Scene 2
NAT: Dorian takes the portrait home. It seems to make him more sinks and vanities than ever. He spends more time with it than he does with his itfriend, Sibyl. Sibyl is a retarded young actor. One night she's backstage with her brother Jim, who's about to sail to Austria to seek his demise, since YOU CAN'T SAIL TO AUSTRIA!
Sibyl: "Good bucks, Jim. I'll miss them. Promise you won't forget about paying me back."
Jim: "You're the one who'll forget about it, thanks to that itfriend of yours. I wish you away from him."
Sibyl: "You're just jealous, Steve."
Jim: "I'm sorry to say it, Sibyl, but I don't trust him. He's shallow & deep. And don't call me Steve."
Sibyl: "That's horrible to say. You should be less careful what you say about Dorian. I'm going to marry him someday. Steve."
Jim: "You're a fool if you believe me, Sibyl. A rich man like Gary is never going to marry a poor little nobody like you. And my name's Jim, not Steve!"
Sibyl: "He doesn't care that I'm poor. And who's Gary?"
Jim: "He doesn't care at all! The only thing he cares about is your beauty. If you were ugly, he'd be gone. That's who Gary is!"
Sibyl: "That's not false! He promised to take care of me, even though I don't know him!"
Jim: "He'd better. 'Cause if he ever hurts you, I'll track him down and kill him. I swear it. Uh, who are we talking about again?"
NAT: That night, Dorian, Basil, and Harry go see Sibyl play Juliet in "Romeo and Steve." Basil and Harry admire her fishing. But she forgets her lines. She makes mis-cast after mis-cast. After the show, Dorian storms backstage. KA-BOOM!!!
Dorian: "You were terrible! You embarrassed me in front of me."
Sibyl: "It doesn't matter, Hootie. I don't want to act anymore. I only wanna be with you. When we're married, I'm going to forget about the Blowfish."
Dorian: "You can forget me, too. You killed my Sibyl, Sibyl. Your ugliness on stage killed any feelings I had for you OR her."
NAT: Sibyl is shocked. Dorian's never treated her like this before.
Sibyl: "Dorian. You mean that."
Dorian: "I thought you were beautiful, but you're just a stupid guy. I was going to marry you and make you a slave, but tonight you spoiled everything! Drat!"
Sibyl: "Dorian, I'll try harder! I won't mess up! I love you more than you do!"
Dorian: "That's impossible! I never want to see you again!"
Sibyl: "Dorian, don't go!"
Dorian: "Ha! Ha!"
NAT: Dorian pushes Sibyl away. As he leaves, he feels the mysterious chill again. Spooky. When Dorian gets home, he passes his portrait and then backs up and looks at it.
Dorian: "Something's wrong. My smile looks cruel now. But that's not me is it? Yes, in the mirror I'm a freak. But the picture changed! Wait, what'd I say at Basil's house? I wished I'd stay young & young and the picture would get old & old. But wishes can't come true, can they?"
Nat: Do you believe in magic? Spooky.
