Birthday Party
Nat, Zach and Lilly are on the birthday party circuit. Almost every weekend, there’s one or two. It’s nap time and Nat is wrapping presents on the living room floor. Zach is trying to watch some Harrison Ford movie.
Nat: Oh no, we’re out of Scotch tape?
Nat: These scissors suck.
Nat: This masking tape is killing me.
Nat: Seriously, it’s like trying to cut with kids scissors.
Nat: Argh, this taaaape…
Nat: This is the worst wrapping job I’ver ever done.
Zach: It’s also the loudest.
Nat: I’m sorry, what have you done for this party?
Zach: I…
Nat: I RSVP’d, shopped for presents, bought a card, filled out the card, am wrapping the gifts and will help Lilly decorate them.
Zach: I said I’d go.
Nat: If by, “said you’d go”, you mean, “Ugh, what is it? Whose birthday? Will I know anyone there? Do I have to go?” then, yes, you did.
Zach: (turns volume up) How good is Patriot Games?
