Camera # 3: The kitchen. Principal Target # 1 stands on the tiles. She is clad in a lilac suit, a cream blouse with a ribbon at the throat, and chunky-heeled lace-up shoes. She extracts a glass jug from a small electric appliance. She pours liquid (black, presumably coffee) into a cup. The cup is white with a pink floral motif on its side and a scroll-shaped handle. Steam rises from the cup.
Target turns to the left and places cup on a surface, situated just outside frame. Ah, it is a tray. Lifts tray and exits frame left.
Switch to camera # 2 (living room). Target enters frame right, puts tray on table, goes to sideboard, extracts cloth placemat, arranges placemat on table top, places saucer on placemat, places steaming cup atop saucer, places plate on placemat, places ryvita atop plate, pulls out chair, extracts cloth napkin from sideboard, seats self on chair, spreads napkin on lap.
Five minutes of chewing and slurping.
