00:00:01.560 --> 00:00:03.450 align:middle line:90%
Act Two, Scene Two.

00:00:03.450 --> 00:00:05.280 align:middle line:84%
And the setting
is a dinner party,

00:00:05.280 --> 00:00:08.070 align:middle line:84%
and each player has a wine
glass or champagne flute.

00:00:08.070 --> 00:00:10.290 align:middle line:84%
There are various
snacks on the table.

00:00:10.290 --> 00:00:12.480 align:middle line:84%
But players enter from
downstage right in line

00:00:12.480 --> 00:00:14.910 align:middle line:84%
up in a loose
circle center stage.

00:00:14.910 --> 00:00:18.300 align:middle line:84%
The rock kicker is singing
Faith Evans mournfully,

00:00:18.300 --> 00:00:20.520 align:middle line:90%
rocking to an imagined beat.

00:00:20.520 --> 00:00:25.680 align:middle line:84%
(SINGING) "You still love me
every day, love has gone away."

00:00:25.680 --> 00:00:28.210 align:middle line:84%
And the shit talker is
smoking hookah and says,

00:00:28.210 --> 00:00:29.063 align:middle line:90%
"Congratulations.

00:00:29.063 --> 00:00:31.230 align:middle line:84%
You done slapped the person
who told you that shit."

00:00:31.230 --> 00:00:32.250 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHTER]

00:00:32.250 --> 00:00:34.500 align:middle line:84%
And the mathematician says,
"It's a microbe trick.

00:00:34.500 --> 00:00:35.550 align:middle line:90%
I made up an equation!"

00:00:35.550 --> 00:00:37.890 align:middle line:84%
And the rock paper says,
(SINGING) "Can't you hear me?

00:00:37.890 --> 00:00:40.770 align:middle line:84%
[HUMMING] Not what
love's about."

00:00:40.770 --> 00:00:42.420 align:middle line:84%
And the shit talker
says, "Oranges

00:00:42.420 --> 00:00:44.610 align:middle line:90%
don't come from apple trees."

00:00:44.610 --> 00:00:47.670 align:middle line:84%
And the mathematician takes
off glasses, cleans them slowly

00:00:47.670 --> 00:00:48.870 align:middle line:90%
with a soft cloth.

00:00:48.870 --> 00:00:50.580 align:middle line:84%
And the rock kicker
says, (SINGING)

00:00:50.580 --> 00:00:51.810 align:middle line:90%
"You let me walk around.

00:00:51.810 --> 00:00:52.800 align:middle line:90%
Mm-hmm.

00:00:52.800 --> 00:00:54.750 align:middle line:90%
It's all right."

00:00:54.750 --> 00:00:59.250 align:middle line:84%
And then they pause for a
choir of pre-rehearsed members

00:00:59.250 --> 00:01:01.710 align:middle line:84%
of the audience to
sing the refrain.

00:01:01.710 --> 00:01:06.920 align:middle line:84%
(SINGING) "I remember the
way--" nobody knows the song?

00:01:06.920 --> 00:01:07.700 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHTER]

00:01:07.700 --> 00:01:10.350 align:middle line:90%
(SINGING)"You used to love me."

00:01:10.350 --> 00:01:11.580 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHTER]

00:01:11.580 --> 00:01:13.620 align:middle line:84%
And then the shit
talker says, "Amen.

00:01:13.620 --> 00:01:14.445 align:middle line:90%
Praise Barack."

00:01:14.445 --> 00:01:15.090 align:middle line:90%
Yeah.

00:01:15.090 --> 00:01:17.250 align:middle line:84%
And several pre-rehearsed
members of the audience

00:01:17.250 --> 00:01:19.105 align:middle line:90%
also shout, "Praise him!"

00:01:19.105 --> 00:01:21.480 align:middle line:84%
And the mathematician takes
out a huge calculator, starts

00:01:21.480 --> 00:01:24.390 align:middle line:84%
furiously making calculations,
and then the light's

00:01:24.390 --> 00:01:26.070 align:middle line:90%
flayed in the nearest exit.

00:01:26.070 --> 00:01:27.500 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHTER]

00:01:27.500 --> 00:01:28.000 align:middle line:90%
