" Meanwhile back at Maggie’s house, Arlene Wilken has been removing most of her late husband’s things. It’s been over a year and Maggie still doesn’t want to let anything go. Arlene likes to smell his cologne. First she gave away all the pants because pants mean less than shirts, but during the past few days she has been giving the shirts away as well. On the back of her bedroom door she keeps two shirts that he hung there in the days before he killed himself. It’s remarkable that the smell of him still lingers, and this makes Arlene think even more that he wasn’t ready to go. She knows she can leave the last two shirts there because the door is always open, the shirts to the wall, so nobody sees them but her. What would you like for your two sides? Maggie says to a man in a cap and a woman whose sweater has a giant cat hand-stitched to the back. The man has a sullen tone. He says, Garden salad with diced onions. "
