I'll See You in My Dreams Page #7

RONA:

Pass.

18.

CAROL:

One no trump.

SALLY:

Pass.

GEORGINA:

Two no trump.

RONA:

Pass.

CAROL:

(thinking about it)

Three no trump.

RONA:

I’m feeling good tonight, girls.

You guys are not winning tonight, I

can tell you that.

Sally laughs.

SALLY:

Pass.

GEORGINA:

Pass.

The girls start arranging their cards.

RONA:

So who the who hell was he with?

SALLY:

Who?

RONA:

Jerry Davis.

SALLY:

Oh right. Jerry was with Karen. And

I could’ve sworn she was doing you-

know-what to him in the pool.

GEORGINA:

Sally!

SALLY:

Not sex, Georgie. I think she was

just giving him a little tug.

Carol and Rona laugh. Georgina is shocked.

19.

GEORGINA:

The language, Sally!

SALLY:

What language?

GEORGINA:

(shivering)

“Tug.”

SALLY:

How is that language? I said “tug.”

I didn’t say she was “jerking him

off.” Jeez...

GEORGINA:

I don’t like that kinda talk.

RONA:

You’re so sensitive, Georgie.

GEORGINA:

I’d just rather not hear about

Jerry Davis’ habits in the pool.

RONA:

That pool. It’s disgusting. Too

many people are in that pool.

SALLY:

I love that pool.

RONA:

God knows what’s in that pool.

CAROL:

It doesn’t seem particularly clean.

SALLY:

Like your pool’s a day spa.

CAROL:

I have it cleaned once a week.

GEORGINA:

Carol, when are you gonna move in

here? A lady just passed on two

cottages over. God rest her soul.

RONA:

That reminds me - they have new

brochures. I want you to see the

new brochures, Carol.

20.

CAROL:

I don’t want to see the new

brochures. I already saw the old

brochures.

RONA:

I’ll bring some by this week.

SALLY:

Yeah, Carol. You’re missing out on

all the action.

CAROL:

I’m very happy with my house, thank

you.

RONA:

But that pool, Carol.

CAROL:

What about my pool?

RONA:

You’re all alone there! You could

slip and fall and no one would be

around to help you. You could drown

in that pool.

CAROL:

Well, at least it’d be clean.

The girls laugh. Some card playing.

GEORGINA:

Carol, how’s Hazel been feeling

lately?

Carol looks at her.

CAROL:

Hazel... He, uh...

(looks at Rona, then looks

down at her cards)

I had to put Hazel down.

All at once GEORGINA and SALLY put their cards down and utter

hushed apologies, “Oh, Carol,” “For Christ’s sake, why didn’t

you tell us,” etc.

GEORGINA:

When?

CAROL:

A couple days ago.

21.

RONA:

That’s terrible, Carol.

CAROL:

(to Rona)

Don’t act so surprised.

RONA:

What are you talking about?

CAROL:

Don’t play dumb, Rona. Kath told me

you told her. How’d you find out

anyway?

RONA:

Mike told me.

SALLY:

The guy with the dog? Your

neighbor?

CAROL:

(to Rona)

Well, aren’t you just cozy with

everyone?
