Seth, teens

Ben, 20s

Chastity, 20s

(Lights up on Ben and Chastity at a checkout counter. The Seth, the clerk is totally up their groceries as Ben hands what he can for Chastity to hold.)

SETH

And you total is eighty dollars and seventy-five cents.

(Ben pays Seth.)

CHASTITY

That’s a lot.

BEN

Really not bad for a week’s worth of groceries.

SETH

Here’s your change…

CHASTITY

At a grocery store. Except you insist on shopping at movie theater concession stands.

SETH

And a coupon for fifty cents off a jumbo nacho combo on your next visit.

BEN (To Chastity)

Hello, coupons.

CHASTITY

Wait. We need toilet paper.

BEN

Napkins, please. (Seth hands Ben a few napkins.) Keep ‘em coming.

(Blackout.)
