Woman about 50: See my new phone Mama?
Mama: What is that a picture of?
Woman about 50: Starry Night.
Mama: Starry what?
Woman about 50: Starry Night. It’s a famous painting Mama.
Mama: Oh.
Woman about 50: Look.
Mama: That is a good picture of Jimmy.
Woman about 50: Here.
Mama: Is that Thelma?
Woman about 50: Yes, that’s Thelma. Here’s your picture Mama.
Mama: Shhh… I never did like that picture.
Woman about 50: When you call me this your picture comes up on the screen.
Mama: (irritated) I never did like that picture.
