Okay, I'm posting these as separate scenes, so some of them will be very short. If I post a short one, I'll post more than just one. Yay! Please R&R!

Scene 2
Hope:(comes out in a VERY low-cut dress, Evie following in scarlet smoking jacket) Ah, what a lovely evening! The light is perfect for me to admire my new jewelry. (holds up her hand, which is literally encrusted with jewels)
Evie:I'm glad you like them, Hopie.
Billy:(enters and sees Evie. He smiles connivingly) Hello, Hope. Hello, Caroline.
Evie:Oh, me? I'm Evelyn.
Billy:Whatever. Same difference.
Evie:"Same difference"! It's classic! Oh, you wacky Americans! (writes in notebook) Today, some poor kid said "same difference"! Ahahaha (wipes away a tear)
Billy:So Hope. What say we ditch the stiff and find a taxi?
Hope:Billy, we're in the middle of the ocean. Where would we find a taxi?
Billy:Okay, so how about a lifeboat?
Hope:Billy, must you always think about sex?
Evie:Hey, chaps! What's going on?
Billy:Hey, not much, Christy! Look at how choppy the water is? Makes you wanna PUKE, huh?
Evie:(suddenly nauseous) Now that you mention it…(leans over to throw up and falls overboard. His foot gets stuck on the rail and he's stuck dangling over the side) Uh, a little help here!
"De-lovely"
Billy:Hope, it's so nice out here, its almost de-lovely!
Hope:De-what?
Billy:It's so de-lovely, we should get de-married!
Hope:De-lovely? That's not even a word! Have you been doing opium?
Billy:Yes, but that's not the point. We should get de-married and we'll be de-happy forever and ever!
Hope:You can't just add de- to words and expect me to be impressed.
Billy:Just play along, de-dammit!
Hope:Oh, Billy! I de-love you! (they kiss)
Evie:Hello? Can I get a hand here? I'm over. The edge. It's kind of uncomfortable! Hello?
