A Match Made in Mattel

By: Seth Brenneman

Lights up on Seth and a furby sitting opposite of him on the table, there are various dinning wares about, they are in a restaurant on a date

Seth:…I’m glad we got together long pause soo…How’s your father doing? Pause, startled look A basketball you say?…I didn’t know kidney stones could get that big!

Long awkward silence…Seth does a series of clicks and mouth noises to fill the silent void

Waitress walks by

Seth:..Umm…excuse me waitress, could you,…umm

She ignores him and walks by

Seth: Can you believe that?…She just blatantly ignored me!…Did you hear what I said?…I said she pause n-nevermind

Another awkward silence

Seth: You know…there’s something I have wanted to tell you for awhile now

Silence

Seth: I-I love you…Did you hear me?…I said I…pause…nevermind

Silence

Seth: concerned look…Is there something you want to tell me…Scared…What do you mean you need some time?…um-hmm…um-hmm… But I…um-hmm

Seth stands up and paces around

Seth: But…What about that time at the beach?…You said I was the best you ever had!…Shocked…What’d you mean too small!? You said It was the perfect size!…I don’t care about your ex-boyfriend!

Continues to pace

Seth: But…I always brought you to orgasm everytime!…Shocked…no…You weren’t…I won’t believe it!…You couldn’t have been faking it! It was so real!…pissed…I’ve had enough, I’m sick of this! You can take a taxi home!

Exit Seth

Seth waits for the furby to say something or just enters

Seth: hopeful…Did you call me back?…pause, then pissed as hell Pay it yourself!!!

He exits

Lights down
