(ANNIE’s and FOOFEE’s cube. FOOFEE is
cleaning. She dusts right up to the
other woman and gives her a light whack.)
ANNIE
I’m looking for Lonnie.
FOOFEE
Are you, though?
It seems like you’re sitting there.
ANNIE
Well, what can I---?
FOOFEE
Not dwell on your sorrows. Did I tell you I had a brother Feefoo? He was Alsatian---
ANNIE
They always are---
FOOFEE
He was my everything. He died yesterday. You don’t hear me complaining.
ANNIE
But . . .
FOOFEE
But what?
ANNIE
But . . .
FOOFEE
Yes?
ANNIE
He didn’t . . . he didn’t have any lines. So we never got to know
him. But Lonnie . . .
FOOFEE
Thinking too much---it’s not good for the head.
(She whacks ANNIE with a brush.)
