OLIVER
So, what's yours about?

EFFY noisily slurps her blueberry slushie.

EFFY
People.

OLIVER
(confused)
Just... people?

EFFY nods as she gets up to throw out her empty cup. She returns and begins on the plate of garlic fries. OLIVER scrunches his eyebrows in confusion.

OLIVER
Ok? So, what is it called?

EFFY
Forty two.

OLIVER
Isn't there already a movie called that?

EFFY shakes her head.

EFFY
Mine is in roman numerals. So, technically, it's called XLII. It's the meaning of life.
