Scene 1:
Beginning:
Dead father wakes up, is now in Heaven, and he is very confused. He stands up and looks around wondering where he is.
*Voice speaks* : Peterson we have been waiting for you. I am sorry to inform you, but Your’e dead, Welcome to Heaven!
Dead Father: Who’s there! Where am I?
Dead Father(Peterson):
(*wonders around worries and touches hair*)
M-My hair (*long pause* )...Its back!
(*looks down and sees family and shouts*) HONEY! KIDS! ITS ME! PAPA!! (*pause*) HELLO! IM RIGHT HERE! (*sigh*) Can’t they here me?...Oh…Everything is gone... I guess I really am dead.
Scene 2:
--------At home--------
Grace:( head looks back, body walks forward) Mom, I’m ok. I’ll just go to check Caroline. I believe she’s crying right now.
Grace: Knock~Knock~ I’m coming. (knocks the door, slightly opens the door and enters)
----the lights are off----
In the dream they would chase after him but never reach him.
Mrs. Ruiz, the family’s Cuban neighbor, is hosting her large extended family for a celebration with blaring rumba music. Caroline and Grace observe the proceedings from a window. Caroline tells Grace that last month Mrs. Ruiz’s son was killed trying to hijack a plane in Havana so he could fly it to Miami.
Caroline buys her wedding dress from Goodwill, mom decides to wear a pink gown, and Grace will wear a green suit.
Her father got a visa by entering into a fake marriage with a widow leaving Haiti for America. In exchange for some money, the woman took his last name. A few years after arriving stateside, Grace’s father divorced the widow and sent for mom and Grace.
They discuss how Hermine and her husband always feared Caroline would settle for someone less than she deserved because of her missing forearm. That’s the real reason Hermine doesn’t approve of Eric: she thinks Caroline is afraid that no other man will come along.
Last thing, after marriaged, went to honeymoon, dad stood.
