((Upon arrival in Mexico, the HIGH PRIESTESS wastes no time but dives at once into the work at hand.))



** This little hotel is all right, but it's really not conducive to my creative process.  I must become one with the people... **




** So tell me, ConcepciĆ³n, where do you go when you need to find a male prostitute? **

Meanwhile, back in Riverton.........


MONROE:

** Wonder how Alma's doing. Wonder what she's decided to do. She's been so quiet and pensive, we've barely spoken a word in forever...... I miss her. I miss her shy smiles. I want to see happiness back in her eyes. **


((Sighs longingly))


** Wish I knew if she's quit him.**

MONROE:

((Hands shaking badly, heart racing wildly))

(( Stuffs basketfuls of expensive champagne and assorted delicacies in the back of his car))


** I'm just going over there to offer my support.....a little comfort.....  She must be distraught and embarrassed too perhaps.....   Didn't even see her sneak into the Shop to leave her note! **

(( Hesitates for a tiny moment, then: ))

%% Just in case. No harm in being prepared..... %%

(( Puts box with small diamond ring in his pocket, then drives off ))


((Whistles happily and hums: ))

I'm getting married in the morning, ding-dong the bells are gonna chime.....
la-la-la-and...... get me to the church on time!!



(( Arriving at Alma's place, hurries to knock on the door: ))

Got your message the divorce came through. So...... Here I am!

Hey, that's my line!
Why do we consume what we consume?
Why do we believe what we believe?
Why do we accept what we accept?
You have a body, a mind, and a soul.... You have a responsibility.

HIGH PRIESTESS:




** Sigh...  It's been 3 days since I sent Alessandro out to find research subjects.  All I hear from him is "send more money"!  I'm bored to tears.  I mean, there are only so many facials and French manicures one can stand in 3 days.... **


((A deferential knock is heard at the door))



** Enterado! **

ALESSANDRO:




** Signora, scusi.  I have at last succeeded in procuring several of the local...shall we say...professionals for your artistic purposes.  Are you prepared to receive them? **

HIGH PRIESTESS:

** At last!  This is so exciting!  Get me my tape recorder and notebook!  How do I look? **





ALESSANDRO:

** Like the immortal Melpomene herself, Priestess.  Cominciamo! **

AUDIENCE MEMBER:



Wow - our High Priestess *really* doesn't shirk her duties and obligations for the greater good of a perfect production, does she? What a woman!! I hope she knows what she's getting herself into this time....

(( Makes full use of especially big eyes in breathless anticipation so as to not miss out on the slightest little upcoming eventl ))

JACK:

Hey, that's my line!


MONROE:

(( Comes up for air for a moment, briefly extricating himself from ALMA's loving embrace: ))

Sure enough, bud - don't you agree it's simply the perfect line when you've been waiting and loving and wishing and longing for years and years, torn between dizzy hope and dark despair - and the love of your life *finally* gives you the "all clear"?

(( Turns back to the business of earnestly trying to break the Brokenarsed kissing record ))

Oh, happy day!!!!
