An old lady who looks like that tiny gay man from Will and Grace. (Fig. 2)


A middle age woman who looked like Precious (based on the novel Push
by Sapphire), if Precious (based on the novel Push by Sapphire) were
old, blind, angry and possibly mentally ill. (Photo not found)


Aaaaaand scene...


Int. M15 bus - Night

Angry Precious (based on the novel Push by Sapphire) boards the bus
and staggers to the handicapped seats. The two annoying girls don't
move to give her enough room, but to their credit they do at least try
to assist her in sitting. She yells at them for their efforts.

So from a few rows away, Angry Will & Grace Lady yells at the girls to
move. They scoot down. Angry Precious (based on the novel Push by
Sapphire) continues to grumble/talk to her demons. Angry Will & Grace
Lady shakes in head in that judgmental "what is the world coming to"
way.

A few stops later Angry Precious (based on the novel Push by Sapphire)
decides to relocate - walking stick a-whacking into everyone down the
aisle. Angry Will & Grace Lady goes to be the hero and show those
whipper-snappers how it's done by standing up to help Angry Precious
(based on the novel Push by Sapphire) to her new seat.

DENIED! Angry Precious (based on the novel Push by Sapphire) bats her
down and yells at her too, then goes grumbling on her way, not even
realizing the comeuppance she served.
