24. INT. COLLINS RES. DAY.
COLLINS and LUCY are in the LIVING ROOM in an UNCOMPROMISING POSITION as the LATTER bitterly complains about JEFF’S attitude towards her lately.
COLLINS
I’m so glad you made it, you know at a point; I thought you weren’t coming again.
LUCY
Oh honey! You know I would do anything to make sure I’m with you; just that the traffic congestion delayed me.
COLLINS
But you should have called me so I could pick you up instead of you having to take a taxi.
LUCY
I didn’t want to bother you, honey; I didn’t really have any problem getting here. The only one that could’ve got me really upset was your friend, Jeff, honey he actually insulted me. There was…
COLLINS
You mean Jeff had the nerve to insult you?
LUCY
Have I ever lied to you before? The scallywag did, he had the impetus to call me a prostitute.
COLLINS
Good heavens! That guy is taking too much oo! Anyway, dear, don’t get yourself worked up over that; you know the tout job he’s doing is gradually turning him senile.

LUCY
I don’t care if he’s already a psychiatric case; all I know is that I will make him pay for his stupidity to me today.
COLLINS
Please dear, don’t let that idiot’s attitude to you today, spoil our day. By the way, what did you bring for me?
LUCY
You wouldn’t believe it, that fool gave me a cheque of half a million naira after I lied to him that my mum was ill.
COLLINS
Great! This is good news; I have always known that you’re a genius. Oh! This calls for a celebration.
LUCY
So, what are you waiting for? Let’s begin it right now.
COLLINS
Sure! First, from the bedroom.
