3 Men and a Little Lady Page #4

---

Come along. I've made

your favorite biscuits.

Oh, good shot,

Mom.

Don't you think you

can stay longer?

- I tried to change her mind.

- Did someone leave a window open?

In you get, darling.

Lie down. That's it.

Lovely.

Tomorrow, we can do

anything you want.

Can we toss

a Frisbee?

We'll discuss that

in the morning.

Would you like me

to sing you a lullaby?

I want a rap song.

Oh.

I need a drink.

Have you

seen Jack?

I think he went out

with Cassie.

Damn. He promised

to rehearse this scene.

I've got to

do it in class.

He probably

forgot.

Yeah.

Sylvia, wait a minute.

I'll do it with you.

- You?

- Sure, why not?

I rehearsed with Jack.

I was a terrific Lady Macbeth.

- What's the play?

- "Rainmaker."

Well, where

do you want me?

All right.

Stand here.

- You're sure?

- Yeah, this is great.

- Then here.

- All right.

Ah,

I'm Starbuck?

Unless you want

to play Lizzie.

Starbuck

will be fine.

Starbuck is a very

dynamic, passionate,

very charismatic man.

Right.

- You ready?

- Ready.

"Let me ask you, Lizzie,

are you pretty?"

What's

the matter?

Nothing, nothing.

Just be natural.

You're being

a little too large.

Okay. Natural.

I can do that.

Natural.

"Let me ask you, Lizzie,

are you pretty?"

- No, I'm plain.

- "You don't know you're a woman?"

- I am a woman! A plain one.

- "Every woman is pretty."

Not me.

"Close your eyes, Lizzie.

Close 'em.

Now say,

I'm pretty."

- I can't.

- "Say it!

- Say it, Lizzie."

- I'm pretty!

What'd you do

that for?

It's...

in the script.

Well, no.

Actually it says,

"He kisses her."

Right.

Do you want

to try it again?

Okay.

- You ready?

- Ready.

Close your eyes.

- Say, "I'm pretty."

- I can't.

- Say it, Lizzie.

- I am pretty.

Um,

Jack should

be doing this.

He's the actor.

I was terrible.

You were doing

so well!

I was totally

unbelievable.

I thought you were

very believable.

Oh, my God.

I thought this

was against the rules.

No one's home.

- Except Mary.

- And she's sound asleep.

- Laurie, I've been thinking about us.

- Have you?

I think that it's...

time for us to...

to fish or cut bait.

All my life, I've dreamt

of a man saying that to me.

Sorry. I don't know

where that came from.

Aaah! There's

snakes in my bed!

Ah, Mary!

- You remember my friend, Laurie.

- It's nice to see you.

We were just making,

ah, ah,

what were

you saying?

Snakes!

Snakes, a-ha.

- There are no snakes in your bed.

- Maybe rats.

No rats, either.

- I'll be back.

- Bye.

- You're looking tired.

- I'm not.

You're looking

sleepy.

I'm not sleepy.

- Is everything all right?

- Why do you ask?

You seem tense.

I don't know.

Sometimes I feel like my life
