Everybody died (Continued 2)

LUCY:     They all died in the Japanese bombing of Manila! Yes, it's true. Wallstreet died first, and then--

HARRY:     Oh, please spare me the details, Lucy. I want to remember Washington and his family at their best.

LUCY:     (leading)   Of course. His generosity is what we remember best. He shared everything with Wang.

HARRY:     If Washington were alive today, it would have given him immense pleasure to share his twenty-five million dollars with all of you.

LUCY:     (thunderstruck)   Twenty-five million dollars?

HARRY:     Yes. It's supposed to be a gift to his son, but, I reckon he'd be happy that his brother would be the beneficiary of it all.

Lucy is speechless for a long time. She can't believe what she just heard. She starts to cry, for real this time. Almost laughing.

LUCY:     [Husband, we are twenty-five million dollars richer now.]

Wang faints and falls from his chair. Harry, Dennis and the servant frantically attend to him. Lucy grabs Harry's glass of water and pours what remains in it on her husband's face. Wang recovers quickly and goes back to his seat like a zombie.
