Jamarius enters wearing an overcoat and carrying a small package.

JAMARIUS

Yoo-hoo? Anyone home?

BRYSON

(unseen voice from the porch)

Over here.

JAMARIUS

Mr. Bryson? Are you off your rocker?

BRYSON

No.

(pulls off the blankets from the rocking chair he’s on)

I’m on my rocker.

JAMARIUS

It’s forty degrees!

BRYSON

I was going to guess thirty-seven.

JAMARIUS

What in God’s creation are you doing out here?

BRYSON

I told myself I’d stay out here until Hell freezes over. Thought I only had five degrees to go, but now I find out it was more like eight.

JAMARIUS

Use your weather app thingy.

BRYSON

Can’t. Internet and cell service were turned off last month.

JAMARIUS

Well, cheer up ‘cause I have a special delivery for you.

Jamarius hands Bryson the small box.

BRYSON

I didn’t order anything.
