JORDEE
I Would teach him the Wonder Wall

RACHEL
I hate when your phone says
retrieving text, and the suspense
is killing you, but then it just
says Call me.
(Rachel hops off
the bed and walks
to the bathroom) |
|
|
|
RACHEL
(Returning from

Our bathroom either smells like
fixatives, or intense hairspray. |
|
|

to die. |

|
|
|
MAMMA
A pool with his family having a
party on the outside of the pool.
(blushes) |
|
|
|
GRACIE
How bout the time his super
conservative grandparents were
coming over, and he convinced me
we had enough time. Then they
called repeatedly to say they
didnt know where to park, and he
had to call one of his man-clan
members to bring food and act like
we were just playing video games. |
|
|
Laughter |
|
|
GRACIE
Then they said they didnt like me
cause i was wearing a tank top. |
|
|
5.
|
|
AUDREY
Wow. Oh i had and almost near
death experiance. My stepDad drove
by boyfriends car when we were
making out and i thought i was
going to get caught cause he
stopped the car behind us then
reversed and then kept going. |
|
|
|
MAMMA
I broke the Shower towel rack.
that should be enough said. I
handed it to him cause it was
dark, and he tossed the broken
pieces over the top of the shower
curtain. |
|
|
Enter Kate and Rachel |
|
|
GRACIE
We will continue this conversation
later. |
|
|
|
MAMMA
I bet kate can show us up. |
|
|
|
|
|
GRACIE
Good Morning, Welcome to the
conversation. |
|
|
|
GRACIE
yea one time my dad came up when
we were up in my room, and i heard
my dad in his work boots coming up
the stairs and Adam books it into
the closet. |
|
|
LAUGHTER |
|
|
GRACIE
Thats like when i came home from
getting my tattoo and my dad
patted me on the back. The syran
wrap crinckeled and i flinched,
and was like "OK good night dad!"
and ran away. |
|
|
|
RACHEL
There is no Juice left. (looks
down at Gracie) Gracie! |
|
|
|
|
|
JORDEE
(Enter Jordee)
So i walked up to the bitch and i
was like Numa-Numa- Hey |
|
|
6.
|
|
AUDREY
That reminds me of my friend who
would say "so i was talking to
whats her tits". |
|
|
|
JORDEE
(picks up brush) What happened to
this brush? |
|
|
|
|
|
JORDEE
(Sniffs brush)
Its like cum. |
|
|
|
GRACIE
Does your cum smell like Gesso? |
|
|
|
JORDEE
well when your diet consists of
cheese fries, garlic salt, and A1
sauce, your cum smells pretty
weird. And then wrap it all in
bacon cause that apparently makes
everything fancy. Wrap a steak in
bacon and it becomes Filet man
gone. |
|
|
Jordee exits |
|
|
KATE
Okay I'm going to bed, I have a
lot to do tomorrow. |
|
|
|
GRACIE
Aw so early Kate dearest? |
|
|
|
KATE
Well I've done all the homework I
can except the homework that I
need to do. |
|
|
|
GRACIE
(and everyone)
K night! |
|
|
Kate exits |
|
|
RACHEL
Why does my bed always go to
smithereens when Kate comes over? |
|
|
Sara is making image transfers in a book and rubbing away
diligently at the paper. |
|
|
SARA
Ugh my fingers are raw from this! |
|
|
|
|
7.
|
Mamma begins work on a page, then slowly falls asleep on the
bed. Sara slowly re-acquires the book and continues
working. |
|
|
SARA
Oh well I just have thirty minutes
more on this. |
|
|
|
GRACIE
I hate this project, everything I
try to fix breaks something else! |
|
|
|
|
|
GRACIE
What? What happened? |
|
|
|
RACHEL
My computer's about to die! Its
plugged in, I don't understand. |
|
|
Rachel leaps from the bed and begins examining the cord. |
|
|
GRACIE
Check the plug, you may have blew
the outlet. We have like
thousands of watts between the two
of us. |
|
|
|
SARA
Don't explode anything, or melt a
lamp like Andrew did. I'm going
to bed. |
|
|
Sara gathers her things and gently awakens Mamma. |
|
|
MAMMA
(sleepily)
Thanks Gracie, good luck on your
project! Good night. |
|
|
|
|
Exit Sara and Mamma. Audrey swiftly follows. |

Rachel relocates to the chair. |

FADE OUT. |
