331. Scenes from the Second Seat on the Right

Saturday, July 28th, 5:00pm
Ethyl (and Penny and Pooch)

 

Ethyl sits at the window. Penny and Pooch take the seat beside her.

Ethyl: What’s that you have in your purse? A rat?

Penny: No, this is Pooch. Isn’t she cute? (makes baby talk at dog)

Ethyl: Looks like a scraggly little rodent to me.

Penny: (moves purse as far away from Ethyl as possible) Don’t say that to Pooch! You’ll give her a complex!

Ethyl: Are you nuts? Do you have any idea how stupid you sound? It’s a dog. It doesn’t understand me. (to Pooch) You’re ugly and your mistress is an indescribable idiot.

Penny stands and walks away, apologizing to Pooch as she goes.

Ethyl: (calling after her) And stop dressing your rat in colours that match yours! It makes you look like your rat’s raccoon bitch!

221. Scenes from the Second Seat on the Right

Monday, April 9th, 5:00pm
Ethyl and Betty (and Yuka and Asako)

 

Ethyl: You see those tarts over there?

Betty: (stage whispers) Mom, they can hear you.

Ethyl: That doesn’t matter; they don’t understand me.

Betty: (stage whispers) Just because they’re from a different country doesn’t mean they don’t speak English.

Ethyl: Pfft. Listen to ’em! They’re speaking some Arab language. Couple of sluts.

Betty: (stage whispers) MOM!

Yuka and Asako stand.

Yuka: (to Ethyl as she passes on the way to the door) You’re a very rude lady.

Ethyl: Hey! You can’t talk to me like that!

Betty: (as Yuka and Asako disembark) Well, you weren’t very nice to them.

Ethyl: She called me rude in English! At least I didn’t call them sluts in their language!

Ethyl: You look like a whore.

Jade: How … dare you!

Ethyl: You’re off to get paid for a man’s pleasure, aren’t you? Look at the way you’re dressed.

Jade: It’s a skirt and blouse! I’m going to visit my mom.

Ethyl: Liar!

Jade: (stands) Lady, you need to keep your thoughts to yourself.

Ethyl: (smiles sweetly) Just kidding.

Jade: (sits and crosses her arms) Hmph.
