Mother, May I Sleep with Danger? Page #5

---

for coming over.

Thank you.

Lovely. Thank you.

Thank you for having me.

Good night.

WOMEN:
Double, double,

toil and trouble.

Fire burn and cauldron bubble.

Thrice the brinded

cat hath mewed.

Thrice and once

the hedge-pig whined.

Harpier cries,

"'Tis time, 'tis time."

Roundabout the

cauldron goes.

In the poison

entrails throw.

Toad, that under

cold stone,

days and nights

has thirty-one.

Sweltered venom

sleeping got,

boil thou first in

the charmed pot.

ALL:

Double, double,

toil and trouble.

Fire burn and cauldron bubble.

(rhythmic music plays)

Fillet of a fenny snake.

In the cauldron boil and bake.

Eye of newt and toe of frog.

Wool of bat and tongue of dog.

Adder's fork

and blind worm's sting.

Lizard's leg and owlet's wing.

For a charm of powerful trouble.

Like a hell-broth,

boil and bubble.

Double, double,

toil and trouble.

Fire burn....

Double, double,

toil and trouble.

Fire burn and cauldron bubble.

By the pricking of my thumbs,

something wicked this way comes.

Open, locks, whoever knocks.

Like a hell-broth,

boil and bubble.

I did not direct that.

(chuckles)

(door opening)

(indistinct chatter)

Leah. Hey.

What are you still doing here?

(laughs nervously)

Can I walk you home?

No, I'm going

to meet someone.

I can't catch a break.

What do you mean?

What do I have to do, Leah?

You don't have

to do anything.

It's not about you.

Well, what is it?

Just tell me.

I'm in love with someone.

Who?

Is it that girl?

What?

I saw you kissing a girl

outside of your dorm.

D-do you like women?

Have you been

following me?

No, I'm not

following you.

Oh, you're a creep.

Hey, Leah!

Get off.

(wind blowing)

SHIRKE:

How's our little

newbie doing?

PEARL:

(exhales) I'm fine.

Still taking

your little photos?

Yes.

We're going

hunting tomorrow.

Be ready.

PEARL:

Mm-kay.

You're hungry,

aren't you?

Yes.

Good.

(wind blowing)

(keypad beeping)

(line ringing)

(phone buzzing)

(phone beeps)

Hello?

BOB:

Uh, hi, Ms. Lewisson?

Yes?

Hi, this is, uh, Bob Segal.

Oh, Bob. Hi.

What can I do for you?

Um...

Well, this is hard to say.

It's about Leah.

Oh, no.

Is this about that girl?

Oh, you know?

What, that Leah

has a girlfriend?

Yeah, I do.

But is... what is it?

Is something wrong with her?

Well, she's bad news,

Ms. Lewisson.

She's part of a bad crowd.

Like what?

Bob, is my daughter in danger?

Yeah, yeah. I'm in the play

with a few of her friends.

They seem like they're in

some really sketchy stuff.

Sketchy?

Like what?

I mean, they must be

into drugs or something.

She's really scaring me.

My God.

Okay, Bob, thank you very much

for telling me.

I have to go.
