Characters:
JANE (30s, bubbly, tipsy)
BARBIE (30s, sober)
Setting:
Jane’s apartment. It is dimly lit. Jane sits on her couch, sipping a glass of wine, an empty bottle stands on a cocktail table. Barbie slides in next to her.
Dialogue:
BARBIE
(concerned)
I was worried when you called. And gosh, you look a little woozy. Like three sheets to the wind. What's going on? Did someone die?
JANE
This guy took me to a play and explained to me everything that was happening on stage. I finally told him to shut-up. The people around us applauded.
BARBIE
(raises an eyebrow)
Why did you ever date this jerk?
JANE
Well, he’s a friend of my cousin.
BARBIE
This guy sounds like a real loser.
JANE
But you know what was really funny? When he drove up to my house, it took him five tries to parallel park.
BARBIE
What did you say?
JANE
(giggles)
I said I can’t date someone who can’t parallel park. And jumped out of the car.
BARBIE
Well, Jane, let’s drink to putting that male chauvinist in his place.
