AT RISE:

DAN and PHYLLIS.

DAN:
Are we at a party?

PHYLLIS:
Nope.

DAN:
Restaurant?

PHYLLIS:
Nope.

DAN:
Public park?

PHYLLIS:
Nah.

DAN:
Are we at any sort of place where people gather socially to faciliate random meet-ups?

PHYLLIS:
'Fraid not.

DAN:
Alright, so how are we currently meeting? I mean like, now. As in right now. What we're, at this moment, doing.

PHYLLIS:
No idea. I guess it just kind of... happened. "Is happening"?

DAN:
Guess so.
(beat)
This is going to be a terrible story to tell our kids.

PHYLLIS:
We're having kids now?

DAN:
You never know.

PHYLLIS:
Ah. Some might accuse you of coming on a bit strong.

DAN:
Probably.
(beat)
I just thought it seemed like a thing to say.

PHYLLIS:
It certainly was that.

DAN:
Besides. I think this means something.

PHYLLIS:
This?

DAN:
All this. This... nothing. And then you. And me. Everything.

PHYLLIS:
Everything.
(beat)
Me too.

DAN:
All right.

PHYLLIS:
All right.

DAN:
So what's next?

Phyllis shrugs.

BLACKOUT. END PLAY.
