Lauren
Thanks again guys for coming to my sleepover party. I didn't think anyone would really come.
Maria
Your mom paid me 80 dollars to be your friend for a week.
Lauren
(offended) Oh, um... thanks for telling me.
Elise
I go everywhere Maria goes.
Lauren
(turns to Maria) You poor thing. Anyway, if you're bored we can play pin the chemical on the Periodic Table or um...
Maria
TRUTH OR DARE! Elise, you first. Truth or dare?
Elise
... Truth.
Maria
What is a secret you've kept that no one else knows?
Elise
Uh... Oh! My ex boyfriend, the one who lived in a trashcan... he had one extra toe on his left foot. Yeah, I'm not kidding, it was like he had (starts to count toes but stops at ten) Wait, I don't have enough toes to count how many he had!
Lauren
Eleven. He has eleven toes. How many boyfriends have you had, Elise?
Elise
I don't know, I never learned to count past 30.
Maria
And that was only this month. But back to the point. Lauren, it's your turn. Truth or Dare?
Lauren
Okay. Dare.
Maria
Impressive. I dare you to... summon a spirit to this room!
Lauren
Uh, no thanks, Maria. I chose truth!
Elise
That's against the rules. You have to do your dare!
Lauren
Ok. (gulps) If any spirits are in here, please give us a sign. (waits a while) Well, no one's home. Guess we'll just have to call it quits and go back to talking about homework!
Maria
Wait, there must be something we can do.
Elise
I dance when I don't know what to do.
Maria
(shrugs) Okay, let's give it a shot.
(the girls start dancing)
Annie
Hello darlings.
