SCENE 82
SCENE 82-INT.-A brand-new champagne Jaguar. Day.
A beautiful middle-aged woman who seems to be pretty far gone
is driving the Jag. She is drinking a bottle of vintage Cabernet
Sauvignon. "The Rose" by Bette Midler is playing on the radio.
Tears are streaming from the woman's eyes as she sings along with
the song. All of a sudden she is right on the bumper of the Suburban
in front of her. Instinctively, she swerves hard to the right. Papaw
is walking down the sidewalk in front of Caesar's Palace. The woman's
Jaguar jumps the sidewalk and mows Papaw down.
