SCENE 1 | Telly waits with David by the bus stop, where David is supposed to meet his grandma, but she's very late. Telly starts to worry why she's not here yet, when she finally arrives. She claims the bus was stuck in traffic and was worried she won't be here in time, so she walked instead. She then worries that her homemade pie got squished in the process. Telly finds Grandma's worrying reminiscent of his own grandmother and wishes she were visiting too. Grace offers to be Telly's grandma for the day and does some more worrying to appease Telly. |
