He doesn't realized that he has chosen the seat and the newspaper of longtime regular, Eddie, who is a creature of habit.

Joe bites his tongue on Marlene's account and moves to the other table, leaving Eddie to read his beloved obituaries.From this awkward beginning, an unlikely friendship develops.
