talk to you like that?

GARY CLOSES THE DOOR

GARY (QUIETLY)

Jane's my sister-in-law.

MITCH LOOKS PUZZLED

GARY (CON'T)

Let's just say my wife is one of those people you'd never ever want to upset.

MITCH

I understand. I've always said that women are bad for discipline.

GARY

Right!

GARY GIGGLES THEN LAUGHS BUT STOPS WHEN MITCH DOES NOT LAUGH WITH HIM. MARY, 35, AVERAGE, RUSHES INTO THE OFFICE.

MARY

Principal Manners you just have to do something.

GARY

Mary, don't you ever knock?

MITCH

I see that you are busy. Perhaps we should reconvene our meeting at another time.

MARY IS INSTANTLY MESMERIZED BY MITCH. SHE FEEBLY KNOCKS IN THE AIR, NOT NOTICING WHERE SHE IS KNOCKING UNTIL SHE EVENTUALLY FINDS THE DOOR AND KNOCKS ON IT. SHE THEN COZIES UP TO MITCH.
