ACT 1

Scene 1: {Rutherford House} Liz and Sam wrestle on the sofa, knocking over things. Mom and Dad are having a useless argument on Heather’s studying habits. A girl who can never think much lower of herself than she actually is.

Liz: You foul little creature! How dare you kick me? Wait till Rowley gets here and beats you up like a You-Know-What.

Sam: {Taken Aback} Excuse me? Crikey, that little fat bodyguard of yours is no match for me, the Intergalactic Space Lava’s chief! I, hereby command you to run away.

{Molly giggling, staring at Liz}

Liz: Amused Molly? We’ll see who’s laughing in the end. Consider yourself lucky no one has beaten you up into tiny fragments yet!

Molly: {Pfuit!} I hardly think that would be necessary.

Mom: Would you all please keep your mouths shut? I’m here, stuck in a situation where no one gives the least bit importance to what I say. There is Heather, who would never open a book even by accident, and then Liz and Sam, telling on each other and always up to mischief. Molly, get out of my way or I’ll kick you down the stairs Miss Nosey!

Heather: Hey Mother!

Mom: What is wrong you good for nothing lazy?

Heather: Man, I should’ve known. The point is, could pop me over to Fanny’s house tonight? She’s throwing a huge party. The best in town I suppose.

Mom: Certainly not! Do not expect any kind of favors from me Missy; I know fairly well how to treat nut-bags like you. Now, go to your room and read a book. Not a magazine, because I can raid your room and catch you red-handed anytime! And as far as Fanny is concerned, don’t consider her as some role model because she is literally nothing. Except some kind of a psychological patient!

Dad: That was cheerful, off to bed all of you, Pip Pip.

{Clownia enters cartwheeling across the stage, getting ready for his joke}

Clownia: Now you know why such people are feeble. All okay Heather?
