SITCOM: The Crystal Chrysanthemum (hiding damage)

INT. APARTMENT – EVENING

Cassidy is talking to her roommate, Hobart.

CASSIDY

Did you see my Crystal Chrysanthemum?

HOBART

You mean that glass flower on the bookshelf?

CASSIDY

Not glass. Crystal.

HOBART

Are they different?

CASSIDY

Is a steak different from a hot dog?

HOBART

Well, they do have one thing in common.

CASSIDY

What's that?

HOBART

You can't break a steak. Or a hot dog either.

CASSIDY

No. You can't break a steak. That's true.

HOBART

Glass, on the other hand...

CASSIDY

Crystal.

HOBART

If you want to get technical...

CASSIDY

Hobart...

HOBART

But, yeah, you can break crystal too.

CASSIDY

Not if you know what's good for you.

HOBART

You wouldn't have to do it on purpose.

CASSIDY

Actually, you wouldn't have to do it at all.

HOBART

Just like, you know, you wouldn't have to get really upset if -

CASSIDY

Where's the chrysanthemum, Hobart?

HOBART

Which part?

CASSIDY

It didn't come in a kit.

HOBART

But imagine if it had.

CASSIDY

What?

HOBART

Think of all the fun you could have gluing it back together.

CASSIDY

You know what's gonna be even more fun?

HOBART

Eating a hot dog?

CASSIDY

Tearing you apart. Limb from limb.
