START: Charlotte: (Into intercom) You may send the next patient in, Marcia. (She arranges herself at her desk, smiles in anticipation. Enter Bruce. He sits.) Hello.

Bruce: Hello. (Pause) Should I just begin?

Charlotte: Would you like to begin?

Bruce: I threw a glass of water at someone in a restaurant.

[... ... ...]

END: Bruce: Alright, thank you, Mrs. Wallace.

Charlotte: See you next week.

Bruce: I thought you wanted me to come right back to finish the session.

Charlotte: Oh yes, see you in a few minutes.

(He exits. Charlotte speaks into intercom.)

Marcia, dear, send in the next porpoise please. Wait, I don’t mean porpoise, I mean . . . pony, pekingese, parka, penis, no not that I’m sorry, Marcia, I’ll buzz back when I think of it. (She moves her lips, trying to remember.)
