Hannah and Her Sisters Page #5

LEE:

(interrupting, to Hannah)

I need an antihistamine. Mom

thinks she's feeling her asthma,

and so...

HANNAH:

(overlapping)

Ohh?

HOLLY:

(overlapping, lighting

a cigarette)

Uh-oh.

LEE:

(continuing)

...before she starts turning into

Camille...

(laughing)

HOLLY:

(overlapping)

Yeah, Mom's Camille when she gets

up in the morning.

LEE:

(turning to Holly)

At least she isn't drinking. Did

you notice?

HOLLY:

(nodding)

Mm-hm.

HANNAH:

(turning to look at

her sisters, laughing)

Doesn't she look great in that new

dress?

HOLLY:

(nodding)

Yeah.

LEE:

(nodding)

Yeah.

The sisters all talk at once; Hannah is still working at the

sink.

HANNAH:

Don't you think she does?

HOLLY:

She really does, though.

LEE:

(turning towards the sink)

Yeah, she knows it, too, 'cause

she's flirting with all the men here.

HOLLY:

(puffing on her cigarette)

God.

HANNAH:

(scooping out some

cantaloupe seeds)

Maybe when she's eighty, she'll

stop straightening her garter belt

when there's a guy around.

HOLLY:

(to Lee, laughing)

I should get a garter belt.

LEE:

(laughing)

Yeah.

HOLLY:

(looking down at herself)

Get a garter belt...

(sipping her drink)

Get a garter belt and flirt.

LEE:

(laughing, to Hannah)

Where are the antihistamines?

HANNAH:

Oh, I don-- Ask Elliot for that.

Uh, he's got them somewhere.

LEE:

(nodding)

Okay.

Lee leaves the kitchen. Holly, puffing on her cigarette,

watches her go.
