Woman: Everyone's staring at me... I don't belong here! Alice: Why... it's the real estate lady! Missy, isn't it? Woman: Um.... do I know you? Alice: It's Alice! You once showed me and Elmont a pad! What are you doing at our soup kitchen? Woman: It's a long story... Alice: I'll bet it involves speculation, flips, sub-primes and defaults! Am I right? Woman: Pretty rich, huh? A year ago, I was organizing a charity ball FOR the homeless! Alice: How nice! Hear that, Elmont? A charity ball! For us! Elmont: No way! I never got an invitation! Woman: Well, not "for" you in that sense. Alice: How many senses are there? Elmont: Six! And you'll need 'em all to dumpster-dive! Let's go, young lady! Woman: Excuse me? Alice: No trouble at all - it's his way of giving back!

IMHO they try to live their lives as minimalists - expending no undue effort, and pretty much being satisfied with what they have. they also seem to be open to new experiences, but cautious.

Elwood is a breath of fresh air because he tells things like it is, without caring who you really are.

Have we “actually” met Missy before, or did it happen to Alice and Elmont “off camera?” Anybody got links to, or remember the story?
