Meg:*announcer's voice with brush for mic* now, lets catch up on what has happened. The gang[meg] decided to take whatever was in the oven at the point in which they called the pizza place, thus not knowing what they will receive.

Em: *over-excited* you know what I bet?! I bet its going to be havarti cheese with Canadian bacon!!

Bean:*em throws pillow, bean catches* its going to be cheese.

Britt: *bean throws pillow at Britt, thus starting the vicious cycle of the talking pillow* c’mon, bean. You gotta get into the spirit of pizza!!!

Meg: yeah, like pineapple and shrimp!!

Cheese: four cheese with m&ms!

Susan: blue cheese pizza with a hint of despair.

Bean: beef jerkey, green beans, and Swiss-American cheese!!!

Britt: *jumping up and down excitedly*that’s the spirit!!

Meg: you can put just about anything on a pizza.

Susan: and people usually do.*ding-dong*

Meg:*announcer* and the fatal moment has arrived! What will it be?? A-havarti cheese with Canadian bacon. B-pineapple and shrimp. C-four cheese with m&ms. d-blue cheese with a hint of despair. OR...e-beef jerkey, green beans, and Swiss-American cheese.*door is opened, people crowding*

Bean:*to whole room in a yoga-instructor fashion* breath in, and out. One more time. In...Out...

Meg: put a sock in it.

Em: touchy, touchy.

Susan: the pizza guy is a person with a life. Maybe. Don’t deprive him of precious moments on Earth.*everyone stares at her in disbelief* ok, so I might have smudged on the life part. And the precious moments. And the person part. But I needed to get your attention somehow.

Pizza guy:*uncertainly* hi.

Meg: we'll take whatever’s in the oven. Thx. bye.* hangs up, tosses phone on couch* it’s settled. We have no idea what were getting.

Bean: ode to joy.

GOTH--WHY???

Em:*to Susan* why do you wear chains and dark, baggy clothes black make-up and stuff?

Susan:*glaring* to signify my solitude and promote self-assurance *back to book*

Em: What?!

Susan: I’m gonna ignore you if you try to talk to me.

Em: but you're not ignoring me!!

Susan: *sigh* the people on this planet are so primitive and naive to the ways of developed civilization
