INT. MARIANNE’S LIVING ROOM - LATER

Eva is working on Marianne while she lies on her back.

Soothing music plays.

INT. MARIANNE’S LIVING ROOM - LATER

Eva is putting her table back together while Marianne wears

casual clothes and sits on the couch. They’re mid

conversation.

MARIANNE:

I’m dating this guy and he has no sense

of humor.

EVA:

Could be a deal breaker.

MARIANNE:

Right? I don’t know what to do because

he’s very sweet.

EVA:

Sweet can be good. Find someone else to

tell you jokes.

MARIANNE:

Are you married?

EVA:

Divorced. For ten years.

MARIANNE:

Are you guys still friends?

EVA:

Not really. We share a daughter. Other

than that it’s hard to believe I ever had

a laugh with the guy, let alone create a

child.

MARIANNE:

I know what you mean about your ex. We

have zero in common. I don’t know how I

ever had a real conversation with him.

EVA:

Crazy, isn’t it?

EXT. MARIANNE’S HOUSE - DAY

Eva is putting her massage table in her car while Marianne

clips herbs in her front yard.

MARIANNE:

I’ll call you really soon. This left

shoulder is still so tight.

EVA:

You ought to ice it tonight. And drink

lots of water. Stay hydrated.

MARIANNE:

I will. Thank you again. I’m so glad I

met you! Oh, want some chervil? I’m

drowning in it.

She hands her some herbs.

INT. EVA’S HOUSE/KITCHEN - DAY

Eva sits in her kitchen eating lunch, VIDEO CHATTING WITH

SARAH.

EVA:

What the Hell is chervil? She said she

was drowning in it.

SARAH:

An herb.

(in American accent)

An herb. How long have you known me?

EVA:

I can’t understand a goddamned thing you

ever say.

EVA (CONT’D)

The furniture was gorgeous. I wanted

everything in there.

INT. SARAH’S OFFICE - DAY

Sarah sits at her desk (in her therapy office) VIDEO

CHATTING.

EVA:

She has no cellulite.

ENOUGH SAID 12

SARAH:

How can that be?

EVA:

I don’t know! There’s nothing!

SARAH:

Anyway, Will said that some guy you met

at the party wants your number! Jason’s

friend I think.

Eva smiles, in spite of herself.

EVA:

But we both admitted we weren’t attracted

to each other.

(beat)

What should I do? He’s kind of fat.

SARAH:

He is?

EVA:

He’s got this big belly.

SARAH:

Oh, come on. You have nothing to lose.

EVA:

No, but he does. Ha Ha Ha.

Sarah just stares at her. Suddenly Eva notices the little

light on the wall go on behind Sarah.

EVA (CONT’D)

Your patient just arrived.

(beat)

What if you never went out there. Would

they just - (motions to shoot herself)?

Oh, was that inappropriate?

EXT. TRAGICALLY HIP RESTAURANT - NIGHT

TWELVE PEOPLE wait for a table outside a nondescript, storefront

restaurant. Loud music blasts out onto the street from

inside. Albert and Eva stand in front with the others, making

conversation. Everyone around them is YOUNG.
