ALYSON

        SONG:  KELLY’S DEBUT
        (Music intro holds for a moment, as Alyson mugs outward, hostile)

        WHY IS SHE HERE?
        THIS ISN‘T HERS- THIS IS MINE.
        PEOPLE SHOULDN‘T GO WHERE THEY DON‘T BELONG.
        SHE PROBABLY EXPECTS TO BE THE CENTER OF ATTENTION.
        WELL SHE‘S WRONG.
        (Benny enters; sees Kelly, stops)

                                                             KELLY
        (Waves.) Hi…


                                                             BENNY
        (Moment) Don‘t you eat?


                                                             KELLY
        Nice to see you, too.

        (Benny and Kelly long stare)

                                                            ALYSON
        Okay! You two just go ahead and pretend we‘re not here. Oh, wait. You‘re already doing that.


                                                             BENNY

        SO IT‘S THE FAMOUS KELLY RABIN.
        YOU JUST COULDN‘T STAY AWAY


                                                             KELLY

        THIS WASN‘T MY IDEA.
        YOUR GIRLFRIEND MADDIE CALLED TODAY


                                                             BENNY
        Yep.
        I ASK HER TO HELP ME; SHE SENDS ME…
        You.

                                                             KELLY

        AREN‘T YOU THRILLED WE‘RE BACK TOGETHER?

                                                               59
