Situation 9:
Getting Ready for the Party
(Mike comes out of the bathroom.)
Damn,I cut myself shaving.
No problem,just put some toilet paper on it.
I know that,but I'm going to have a
big scab on my neck all through the party.
No one will notice it.
Why not?
Because of that big pimple you have on your chin.
They'll all be too busy staring at that
to notice a little cut on your neck.
Thanks a lot.If I keep talking to you I'll be too
embarrassed to go to this party at all.And I'm the one who
got you invited.You owe me.
Sorry,I was just trying to help.
Here,let me get you that tie.
That's more like it.Now you're making
yourself useful.
Do you like stripes or solids?
Give me a striped one.My shirt is solid white;
I don't want to look too plain.
Good thinking.Do you want a matching handkerchief?
God no.Charles,this is only a semi-formal occasion.
Don't get too fancy.
I know,but when I dress up I like to go all out.
