      "Lexi, is this the part of the play where I steal Jake from Marta?" Cassie asked her younger sister.

     "No, Cassie, that's not in the play."

     "It is now!"

     "Who said that?" Suze looked out into the audience.  "Look, I wanna say, I get it.  Oh, God... I understand what you're going through."

     "I do not want to hear from you.  I lived it."

     Eliana placed her hand on her knee, turning and scanning the area around her, this time not just for Fez.  "Is Nate even here to see all this?" she wondered aloud.

     "Wait, Hallie steals Marta's boyfriend?"

     "I don't know how many times I have to say this," Cassie turned to the audience again.  "They were not fucking together."

     It's only a comfort to you, Cassie.

     "Yeah, not only that, but she was fucking him the entire time Marta was talking about getting back together with him," Maddy said from the audience, resting her forearms on the armchairs as she watched intently.

     "No... Why?" someone asked.  The audience was now more than intrigued, having actually been enjoying the play before it was interrupted.

     "Because Hallie is a two-faced cunt."

     "I'm not a cunt!  You're the cunt!"

     "You're the fucking cunt, bitch!" Maddy yelled back.

     "I am not a fucking cunt."

     "Okay, okay, you know what?" Suze said.  "You're just fucking embarrassing yourself.  Let's go home."

     "I'm not going home.  The play's not over."

     "Oh, my God.  I feel like I'm gonna throw up."

     "Mom, this isn't fair!" Cassie whined.

     "It's not her fault," Suze hid Lexi behind her.  "She's a writer.  She's a writer!"

     "This isn't fair, Mom!  How can she do this...?   Lexi, Lexi, I'm gonna fucking kill you!"

     "Okay, enough!"

     "Mom!" Lexi said, a bit more embarrassed than anything.

     "I don't know."

     "I'm panicking."

     "Go away.  Just go away.  Stop.  Stop it!" Suze finally encouraged them to get off the stage, and the carnival music kicked back up.  Eliana for one was intrigued since she hadn't been able to go to the carnival that semester what with being in Colorado and all.
