Peter and Ethan are eating at a Waffle House. Peter works on a map.
ETHAN: So, Peter, what brought you to Atlanta, business or pleasure?
PETER: Business.
ETHAN: Business? What kind of business?
PETER: Architecture.
ETHAN: How’d you get into architecture?
PETER: College. Anything else? Cause I’m trying to…
ETHAN: I’m sorry, Peter, we’re going to be traveling for a few days, and it wouldn’t hurt to get to know each other.
PETER (let’s out a frustrated sigh): Okay. Ethan, what brought you to Atlanta, business, or pleasure?
ETHAN: My daddy died. I went to Atlanta to go to his funeral.
PETER: Gee. I didn’t know. I’m sorry.
ETHAN: He was a great guy, man. That’s why I’m heading out west—he’s the one that kind of motivated me to get on the TV.
PETER: TV?
ETHAN: Yeah.
PETER: Tough business to break into. So competitive. I have a friend…he’s in that industry.
ETHAN: Does he work on Two and a Half Men?
PETER: No…he, uh…
ETHAN: Oh man, that’s too bad, ‘cause Two and a Half Men is the reason I wanted to become an actor.
PETER: Right.
ETHAN: Especially the second season.
PETER: Here’s the plan. [points to his map] We are just outside Birmingham, and we got a late start so we will only make it just to the inside of Louisiana. Early to bed, early to rise. Long 16 – 18 hour haul which will land us in Phoenix, Arizona, and then we’re only 8 hours outside of Los Angeles.
ETHAN: You know what’d be nice? Is if we could stop off at the Grand Canyon.
PETER: We’re not going to the Grand Canyon, I’ll tell you why. That would be easily over 120 miles off our optimum route.
ETHAN: That’s too bad, cause Daddy would have loved the Grand Canyon. [he admires his coffee can]
PETER: Why do you have this?
ETHAN: Oh, cause this is my daddy. These are his ashes.
PETER: Why are your father’s ashes in a coffee can?
ETHAN: Because he’s dead, Peter.
PETER: I know, I know that part.
ETHAN: Don’t you listen to anything that anybody else says?
PETER: It’s just, normal people put remains in an urn.
ETHAN: This is vacuum-sealed.
PETER: Ethan, you broke the seal when you poured out the coffee, then you poured your father’s remains in there, and then you closed it. That didn’t reseal it.
ETHAN: That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard in my life. [starts sneezing]. Oh god. Shouldn’t have come here. I’m allergic to waffles.
