Perspective

FADE IN

INT. FRONT DESK OF VETERINARY CLINIC

Two American women sit behind the desk conversing as a Scotsman, who has lived in American for seven years, enters from back and asks a question to neither woman in particular, but also to both at the same time.

SCOTSMAN

Do you have a penny with Abraham Lincoln on it?

Neither woman pays heed to the words from the Scotsman, until abruptly one of the women looks up queerly at him.

WOMAN #1

All pennies have Abraham Lincoln on them.

SCOTSMAN

Oh.  I thought I’d have a hard time finding one.

The women look at each other than back to the Scotsman in disbelief.

The End
