STEPH<br />
Is this what’ll happen to me?<br />
HALE<br />
Of course, but thank goodness you’re not alone, like him.<br />
Hurry up with that obituary.<br />
STEPH<br />
Why don’t you find it yourself?<br />
HALE<br />
Time is money, honey.<br />
HALE<br />
You got it?<br />
STEPH<br />
No, um—what’s his name again?<br />
He leans in to kiss her again, but she breaks<br />
away, half-assedly kicking the paper into a<br />
pile.<br />
Hale continues shaving Mr. Piggy.<br />
Steph sits on the floor to restack the newspaper<br />
according to date. She holds up the next page<br />
to read it. Her eyes zig-zag through the lines<br />
but stop abruptly. She stands still with her<br />
mouth slightly open.<br />
While Hale leans over to the table to look at<br />
a prayer card, Steph rolls up the page in her<br />
hand and stuffs it in her back pocket.<br />
HALE<br />
Pygmalion . . . But I like to call him Mr. Piggy. I think he was a musician or<br />
artist <strong>of</strong> some kind.<br />
