I mean Blake is eighteen now, and she chooses now to want to come back into his life. She says she wants him to keep grounded.3
NANCY
4
Hands the waitresses her cooked meal for her next customer.
Starts work buttering buns.
While listening, and talking with Alexis
5
Why would she want to keep him grounded? You have done a perfectly good job at keeping his chin up and out of trouble, well from what I know you have done a damn fine job at raising him. What does she think that bringing him into her world would make him see things clearer?ALEXIS
6
Hand her plate to the waitress.
Checking her wrist watch, noticing it Five minutes till her break.
She watches as a new staff member walks into the kitchen.
Leans back against the bench.
7
I have no idea, simply no idea. I think she would be doing it absolutely out of spite; just because she could. Well I tell you I would rather have my Blake around me than some dope smoking, hippie who doesn't even know how to take care of a bloody plot plant let alone a eighteen year old boy. I mean fair enough I might not be the best Mother in town, but I sure as hell know how to take care of my boy.NANCY
8
Stands still, he back against the bench.
Listens to Alexis before having her own say.

Do you think this about the surgery? Think maybe she thinks that you aren't capable of being a woman?I think she might be jealous to, you know afraid men might see you as a better looking woman than her. I bet your bottom dollar that plays a factor in her fogged up mind.
Even still, Blake loved you for who you are, and I am guaranteeing from what he knows about his mothers preferred lifestyle, he would be best steering right away from it. Things like that can get to a mans head, and he has a bright future in front of him.
He doesn't need you to bickering about a custody battle that could of happened Five years ago, but didn't because she frankly didn't give a damn.11
ALEXIS
12
Nods head in agreement
Unknowingly puts her hands on her hips
Throwing her long hair back behind her shoulders.
13
I have wondered that as well. I mean with the industry she has been in she has always been self conscious and I feel bad for her of course, and not to be stuck up; but really I do believe I could beat her in looks man or woman hands down, and if she sees that as a threat, and wants to use our son as a ploy than that is really just sad, and pathetic.
I told her, I said Honey, he doesn't want to be around you at all. I mean I asked him and he said he doesn't want anything to do with her.
His own words so if it comes to the point where she is stupid enough to take me to court over this then he will testify, and he will tell the judge what he told me.
I raised him to be like that, and I will tell them that I was the one who raised him, man or woman, I raised my son, and I love my son with all my heart.14
NANCY
15
Nods in agreement.
Looking around she spots Blake in the far corner.
His hands on a young womans
closely talking.
Returns her eyes back to Alexis
16
You never told me Blake had a girlfriend.Oh what a ladies man.
Giggles
17
ALEXIS
18
Looks surprised.
Moves forwards
Looking to see Blake sitting with the woman.
His hands on hers.
19
20No he hasn't mentioned it at all.
21
22Looks back at Nancy.
23
24Thats strange. He usually tells me everything.
Why wouldn't he tell me about this?
25
NANCY
26
Draws a blank expression.
Shrugs her shoulders.
Looks back to Blake.
27
Maybe he was scared. I know my brother was always scared of introducing his girlfriends to my Father.
ALEXIS
28
Mother
corrects Nancy
29
Even still. He has nothing to be afraid of.
He has introduced me to a lot of his friends before today.
I don't understand.
Is there something wrong with me?
What is he suddenly ashamed of me, ashamed to introduce me to a woman?30
NANCY
I don't understand.
Is there something wrong with me?
What is he suddenly ashamed of me, ashamed to introduce me to a woman?30
NANCY
31
Laughs lightly, shaking her head.
Moved forward rubbing Alexis Arm.
32
No silly there is nothing wrong with you. You are perfectly fine.
I bet there is a reasonable explanation to why he has not told you yet.
Maybe he is scared, maybe he is likes the secret, it might make him feel all hot inside knowing he has a secret lover. Who knows.
But I seriously doubt he would be embarrassed by you, he wasn't before and he isn't likely to be now.
Why don't you just go on over there and ask him if he would like to order anything?
Chances are he might even ask you to join them.33

ALEXIS36
Nods, taking Nancy's hand in her own
smiles, and grabs a notepad of the bench placing it in her belt.
37
Thanks a lot Nancy.
Your right why would he be embarrassed of me now.
He never has been, there has to be a reasonable explanation.
38
39Looks at watch, noticing she is Five minutes due for a lunch break.40
This doesn't count in my lunch break does it?
Laughs41
NANCY
42
Shakes her head
Laughing loudly.
She steps away as a new handful of orders come in.
43
44No I should not think so, you have been working you ass of all week.
I got you covered, go over there, introduce yourself.
Just remember relax, and play it cool.

ALEXIS

Walks slowly out of the kitchen and into the crowded coffee shop
47
