Part 2 By Alisa Rosenthal!
GLEN
Help.
MARGARET
What’s wrong?
GLEN
It’s... I... I can’t get this dress off.
MARGARET
Oh... kay....
GLEN
Can you... come in here and help me get it off?
MARGARET
Seriously?
(GLEN whimpers)
MARGARET (cont)
Fine.
(MARGARET goes in the dressing room)
MARGARET (cont)
Ok,
ok, I know, I know, shh shh, it’ll be ok. Just... keep your arms
straight up, and wiggle your head a bit. Good, good, there you go.
(GLEN gets the dress off)
GLEN
I didn’t even like it that much.
MARGARET
Well no, not after that.
GLEN
Oh my god.
MARGARET
What?
GLEN
Look at what it did to my back.
(GLEN turns around to expose a huge cut down her back.)
MARGARET
Oh my god! The dress did that??
GLEN
Well I didn’t have that before I got here!
MARGARET
That’s weird.
GLEN
I know. Damn exposed zippers.
MARGARET
No, it’s really weird.
GLEN
Um, sure.
MARGARET
Because I have that same cut on my back.
GLEN
Did you try on this dress too? I think it’s just made shitty.
MARGARET
No... I just woke up and had it.
GLEN
Seriously?
MARGARET
I think I just somehow scratched myself in my sleep. I guess.
GLEN
Have you scratched yourself... like that... in your sleep before?
MARGARET
I think so. But not in years.
GLEN
Oh... I’m sorry. We don’t have to talk about this.
(MARGARET starts to take off her dress to show her scratch when SANDY knocks on the door.)
SANDY
Hey - are there two people in there?
GLEN and MARGARET
No. (Beat.) Dammit.
SANDY
There can only be one person in there at a time.
GLEN
We’re almost done.
SANDY
Fine, just, put your clothes and like... just please don’t make me have to open the door. It’s... never cool for me.
(MARGARET collects herself. They both come out.)
SANDY (cont)
Glen??
GLEN
Stephanie?
SANDY
Sandy.
GLEN
Sandy! Holy crap, how are you?
SANDY
Good. Working retail, ha. I have a son!
GLEN
Get out! That’s crazy weird!
SANDY
Is it? I think it’s beautiful.
MARGARET
I’m... going to wait outside.
