Elijah glances at the BUSINESS MAN standing next to him and then back to the sketch.
ELIJAH
It's a classic depiction of good versus evil. Notice the square jaw of Slayer - common in most comic book heroes. And the slightly disproportionate size of Jaguaro's body to his head. This again is common, but only in villains... The thing to notice about this piece... The thing that makes it very, very special... is its realistic depiction of its figures. When the characters eventually made it into the magazine they were exaggerated... as always happens.(beat) This is vintage.
The business man rubs his face. Gazes at the sketch. Beat.
BUSINESS MAN
Wrap it up.
ELIJAH
You've made a considerably wise decision.
Elijah starts to the back of the store which we now see is some type of art gallery where all the framed pictures are images and sketches from comic books.
BUSINESS MAN
My kid's gonna go berserk.
Elijah jams his walking stick into the extra thick carpet and stops. He turns.
ELIJAH
Once again please?
BUSINESS MAN
My son Jeb. It's a gift for him.
ELIJAH
How old is Jeb?
BUSINESS MAN
Four.
ELIJAH
No.
Elijah starts back to the businessman shaking his head strongly.
ELIJAH
No, no, no, no no... You need to go now.
BUSINESS MAN
What did I say?
ELIJAH
Do you see any Telletubbies around here?... Do you see a slender plastic tag clipped to my shirt with my name printed on it?... Do you see a little Asian child with a blank expression sitting outside in a mechanical helicopter that shakes when you put a quarter in it?... No?... Well that's what you see at a toy store? Any you must think this is a toy store, cause
you're in here shopping for an infant named Jeb. One of us has made a gross error and wasted the other person's valuable time...
Elijah's eyes pierce through the shaken man.
ELIJAH
This is an art gallery my friend.
This is piece of art...
