This is what 98, going on 54, looks like
Margie: Do you know when my boys are coming to see me?
Kendall: I think they’re both coming for your birthday in September.
M: How old am I?
K: You’ll be 98.
M: Oh no! Really? I don’t feel that old!
K: How old do you feel?
M: Fifty-four.
K: Really? What does fifty-four look like? Wait, let me get the camera out of the bag. (Pause.) Now.
M: What was the question?
K: What does fifty-four look like?
M: Like this. Like perfection. Top of your game. Like everything you ever waited for, here it is. This is who you are.
