More coversation

This dialogue only, conversation story I am on for a Writing Magazine competition ia taking a bit of a turn. Let me
list the ideas, including the new ones.
1 was the conversation in the car going somewhere. It needs to come to a conclusion somehow and I can’t see anything other than after the moaning about the people – How nice to see you. which would make it a character study, not a story.
2 Was a will reading where two women had a go sat each other and one found she was pregnant. For me, that would need to have testing and the results outside dialogue.
3 Where to scatter ashes will come to a decision and is a real possibility. Why not here, why not there, then in the end the decision that meets the needs of wife, son and daughter.
4 was two wives after his funeral. Would they be friends? The elder has a common accent and but her daughter is a professor. The younger one has a son who is being taught by the professor. Lots of options as to where that can go but not the old falling in love to find they are brother and sister.
5 would be the funeral but of a girl or boy who has committed suicide after seeking advice from the church. A talk between mother and father and the vicar. The church is more about power than love debate. How would it end though?
6 two old sweethearts, widow and widower, meet and talk. Will they get together or has he arranged a meeeting for something more sinister?
7 they are buying a carpet, maybe, and argue. Is this an apology for some misdeed. Can we sort out a rift between the husband and wife?

3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 all have possibilities and even when I’ve written the competition entry the others will work.
