CHARACTERS & PROPS (match reference exactly)

HERO — Floral-Shirt Man: elegant, mature; neat side-parted slicked hair; amber square-frame sunglasses; long-sleeve watercolor-print shirt with sleeves rolled to the forearm; pure white high-waisted trousers; brown loafers. Throughout: languid, faintly indifferent, utterly unruffled — his actions are never affected by anything abnormal around him.

WAITRESS — Silver-Haired Woman: kindly elderly woman, silver hair in an updo; diner uniform of white short-sleeve shirt, orange tropical-print skirt, white apron with orange trim. Expression arc: gentle smile while walking steadily → eyes flying wide in shock at the collision → blank, confused head-turn at the end.

TRAY: white rectangular tray holding a cheeseburger, a chicken wrap, a grilled panini, a sunny-side-up egg, fresh orange juice with a blue-and-white striped straw, and fresh berries.
