Stop Kiss - Scene Seventeen

Which airport is he flying into?

JFK.

At 11?

11:30

Have the car service…on the Williamsburg bridge will be too heavy

Check. Do you ever go out dancing?

Sometimes I do…bunch of us girls to go.

I’d like to go sometime.

Sure

Will you let me know next time you go?

A bunch of us girl friends go….everyones really nice and smiles

Have you ever…asked someone to dance?

We kind of stick to each other….and I’ve met them.

You ever meet a woman there, that seemed…interesting…to you?

…No. Not there. Have you—?

What.

In st. louis, do they—or have you been to?

We have a couple places like that but I’ve never been. My friend Janet says that only college girls go to the clubs and bars; older lesbians just stay home and read. That’s what everyone in St. Louis does, stays home and brews their own beer or does their email.

But I mean, have you ever…?

I mean I cant imagine any woman who’s never felt attracted—

Right!

It’s just, I mean if you’ve never actually been—

You want a beer?

Love one.

I hope I have some.

What time is it?

Just about 6.

Uh-oh

What?

I promised my roommates I’d clean the apartment by the time they came back from their trip and they’re gonna be home in an hour.

Just—wait here a couple more minutes.

I really should go.

Just wait one minute.

Why?

I wanna…show you something.

Callie—

Take my watch. What time is it now?

5:59

And how many seconds?

38 seconds.

And what day is today?

Thursday.

What time is it now?

5:59 and 50 seconds

So count ‘em

What?

Count ‘em down. Five seconds, four—

Four, three, two, one — what. What? It’s quiet. Oh! It’s Thursday at 6! And its quiet! I’ll call you tomorrow.

OK.

Um, see ya.
