while. And when I'm feeling<br />

a little better, I'll get<br />

up and leave. I don't want<br />

to disturb your party.<br />

DELIA<br />

What about my clothes?<br />

BEETLE JUICE / OLD WOMAN starts to hyperventilate.<br />

DELIA backs out of the room.<br />

DELIA<br />

No, no, don't do that.<br />

INT: UPSTAIRS HALLWAY -- DUSK<br />

DELIA comes out of OTHO's room, just as LYDIA is coming up the<br />

stairs from the first floor.<br />

DELIA<br />

Lydia, find Otho, and tell<br />

him I need five of the red<br />

ones, and I need them right<br />

now.<br />

LYDIA<br />

Listen, I'm sorry I was<br />

gone --<br />

DELIA doesn't care. She flings open the door of the master<br />

bedroom, and disappears inside.<br />

The door of OTHO's room opens again, and out steps BEETLE JUICE /<br />

DANNY DEATH.<br />

LYDIA melts.<br />

LYDIA<br />

Oh God. You came.<br />

You really came.<br />

BEETLE JUICE / DANNY DEATH<br />

I told you. I wouldn't<br />

miss it.<br />

EXT: THE TENT -- NIGHT<br />

ADAM's orchard is now covered with a wooden platform, on which<br />

half a dozen groaning tables have been laid out.<br />

The DEETZ's party is comprised of three distinct groups: the<br />

literary world (CHARLES), the art world (DELIA), and the DEATH<br />

ROCKERS (LYDIA). These three groups mix rather better than one<br />

would imagine. Certainly they're jostling one another to get at<br />

the food.<br />

CHARLES sits morosely alone near the corner of the tent, with a<br />

pitcher of Long Island Iced Tea between his legs. A couple of<br />

book types stand near him, exchanging glances over his head. As<br />

CHARLES talks in his drunkeness, he stares up at the lighted<br />

window of his study.<br />

CHARLES<br />

If I put it in a book<br />

nobody'd believe it.<br />

The IRS shows up, no<br />

warning, he's in t<strong>here</strong><br />

for seven hours, hasn't<br />

even come out to take<br />

a piss, God knows what<br />

he's looking for, God<br />

knows what he's gonna<br />

find.<br />
