Mom Entrance to Party Leaving Flashcards
GINA: I was a nervous wreck before I married Colin. Relax.
Mom, just sit on the bench and relax.
TERRY: Are we pretty close to beginning?
Just give me two minutes and we’re all systems go.
MAY: Just give me two minutes and we’re all systems go.
LIONEL: May?
Not now, Lionel. There are a thousand details to take care of. Here, put this on.
GINA: Indeed he is. Lionel Stark, this is my husband, Colin Willis.
Gina! Cut the small talk, I need you.
TERRY: May? Gina? Betty?
Ready.
LIONEL: Wait just a minute. Aren’t we rushing things just a bit here?
Shhhh, Lionel, be patient.
TERRY: This will make a swell wedding picture.
Terry?
TERRY: Yes?
The ceremony?
TERRY: … speak now or forever hold his peace.
LIONEL: A-hem.
Lionel. Shhh.
LIONEL: Errr… Yes, I do.
Don’t say “I do” yet, wait until he asks the question!
BETTY: He’s got a lot going on up there.
One of the essential ingredients in terrorism is the element of surprise.
LIONEL: Is this a joke?
Lionel, marriage isn’t a joke. To anyone.
LIONEL: These aren’t last minute doubts. These are first minute doubts.
I see. So you’re saying you don’t want to get married?
MAY: … don’t want to get married?
LIONEL: Right.
You’re the victim. You don’t have a choice.
BETTY: A bum. I knew he was a bum from the start.
Mom, please.
GINA: Ma, do you ever listen to yourself?
BETTY: Yes.
Lionel’s right. Would all of you just go away for a while?
