Variation 6 Flashcards
variation six (scene)
We should check the bags and then-
MAN: Meg!
What are you doing here?
OTHER MAN: Who is this loser?
It’s my ex-boyfriend. What do you want?
OTHER MAN: This is the guy you were talking abut? The guy with the licorice?
Yeah. What do you want Nick?
OTHER MAN: Maybe I need to make it buisness.
Don’t bother, he’s not worth it.
MAN: Who is this guy!?
He’s going to Howard too, we met at orientation. We’re taking the train together. Not that it’s any of your buisness.
MAN: Shut the hell up!
Brad! I told you he wasn’t worth it! Now please, just go and check the bags in.
OTHER MAN: Are you sure you’ll be ok?
I’m sure. Now just go.
OTHER MAN: What a dork. (he exits)
You are so pathetic. Six months, you don’t say a word about any of this. Don’t want to talk about it. Always changing the subject, always making jokes. And then last night, all of a sudden, it’s “I love you, I need you, I can’t live without you. Please don’t go.” How old are you? Everything in the world isn’t all about you or how you feel or what you need. Other people matter too. Other people matter too. Other people have feelings too. But you still don’t get that, do you?
