Yvonne and Sarah
Yvonne: I think Quinn’s fooling around on me.
Sarah: No way!
Yvonne: (nods) He came home yesterday with enough paint to do the whole house.
Sarah: So?
Yvonne: Three-quarters of the rooms are wallpapered.
Sarah: Hmm. I’d keep an eye on him if I were you.

Quinn and Serge
Serge: Glad you came last night?
Quinn: (sighs) Yeah I guess.
Serge: Listen, bro. You got nothing to feel guilty about. It was just a little window shopping.
Quinn: Yvonne wouldn’t agree.
Serge: (shrugs) So don’t tell her.
Quinn stands.
Serge: Hey, where are you going? This isn’t your stop.
Quinn: No, but I’ve gotta get off. The paint store’s right there.
Serge: (laughs) Pussy.

Quinn and Serge
Serge: You up for a game of poker Friday night?
Quinn: No, man. I’m too tired.
Serge: Wife still on your case about painting the kitchen?
Quinn: I wish that’s all it was. Yvonne’s just friggin’ nuts since she’s been pregnant.
Serge: You should come to the game. Be a good way to escape.
Quinn snorts.
Serge: I got some cute honeys coming over.
Quinn: (regards him, thinking) I’ll let you know if I can get away.

Quinn and Yvonne
Quinn: Now that you’ve been a couple of days without morning sickness, where do you want to eat on Saturday night?
Yvonne: I’d really like a steak … if that’s what you want.
Quinn: Sure. (smiles and takes her hand) I think we’re going to be okay, don’t you?
Yvonne: Yeah. Especially now my mother’s out of the hospital. I think the psychiatrist was a good idea. Thanks for arranging it.
Quinn: Maybe when she sees the baby she’ll accept him for what he is, and not just a sign she’s getting old.
Yvonne: I hope so.
Quinn: You’re sure you want to go to this shop we’re going to? With the baby and all?
Yvonne: I think so. It’ll be nice to have all the equipment for after the movie Friday night. You’ll be taking notes, right?
Quinn: Of course. (reaches into pocket) Oh, here. (hands her a paper) I got my collar size.
Yvonne: (smiles and takes the paper) Thank you Mr. Grey.
Quinn: My pleasure, Mrs. Grey.

Yvonne and Quinn
Quinn: Are you nervous?
Yvonne: Of course. It’s not every day I get to tell my parents I’m pregnant over turkey dinner.
Quinn: Well, we were going to have to tell them eventually.
Yvonne: (stares at him) Do you have any idea how hard it’s going to be telling my mother she’s going to be a grandmother? She’ll probably drop dead in the stuffing.
Quinn: She’s really that obsessed about getting old?
Yvonne: You’ve met my mother, right?
Quinn: Yeah. Do you want me to tell your dad and then he can tell her after we’ve left?
Yvonne: That’s the coward’s way out.
They stare at each other for three seconds.
Both: Let’s do it.
Next stop: Tuesday, January 2nd, 7:00pm

Quinn and Yvonne
Yvonne: I hope you don’t think I’m going to talk to you tonight.
Quinn: I don’t expect …
Yvonne: Of course not. That’s why we’re going to a restaurant instead of staying home for Thanksgiving dinner.
Quinn: But you …
Yvonne: I know. I know I burned the turkey last year. You don’t have to rub it in. I was willing to try again but nooo, we have to go to a restaurant because you don’t trust me! Admit it!
Quinn: I …
Yvonne: Don’t talk to me. I’m not talking to you.
Quinn looks out the window.
Yvonne: Don’t pout.
Quinn: I’m not …
Yvonne: Yes you are. I can tell by the way you’re looking out the window.
Quinn: What the …
Yvonne: (holds up palm) Don’t talk to me. And don’t pout. Let’s just get there and get this over with.
Quinn: (looks up to the front of the bus) It’s …
Yvonne: What part of “don’t talk to me” didn’t you understand?
Quinn: But …
Yvonne: Ugh! I’ve had enough of this. I’m walking the rest of the way. (gets up)
Quinn: (calls to her as she’s walking down the aisle) You’ll have to anyway! We just passed the stop!
