Results

Wrote this with Sean Prower. It was originally supposed to be done with the characters on the phone to each other, but we thought that the two interacting would be better. I suppose we find it funny because we are students waiting for our results to come in, I hope you all find it funny to. Try and imagine it being performed.

DANIEL:

SEAN:
See, I told you that you would act like this. You should get your own results from now on.

DANIEL:

SEAN:
Okay, I’ll tell you, D …

DANIEL:
(Indifferent) Well, D, it’s still a pass isn’t it?

SEAN:

DANIEL:

SEAN:
