12:00pm
Hamilton, Bermuda
People are all gathered to watch the execution of Joshua Donner.
|They are all seated and the process is ready to begin|
Miguel: I’m glad you guys could make it.
Kay: It’s not a problem Miguel.
Billy: It’s so sad this situation.
Miguel: What do you mean?
Billy: Charity not telling you she was raped.
Miguel: Yeah. I thought our love was stronger. I thought she could tell me anything.
Kay: Miguel. Maybe she wanted to protect you.
Miguel: I don’t know.
Billy: I’m just glad that Kay and I are trustworthy to each other. Right Kay?
Kay: Yeah.
|The executioner brings Joshua into the chamber|
Joshua: You guys are making a big mistake!
|Jeff enters the viewing room|
Jeff: Miguel?
Miguel: You must be Jeff.
Jeff: Yeah. I’m so sorry to hear about Charity’s death.
Miguel: Thankyou. And thankyou for trying to stop … That man… from … raping her.
Jeff: I did everything I could. But I didn’t stop it.
Miguel: Thank you for trying though. I appreciate it.
Jeff: It’s the least I could do. You know. I can’t believe how sick people can be to go as far as to kill someone and rape someone.
Miguel: I can’t believe it either. It’s really disgusting. I’m glad this guy is getting what he deserves.
Jeff: Me too. I mean, I only knew Charity for a little while. But she was a great person.
Miguel: I know. That’s why I married her.
Joshua: YOU!!! |Pointing to Jeff|
Joshua: That’s the man who should really be up here! Not me!
Executioner: SILENCE!
Miguel: You know, I can’t believe this guy. Blaming you, of all people.
Jeff: Yeah, well. I try to ignore him.
Kay: Hey, I just had an idea. Why don’t we all get together for dinner tonight? You too, Jeff.
Jeff: Sure. I’d love too.
Billy: Uh, Kay. We have to take care of you know what tonight.
Kay: Oh, okay. How about tomorrow night?
Miguel: That’s fine with me.
Kay: It’ll help you take your mind off of Charity.
Meanwhile at Dynamite Dinner at the Hamilton Inn
Rebecca enters and stops at the counter
Hank: May I help you?
Rebecca: Hank Bennett.
Hank: Hello Mrs….
Rebecca: Crane.
Hank: Yeah.
Rebecca: I still haven’t forgotten that one night.
Hank: Yeah, well. I have.
Rebecca: How would you like to go upstairs and… play that one again?
Hank: Aren’t you here with Julian?
Rebecca: He’s getting al little boring. I want someone young and hung like you.
Hank: Okay. That’s enough. What is with all of you women?
Rebecca: Boy, you’ve changed. Unlike that one night.
Hank: I was drunk, I didn’t even know… you know what. You’re driving me crazy.
Rebecca: Alright. Alright. I’ll just have to look elsewhere for… well, you know.
Hank: You’re a slut.
Rebecca: Thanks.
Hank: Do you want to order something?
Rebecca: Yes.
Hank: What would you like?
Rebecca: I’ll have one large fry, a chili cheese dog, a medium coke, and for dessert I want to strip you to your boxers and cover you with whip cream then I wanna poor chocolate on you and lick it all off.
Hank: Where have I heard this before?
Rebecca: I came up with it. It’s in the book I wrote last year called “101 Phrases to Seduce a Man” It’s a pretty good read.
Hank: Hmm. I’ll have to pick it up sometime.
Rebecca: What? Why would you want to read it unless you were…? Oh. Hah. |Hank nods his head|
Rebecca: Well… HAHA… can’t blame a girl for trying. So uh… do you have one of those erotic boy crushes on anyone?
Hank: That’s none of your business.
Rebecca: I’ll take that as a yes. And I bet I know who it is.
Hank: No. You don’t know what you are talking about.
Rebecca: It’s Luis.
Hank: Luis has nothing to do with it.
Rebecca: I won’t tell anyone. As a matter of fact… who wouldn’t want to slip into bed with that hunk of meat?
Hank: Quit talking about Luis like he’s some kind of toy.
Rebecca: AWWW… how cute. You’re trying to defend him. But Hank. If you’re… gay. Then, why did you make love with me that night.
Hank: I have a problem with drinking, I won’t deny you that. The truth is… well… you’re not the first woman I’ve done this too.
Rebecca: What?
Hank: You were the first, and I’m not saying it’s your fault. It’s just… when I get drunk the old Hank comes out if his shell. It’s like he’s still inside me and only comes out when I get drunk.
Rebecca: Maybe you should go see a psychiatrist.
Hank: Maybe.
Rebecca: I’m sorry I came down here the way I did. I didn’t mean to offend you or anything.
Hank: It’s alright.
Rebecca: So does Luis know you’re attracted to him.
Hank: No. Nobody does.
Rebecca: You poor thing.
Hank: But the thing is, I did something really horrible.
Rebecca: What is it?
Hank: No, I can’t tell you.
Rebecca: Oh, but you can tell me anything.
Hank: Well, I guess.
Rebecca: Start from square one.
Hank: Well, when I found out that Luis and Sheridan were on this island I was mad because I knew that Luis and Sheridan were still married. But I couldn’t control myself, I wanted her out of the picture. And the other day, Luis came down here and ordered a diet coke for Sheridan because she had Diabetes and couldn’t have a lot of sugar.
Rebecca: Wait, why are you talking in past tense?
Hank: Just listen… So I came up with a plan. Right out of the blue, I put 6 packages of sugar in the coke.
Rebecca: Oh my gosh, what happened next? Did she faint or something?
Hank: No, she… died.
Rebecca: From 6 packages of sugar? No, that’s impossible.
Hank: Coke wasn’t the only thing I put sugar in. You see, Luis was going to come over and visit me that night but Sheridan was asleep and he didn’t bring her. But while Luis was at my house I had room service take up a bunch of sugary foods and I had them right her a card and sign it with Luis’s name.
Rebecca: Wow.
Hank: I feel so bad. I was really trying my best to be a good religious person. And I was up until that day I got drunk and slept with a girl.
Rebecca: So Sheridan is dead?
Hank: Yeah, why?
Rebecca: Hmm… no reason. And where is Luis?
Hank: I don’t know. I was just up in his room and he wasn’t there.
