Scene:
The Living Room
Characters:
NADIA, Young, pretty mother.
RAYMOND: Precocious three year-old boy
Curtain rises and we see NADIA cleaning. She is concentrating on rubbing all the dust off the coffee table.
RAYMOND enters stage right.
RAYMOND: Hey, Mom!
NADIA: Moves to clean the side table. Yes, Raymond?
RAYMOND: The curtain thing fell down in the bathroom.
NADIA: I saw that. I'm going to fix it here in a minute.
RAYMOND: Flops down on the couch. You can't fix it!
NADIA: Arranges pictures on side table. Of course I can.
RAYMOND: No you can't. You're a girl. You can't fix things.
NADIA: Excuse me?
RAYMOND: I'll tell you what you CAN fix . . . You can get in the kitchen and fix me some dinner!
NADIA: Jaw drops.
Curtain closes.
