Scene X: Debbie G
Debbie G’s Lounge sit up like an Applebees from the fifties. On the surrounding wall were photographs of Jimmy Stewart and Marilyn Monroe. Jack and Ashley enter. Behind a podium was Valerie Spencer
Valerie: (cheerful) Good-evening! Welcome to Debbie G! How many?
Jack looked between Ashley and him. He started to say something sarcastic. Before he had the chance Ashley said it.
Ashley: Nine. The other seven are in the parking lot.
Valerie: Okay this way.
She lead the way, completely oblivious to Ashley’s sarcasm. Jack and her laughed silently about it.
Valerie: Okay we can sit you two and another four in this booth. But, uh... The other three have to sit in that booth over there. Is that okay?
Jack: (sarcastic) That’ll be fine thanks.
Valerie smiled and walked off. Jack chuckled, Ashley smiled. The two sat down in the booth. Jack quickly scratched his cheek. Ashley situated herself comfortably.
Jack: So.
Ashley: (looking around) So... what?
Jack: So whattya think?
Ashley looked around. Jack watched her. She paused at a photograph upon the wall.
Ashley: Who is that?
She was pointing at a photograph of Frank Miller.
Jack: Him? That would be Frank Miller. He actually ate here.
Ashley seemed uninterested.
Jack: The graphic novel artist. He wrote the – You don’t know who Frank Miller is?
Ashley: No. (sarcastically) Sorry.
Jack: You have nothing to be sorry about.
She smiled. Jack held out his hand to be taken by Ashley, whom did it. The two just sat there and looked at each other. Like a trance. They didn’t even notice whenever VALERIE returned to take their order.
Valerie: Okay, so what I can I get you two? Or do you want to wait until the others come.
Ashley looked at Jack to share a ‘She’s an idiot’ moment. Jack looked at Valerie.
Jack: (calmly) We’re gonna go ahead and order now. Uh. I’ll take the G.G. Cheeseburger.... and a Sprite to drink.
Valerie jotted it down. She then turned towards Ashley.
Ashley: A kid pizza.
Valerie looked at her strangely. She then wrote it down, shaking her head.
Valerie: And what to drink?
Ashley: How about a Coke.
Valerie nodded as she wrote it down.
Valerie: I’ll be right back with your drinks.
She walked off. Ashley looked at Jack and scoffed. Jack burst out laughing.
Ashley: Can you believe that fucking mongoloid?
Jack: You know it honestly doesn’t fucking shock me.
Ashley: Well anyways. You sad somebody ate here.
Jack: Yea. Frank Miller. The author. He sat right over there.
He pointed at a booth to the far right. A man sat in the booth wearing a blue button, dress shirt.
Ashley: A famous guy ate here?
She pointed at that table as if indicating that exact spot.
Jack: (jokingly) Well not there. But over there.
He snickered. Ashley fell serious.
Ashley: Hardy fuckin’ har!
Jack laughed harder. Ashley looked off somewhere, trying to come up with something to say.
Ashley: Why do we always get the flatcockers here? Frank Miller? I mean, who is he? Why can’t we get someone interesting?
Jack: You expecting the Carradine brothers?
Ashley: No. I mean someone like... Michael Keaton.
Jack pointed at Ashley in a sarcastic, threat.
Jack: Hey. Michael Keaton actually stopped at The Dinoco off 34th street.
Ashley: (surprised ) Really?
Jack: (nodding) Yea. You didn’t know that?
Ashley shook her head: No.
Jack: Wow. It was all over the newspaper. Actually it made front page.
Ashley leaned forward. Sarcasm was in her eyes.
Ashley: Well I guess that’s the difference between us. . . I don’t read the paper.
Jack smiled.
Jack: Yea. I do.
Ashley: (smiling) Yea, we know.
Jack smiled at her. They leaned together for a kiss. They then sat back down. Silence fell upon them. They both looked around uncomfortably.
Ashley: So a celebrity uses a gas station in town and it makes the front page?
Jack: (nodding) Yep.
Ashley glared at Jack.
Ashley: Wow. That’s pathetic.
Jack: Whattya mean?
Ashley: I mean... Michael Keaton comes in to get gas. Next thing you know is that it’s on the front page. You don’t find that pathetic?
Jack looked at her serious face. Silence. He started laughing.
Ashley: (laughing) What?
Jack: God. I love you.
Ashley smiled.
Ashley: I love you too.
(A beat)
Where the fuck are our drinks?
She looked around for Valerie. Jack joined her. In the booth to the far right Valerie was sitting down conversing with the man.
Ashley: Garcon! Oi, Garcon!
Valerie turned to see who was yelling. She sees Ashley. Signaled her to hold on. Ashley scoffed and sat down.
Jack: You did know that Garcon means boy, right?
Ashley: (smiling) Yea.
The two giggled. They leaned in for another kiss.
