TROY
why's my popcorn bowl in bella's room?
MARTY
because she's sick.
TROY
that doesn't explain why my popcorn bowl is in her room.
MARTY
in case she gets sick again.
TROY
again?!?! are you telling me that there has been puke in my popcorn bowl! my popcorn bowl of seven years.
MARTY (long pause)
i cleaned it.
TROY
cleaned it? using what? because i'm pretty sure they haven't made the cleanser that can get puke residue off my one and only popcorn bowl.
MARTY (another pause)
is it too late to say she didn't puke in it?
TROY
i'm going to the store. i'll be back in a week.

| NOTE |
if you find yourself a visitor in our home, here is possibly the most important thing to know.
white = mixing
orange = popcorn
blue = puke & chemicals
sadly, this separation of function is a new concept for marty. in her house growing up, a dimpled metal bowl that looked like a relic from the roman empire served as the vomit receptacle for all nine people. and when it wasn't doing this, the dull metal bowl was used to mix pie fillings, cookie doughs and tuna salads. and to be fully forthright, i have no evidence showing that it wasn't also used for the car's oil changes. |
