Dim the Fluorescents Page #4

- You guys should come.

- It's probably pretty exclusive.

[chuckles]

Extremely. Completely.

I have a pass.

But it's just for me.

But I'm resourceful.

[man] And those figures will be

confirmed early next week.

- Is that somewhat accurate, Phillip?

- It is, indeed.

Terrific. Okay, uh,

on another note,

HR has asked

that we do an info-session

on sexual harassment in the workplace

either this week or next week

just to make sure

we've covered that ground

in some kind

of meaningful way...

Do we need a demonstration?

Because I know somebody.

[indistinct chatter]

[Audrey] Looks like

a good time.

- Lillian, is that you?

- It's me.

See you inside.

[machine trills]

You crushed the bar code.

Did I?

- Hi.

- Hi.

Very nice.

- It looks great in here. [chuckles]

- I know.

You look sublime.

Hey, hold on a second.

- Perfect.

- You, too.

[loud, indistinct chatter]

- I'm going to find the bar.

- Let's get a drink.

The scene

is really quiet, right?

We've just come down

from that crescendo, catharsis.

- You know the part?

- Yeah.

You could hear a pin drop.

And this woman in the audience

just starts sobbing.

- Wow.

- I don't know if it's a good thing, necessarily.

She was really sobbing,

uncontrollably.

Like, we paused

as it was applause,

but she just wouldn't stop.

And what I'm saying is

I don't really get it.

What's the point of all this?

What are we doing this for?

Well, it's beautiful.

It's a connection.

But what for?

What are we saying

to each other?

Is that for us to decide?

It's not.

Should be, shouldn't it?

You made a woman cry, Hannan.

Reasons I'm doing this, and I actually

said this, one, because I love it.

This might not be clear

to you people,

but just because you wanna buy

doesn't mean I'm for sale.

Actually?

You actually said it?

This is a real thing?

And then I met Alice the same day.

I'm not even kidding.

I took it as a sign.

She'd be here, but she's

doing a session at Bard.

It's the acoustics

of architecture,

but it's not practical.

It's strictly theoretical.

- Which isn't to say that it isn't the real thing.

- No.

It's just sometimes

people say that.

What are you doing? Are you working?

I haven't seen you in forever.

- God! Audrey!

- Yeah, I've been, kind of, laying low.

- But what are you doing, though? Audrey.

- [chuckles nervously]

What're you doing?

It seems kind of silly to

say, but I guess it's not.

I got that grant

after last year, which,

you know... [chuckles] And

basically, the premise of the thing

is it allows you to work on

something for months just writing,

which, in itself, is amazing.

It's in a lodge

on a mountain.

And then rehearsal...
