Missed Connections: Mandy (More)

FADE IN on Wry hanging upside-down from bunk, handsfree in ear, cell phone on bed.

MANDY (V.O.): ... anyway, I've been talking about my boyfriend too much. I'm sure you don't really want to hear about him.

WRY: 's ok. I want to hear about what's important to you in your life right now, and if that's Rick, then I want to hear about Rick. I'm not jealous -- I'm glad you're happy.

MANDY (V.O.): Well...

Silence for several seconds.

MANDY (V.O.): Do you remember when you came up to visit me over the summer?

WRY: Of course.

MANDY (V.O.): Do you remember that look you gave me when you left?

WRY: Of course.

MANDY (V.O.): Well I... I mean, you're the... I can't...

Silence for several seconds.

MANDY (V.O.): I really like Rick, but I guess I'm just not really over you yet.

FREEZE FRAME

WRY (V.O.): *long sigh*. That wasn't in the script. Can we re-shoot that scene? Please?

Silence for several seconds.

WRY (V.O.): Hellooooo?

FADE TO BLACK

Yes, this really happened. Today.
