Jinx It is, isn't it? Too bad it's lost on the rest of us.
Mojito? [Offers her his drink]
Jinx Giacinta Johnson. My friends call me "Jinx".
Jinx Born on Friday the 13th.
Do you believe in bad luck?
Jinx Let's just say my relationships don't seem to last.
I know the feeling. [hears the loud, raucous group at a nearby table] The predators usually appear at sunset.
Jinx And why is that?
It's when their prey comes out to drink. [Jinx tries a sip of Bond's mojito] Too strong for you?
Jinx I could learn to like it...if I had the time.
How much time do you have?
Jinx Until dawn. How about you?
Oh, I'm just here for the birds. [shows his binoculars & bird-watching book] Ornithologist.
Ornithologist, huh? Wow. Now there's a mouthful. So, I guess you'll be busy with owls tonight, huh?
No owls on Los Organos; nothing to see until the morning...not out there, anyway.
Jinx So, what do predators do...when the sun goes down?
They feast...like there's no tomorrow.
