And so it was that RC the STORYTELLER was intrigued by the pin design Happy Barista / Uber Driver KIMBA unveiled — agreeing to FIELD TEST plus be a sounding board. Let’s follow along to see WHAT. HAPPENS. NEXT. –The Gang.
FADE IN:
EXT. WEST CLIFF
RC the GREMLIN / STORYTELLER has taken on the role of unconditional listener as KIMBA the Happy Barista / Uber Driver describes how she conjured up the “Yosh! Westside” pin. However, their “walk-feets” excursion was disrupted by the persistent pinging of Kimba’s mobile.
RC points to a shady spot and motions for her to flip-open her phone and deal with it.
Giving her some space, he studies sea animals in the distance. However, sensing a disturbance in the Force, he redirects his attention.
RC THE GREMLIN
Uh… You okay, my friend?
KIMBA
Crap! I did it again…
RC THE GREMLIN
Yes…?
KIMBA
I’m supposed to give Auntie a ride. Totally spaced…
RC THE GREMLIN
Well, its understandable. Just… hurry along and when Auntie’s not looking, slip one of those fine pins into her pocket or pack or purse… whatever she’s carrying.
…It’ll get her curious and then you can share some of what you shared with me… another set of ears… Plus… looping her in may score you an empathy card.

KIMBA
A what?
Looping in Auntie is a smart move…
RC THE GREMLIN
Cut ya some slack… Bigger PLUS… or as we say in our world PLUS+ is that she may enjoy knowing more about you and what you’re doing… pursuing… Could be a source of joy for both of you actually and that would be way cool!
KIMBA
Ah! Yeah! Good call…
As he’s talking, they’ve already made a beeline for Swift Street to hurriedly get to Kimba’s Uber mobile. The walk turns into a light jog.
RC looks up and smiles. On the opposite side of the street just so happens to be former Suit KATIE.
RC THE GREMLIN
Check it out…
KIMBA
You go. Tell he what my deal is and that I’ll catch you guys later.
RC THE GREMLIN
And you… follow the GP… Share with Auntie. Cool as a cucumber…
KIMBA
Copy that…
She turns and continues her jog while he calls out some final counsel.
RC THE GREMLIN
Breathe and… just breathe. And remember… What will be WILL be.
Somehow the message gets through as a thumbs up acknowledgment is seen.
RC THE GREMLIN
[to himself]
Yeah… go have fun with Auntie…
Redirecting his attention to Ms Katie, he remarks.
RC THE GREMLIN
That’s not the look of someone who played beach golf. Something’s up…
RC ponders his approach (selecting a diagonal street crossing as engage, NOT-Startle is the goal).
Even then, Katie is so in her own world that he literally bumps her.
RC THE GREMLIN
Whoopsie! My bad…
The sound of RC’s voice seems to awaken her… diverting her attention BACK to the present. She smiles.
KATIE
Oh… Hey you…!
RC THE GREMLIN
Greetings, Ms Speedy! Where ya heading?
KATIE
Just out for a WALK FEETS break…
He gives her a look.
RC THE GREMLIN
Seems to me… Something’s got ya, eh?
KATIE
Yeah… I’m looping a bit** so…
RC THE GREMLIN
…Time to… Yeah, I get it.
**What we’re not seeing is Katie visualizing how SHE’d set up the bread workshop.
Strategist Katie…
But that vision is also intermingling with her current concerns of (a) keeping her sourdough starter “alive”, and (b) how to port what she learned to the home environment to actually bake luscious boules of bread –as lots of gaps in knowledge… acknowledged.
Boules of joy…
We are keeping tabs on our former Suit and that’s how we know these thing. Now let’s continue the story. -LPs
RC THE GREMLIN
Maybe, yes…?
Points towards the water. Katie nods. Before they get going, RC motions to Katie’s SATCHEL-PAK.
RC THE GREMLIN
Before I forget.
He swiftly pins one of Kimba’s “YOSH! WESTSIDE” creations onto her PAK.
Eye-catching…
KATIE
What the…?
He points to his PAK where the pin is placed in the same identical spot.
She smiles.
RC THE GREMLIN
Cool, right?
KATIE
Yeah… a Smile-inducer for sure!
RC THE GREMLIN
Thought so.
KATIE
Where’d you get…?
RC switches to his STORYTELLER persona.
RC THE STORYTELLER
A Tale for you I have. I’m out of practice… on hiatus from “@TheSEA” so… It’ll be good to catch you up, as we walk…
And just like that “SNAPS FINGERS”, Katie’s mood shifts and there’s extra bounce in her step.
KATIE
Whenever you’re ready, pal. All ears I am.
RC THE STORYTELLER
Yup! … Yosh! Indeed!!
FADE OUT.
That’s a Wrap…
And so it was that having just learned (absorbed) Kimba’s story, RC had the opportunity to share it straight-away with Katie.
STAY TUNED to find out WHAT. HAPPENS. NEXT.
