(ANNIE
and FOOFEE’s cube. COUNTESS VAN
DER CAVE and GRACE
are there for a visit. Everyone is enjoying fresh fruit.)
GRACE
Someone listen to my story.
COUNTESS VAN DER CAVE
It better not be depressing---
FOOFEE
More raspberries?
COUNTESS VAN DER CAVE
God, yes---
GRACE
It’s about my time in the WAC, a young lesbian
in California and then Florida, feeling mannish but not sure---
COUNTESS VAN DER CAVE
(Indicating
FOOFEE, her womanservant)
I like this one’s Alsatian story better.
(ANNIE
rises from her thoughts, breadfruit in hand.)
ANNIE
If all of you can come and
go, then why don’t we just break free from this cube and . . . find---my---Lonnie!
COUNTESS VAN DER CAVE
(Whispered
loudly to FOOFEE)
Did you catch how she emphasized those last three words?
