Clarice,
a
stunning
woman
in
her
early
thirties,
approaches
a
man
in
his
early
forties.
CLARICE
Norman!
NORMAN
(Looks at her.)
Clarice!
CLARICE
How've you been?
NORMAN
I'm doing great.
CLARICE
Clayton returned to London.
NORMAN
No way!
CLARICE
Yes, it's over. Now… we can…
NORMAN
Can't believe how much I love you!
CLARICE
Me too.
(They
embrace
each
other
and
kiss
passionately.
Then,
a
movie
director
enters.)
DIRECTOR
Cut! Let's do that one more time.
(Director
leaves
the
stage.
Clarice
and
Norman
change
their
emotions
from
loving
to
hateful.
They
both
speak
quietly
but
sharply,
always
trying
not
to
be
heard.)
CLARICE
You're
an
asshole!.
I
can't
believe
you
slept
with
Sarah.
How
could
you
do
that?
I
don't
think
I
can
work
with
you
anymore.
Once
this
movie
is
over,
I
never
want
to
see
you
again.
And
please,
at
the
premiere,
let's
keep
our
distance.
NORMAN
With great pleasure.
(The director comes back.)
DIRECTOR
Are you two okay? Let's try this again.
(They take their positions.)
DIRECTOR
Everyone ready? Then, ACTION!
NORMAN
Can't believe how much I love you!
CLARICE
Me too.
(Norman and Clarice kiss passionately.)
(Blackout.)
