{Enter Larry*, Barry*, and Mary* into AA building.}
Larry: My scar hurts, I think this is going to go terribly wrong.
Mary: We have to get help for him! I read this book once.
Barry: (staggering and stuttering) B-boy th-that w-w-was f-fun, eh?
Larry: Barry, you just concentrate on walking for right now.
Mary: (whispering) That's got to be the 100th time he's told us that!
Larry: We're almost there. Here we are. Room 214.
Mary: (sighs) Thank goodness!
{Enter all three into room}
Speaker One: Hello, my name is Cathy, and I have been an alcoholic for 17 years.
{Applause from group}
Cathy: I came here today to get repulsated from my problem.
Leader: Cathy, do you mean rehabilitated?
Cathy: Oh, yeah. Thanks. I came here today to get rehabilitated from my problem.
{Applause from group}
Leader. Cathy, you may sit. Who's next? Ah, who do we have here?
{Motions to Larry, Barry, and Mary.}
Barry: W-wasn't that f-fun?
Larry and Mary: We're here for him. (point to Barry)
{Barry looks to see who they are pointing at.}
Barry: O_o Take me drunk, I'm home!
Mary: (whispers to Barry) Go on, talk to them.
{Barry walks up to the podium}
Barry: Hi. I am B-barry, and I have been here for 5 minutes.
{Crickets chirp} Barry: Ummmm, I had a really good time last night. See, me and my friends went out to party and I had (counts on fingers) one.two.threeee.seven.ten beers.And then I had some more this morning.I had.Lemme think.One.two.four.
{Group members look hungrily at Barry's fingers, then close their eyes and start licking their lips. Cathy pretends to guzzle from a bottle.}
Leader: Barry, why don't you have a seat?
{Barry sits down behind the podium}
Leader: I mean, in a chair. Down here, off the stage.
{Larry and Mary give the leader apologetic looks and carry Barry off the stage and he slouches into a chair.}
{Suddenly Barry yells}
Barry: There's too much blood in my alcohol system!
{Mary and Larry try to shush Barry as the man sitting next to Barry whispers to him}
Man: I know how you feel.
{Barry looks understandingly at the man.}
Man: So how many beers did ya have this mo'nin'?
Barry: I had one.two.three.four.six beers this morning.
Man: I see. (sits back in chair and falls asleep)
{Meanwhile another speaker has taken the stage}
Speaker Two: I used to be like Barry. I used to come here so drunk that one minute I'd know where I were and the next I wouldn't not even know. But I started comin' here and I started getting better. I've gotten down to one beer a day and pretty soon I'll have it down to one beer a week. I gotta thank Ms. Hardie down there. She really saved my life. I'm due for an operation next month to try and get the fat outta my liver. Then after I get it down to one bottle a week, I'm aimin for one bottle a year. I don't wanna drink no more. Thanks for your help, Ms. Hardie. (steps down from stage and sits back in seat.)
{Applause from group}
Barry: (to Speaker Two) Want a beer, man? I got one in the cooler. (motions to corner of room)
Speaker Two: Get this boy some coffee before he embarrasses hisself anymore.
{Mary nods and asks the leader privately where she can find coffee. Leader whispers back and Mary takes off down the hall.}
Larry: Barry, please be quiet.
Barry: Ok. {falls over onto Mary's chair and goes to sleep, sucking his thumb.}
Leader: Well, we have time for two more speakers, so who will volunteer?
{Mary rushes in with a mug of coffee and sits in the first available seat, passing the coffee to Larry, obviously not noticing that Barry is asleep.)
{Larry looks at the coffee, then looks up at Mary and points to Barry. Mary gives Larry an apologetic look and shrugs, and Larry put the mug under his chair.}
Leader: Well, if no one will volunteer.
{Larry walks up to the podium}
Larry: Well, my name is Larry, and I don't have a problem with alcohol abuse. It's my friend, Barry, who does. That's why we brought him here. If we had known he was putting beer into his orange juice this morning, we would have stopped him, but I was getting ready and Mary hadn't gotten out of the shower yet, so neither one of us saw him do it. Barry really is a good person, just like everybody here. He's just going through some rough times right now, and that's why Mary and I brought him here today. If we'd've known he's act like this, we'd certainly have waited until he was sober. I'm sorry if we upset anyone here today. We just wanted the best for him. And we'd feel terrible locking him up in a rehab center. So, on his behalf, I ask you to forgive him, and forgive us. {Larry steps down from the stage and manages to trip and fall flat on his face. Mary sniggers.}
