Begone Delight
(A bar in Portland. Very sheik, lovely, new. NOOZ sits at it. Two small overturned cardboard boxes are on the table. He wears a blue suit with a beautiful silk white tie. CLARIS enters, a bartender. A dirty towel is jammed into her jeans pocket.)
CLARIS
I’ve got five minutes.
(NOOZ offers her to sit.)
Lay it on me.
(NOOZ lifts one of the boxes. Two large, happy cupcakes. A beat. CLARIS grabs the cupcake and bites deeply into it.)
They never get me a dinner break ‘round here.
NOOZ
Everything gets reduced you know? By whatever -- the powers that be. Person has these things in them, multifaceted gemstones emanating light and force, and what do they tell us? Here’s a Paxil. One-two, your brain’s all through. (Beat.) I broke the Xerox machine at work. Smashed the glass thing on -- you know -- that the paper goes on.
CLARIS
Yeah? Did they can your ass?
NOOZ
You gotta be kidding.
CLARIS
Yeah. (Beat.) That’d be too hateful.
(They laugh.)
