FADE IN:
INT. DINING ROOM. HOME. PLYMOUTH, MASSACHUSETTES - THANKSGIVING DAY
A FAMILY of six is gathered around the dining room table adorned with the cornucopia of Thanksgiving dinner.
The grandfather clock gently CHIMES three o'clock. As the MOTHER glances at anticipant faces,
MOTHER
He'll be here.
FATHER
He's late, Dorah.
DORAH
We won't start without him, Luther.
Furtive glances are exchanged.
LUTHER
(firmly)
He'd be the first to understand.
As Luther begins carving the turkey, Dorah SIGHS. Her DAUGHTER clasps her hand reassuringly.
DAUGHTER
He's been here every Thanksgiving, dad.
The door bell RINGS. Luther stops carving.
GRANDSON
He's here!
He and his sister run out of the dining room and return holding the hands of Native American, MASSASOIT.
All surround him excitedly and guide him to his place at the table.
GRANDDAUGHTER
We saved your chair, Great Sachem.
Massasoit nods, smiling. As he sits, he retrieves the ceremonial pipe, then lights it. He inhales and passes it to Luther who inhales then passes to it to Dorah who lightly inhales and returns it to Massasoit.
After snuffing the pipe, Massasoit sets it adjacent to his place setting. Ritualistically, each extends and holds the other's hand, heads bowed.
DORAH
We give thanks today for Your bounty of food and love.
ALL
(in unison)
Amen.
MASSASOIT
Aho.
FADE TO BLACK
