Would you like some tea to go with your sugar?

Scene:
Sidewalk cafe, approximately teatime.

Actors:
2 girls - Grace and Vish
1 anonymous man with chubby red cheeks

Zoom into scene where 2 girls in summer dresses are chatting happily at said sidewalk cafe having English cream tea, speaking non-colonial English, peppered with 'la', 'lorr' and 'mah' suffixes, sometimes lowering their voices and then bursting out into peals of laughter.

One suddenly stops. Whispers to the other and points to direction of said anonymous man with chubby red cheeks. Eyes widen.

Now closeup scene of chubby red cheeked man sucking on sugar cubes and putting as many as 6 cubes into his tea, and then layering loads and loads of fluffy clotted cream and sweet strawberry jam onto tiny sultana scones.

Altogether now: "owh-mai-gawd!"
