7 - Bubble Wrap w Noli, Mez, Cammeo, Grace & Fin
2004
NOLI:
Look. Big box. Open please?
MEZ:
Do you think we ought to wait for A-m?
NOLI:
Want to see. Open now. Open now!
GRACE:
A-m won't mind. Maybe it's Daprima!
MEZ:
Get down Noli, efore you hurt yourself. Let me pull
off all this bubble wrap - hey there’s another
box in here, covered with more bubble wrap.
NOLI:
Bubble wrap go pop pop pop …
MEZ:
Let’s find out who this is ...
- ? -
Daprima?
NOLI:
Me no 'Prima. Me Noli.
- ? -
Hi. Is Daprima here? I was supposed to
be shipped to her house.
MEZ:
Then you're in the right place but she’s out of town.
I'm her brother, Mez.
- ? -
It's nice to meet you. I'm Fin and this is my brother, Karanthir.
(pronounced ka-RAN-thir)
NOLI:
Ahhhhhh!
MEZ:
Hey - put that away you're scaring Noli!
FIN:
I'm sorry, we didn't mean to scare anyone.
You see my brother, well, this is all I have left
of him. It's a long story. It all started when ...
GRACE:
What's wrong with you bringing a head in here that has no body?
That's just creepy. If you think you’re going to live in my house
with that, then you're wrong, yes you are.
What's going on in here?
GRACE:
A-m - he's got a head that doesn't have a body.
I know all about Fin and his brother. I was going to explain it
to you before you all met. Who told you to open his box?
GRACE:
Uh … it was Mez's idea, yes it was.
Just look at this mess.
FIN:
I’m happy to help clean this up.
That's nice of you Fin, but you've just arrived and I need to find
you something to wear. In the meantime, the rest of you
can put all that bubble wrap back in the box.
NOLI:
Noli too?
Yes, Noli too.
GRACE:
But A-m, what about that head?
The head stays. Someday, maybe Fin will tell you how
Karanthir lost his body. Right now, you have some bubble
wrap to attend to. Come with me Fin, and bring your brother.
Later ...
Fin, don't worry about Daprima, she'll be back soon.
FIN:
Thank you. I look forward to seeing her again.
There is one thing, I'm concerned about Karanthir.
I need to keep him safe until he can be whole again.
I placed him on this pillow in this bowl. Is that OK?
