Can I add Act 2 Scene 3?
[From the wings a masked stranger appears driving Nissan Skyline ...]
Him : "Actually dear ... the one I really want it the 32GTR
V-Spec"
Her : "Really?"
[Exit stranger stage left.]
Her : "Over my dead body are you having anything like that ... you
can't
afford it."
Him : "I know dear ... it's just a pipe-dream my love ...
goodnight."
[Time passes ... dawn breaks. He is roughly awakened by darling wifey to
be...]
Her : "I went to get my Tesco Online Order printout and what do I
find? Why
are there all these pages from Exchange And Mart online about Skylines for
sale printed out?"
[Curtain closes ... thunder crashes.]
