SHORT PLAY 40
(An apartment. A man enters)
Man – (incredulously) What are you doing?
Roommate – Watching Dukes of Hazzard.
Man – In your underwear?
Roommate – (shrugging) It’s how I roll.
Man – (pointing) What’s that?
Roommate – What? The cooler full of strawberry daiquiris or the goat?
Man – There’s a goat?
Roommate – Yeah. In the bathroom.
Man – (utterly confused at this point) Why the hell is there a goat in the bathroom?!?
Roommate – Because he already destroyed half your room and I didn’t want him to ruin anything else.
Man – (slumping into a chair) My room? Dear God. Let me have one of those daiquiris.
Roommate – (handing him a daiquiri) I saved half of your stereo system.
Man – Fucking goat.
Roommate – Shhh.
