TRIP
Heh, is -- is that romantic or what?!
ADAM
No
GRACE
Thank you!

Adam,
TRIP
Grace, come on, what could be more romantic than that?
GRACE
Adam, I'm -- (interrupted)
ADAM
love
TRIP
So... drinks...
GRACE
Trip thinks he's at his classiest when he's on the serving end of a swizzle stick.
TRIP
Why don't I make us one of my new drink inventions,
TRIP
I call it Grace's Inner Soul.
TRIP
It's a mixture of chardonnay, bitters and lots of ice.
GRACE
It's a secret -- Trip doesn't even like the taste of alcohol. -- (interrupted)
ADAM
That's mean
TRIP
No?
GRACE
Trip, Trip, our friend isn't as excited by your suggestion as you are.
GRACE
Adam, I think you'd prefer something simple and light, like a nice glass of chardonnay, yes?
TRIP
(exhale very tense)
ADAM
Uh... Yes
GRACE
Okay, Trip, that's what he wants!
TRIP
No, this is not the way to celebrate our get-together...
GRACE
How about this, you open up one of those big three gallon jugs of red wine, like your dad did that first time we had dinner at your parents' house!
TRIP
What?
GRACE
Yeah your parents would never drink these shi-shi roostertails you try to impress people with,
GRACE
your parents drink the real thing, you know, those huge gallon jugs of --
TRIP
Are you trying to embarrass me?
GRACE
What -- no, I thought it was fun, I really liked that about your parents --
TRIP
Bullstuff!
TRIP
Ahh, this is bullstuff!
GRACE
Ahh, no, you're full of stuff!
ADAM
No cursing
GRACE
I'm trying to embarrass you...
GRACE
You seem -- (interrupted)
GRACE
What? I -- what are you saying to me?
TRIP
(little impatient sigh) -- (interrupted)
ADAM
You're wonderful
GRACE
No, please don't take sides, it's going to do more harm than good!
TRIP
Goddamn... kissing...
TRIP
You like it when other people reach out to you, but you reject me!
GRACE
Oh, my God...!
TRIP
Always other people, other things, never me.
GRACE
Alright, you know what, Adam,
ADAM
You are magic
GRACE
I'm going to ask you something.
TRIP
Grace --
GRACE
Trip, let me ask our guest a question.
GRACE
Adam, yes or no...
GRACE
If there was a thing about yourself you didn't like, but your husband or wife likes it, is it still okay to hide it?
TRIP
What?
GRACE
I mean, if your spouse _likes_ something about you, that you don't like, are you allowed to hide that?
GRACE
Yes or no. -- (interrupted)
ADAM
Yes
GRACE
What...?!
ADAM
No
GRACE
Oh, okay... fine...
ADAM
nop
GRACE
Trip, I can't take this denial anymore... You're suppressing yourself, you're so... fake! I hate it!
TRIP
Oh, god...!
TRIP
Uhh! Yeah, go on, get away from me!
TRIP
I can't frigging take this!
TRIP
What the... goddammit!
(ADAM comforts grace.)
TRIP
Hey, hey -- hey, no, I -- I don't...
GRACE
What, Trip? Are you trying to talk to me?
TRIP
No!
TRIP
Adam, this is not normal, this has never happened. -- (interrupted)
(ADAM comforts grace.)
GRACE
Adam, (annoyed sigh) Trip is just so...
TRIP
Oh ho, so we're talking about me, are we?
GRACE
What?
GRACE
Adam, it's time that Trip finally just admits that our marriage -- -- (interrupted)
TRIP
Grace, don't, no, you don't -- (interrupted)
TRIP
Adam, where are you going? Don't hide in the kitchen, we need you out here!
(ADAM sits on the couch.)
GRACE
No let's -- let's focus on us, our relationship.
GRACE
Trip, can't you see, it's the way you speak, the way you talk to me...!
TRIP
What, I'm not allowed to be angry?
GRACE
You tell me what to do, you don't listen.
TRIP
Adam, I'm not telling her what to do, I'm trying to help her!
ADAM
Grace is right
TRIP
Let's keep the focus on us, not just one person.
GRACE
You know what's so annoying, is when you pretend to be all 'romantic'!
TRIP
What...?
GRACE
Trip, it is such an act!
ADAM
romance is bad
GRACE
No?
TRIP
Thank you, you disagree, that helps us! See, Grace, you twist it into something bad! It's so typical!
GRACE
(frustrated sigh)
ADAM
I said it's bad
TRIP
You know, I can't say Grace never acts loving towards me...
TRIP
Adam, She's all over me at our goddamn parties, trying to look good -- (interrupted)
ADAM
Grace is loving
TRIP
Yes?
TRIP
Ah, thank you, just saying that helps us...
TRIP
See, -- (interrupted)
ADAM
Shut up Trip
TRIP
Okay, Adam, you know what? I think you should leave.
ADAM
NO
ADAM
sshole
TRIP
We can put up with a lot, but we have our limits, you know?
ADAM
You're such a failure
(Trip opens the front door.)
TRIP
We'll be fine -- you just have to go.
(Trip closes the front door.)

GRACE
Adam, maybe you'd like just a simple glass of white wine?
ADAM
I'M NOT THIRSTY
TRIP
You know what why I don't I just open a bottle of merlot and make it easy.
GRACE
Yes, sometimes a simple glass of wine is better than those fancy drinks you always insist on making.
TRIP
What do you say Grace, I know it's not your favorite, but help us finish the bottle?
(ADAM picks up a martini glass 2.)
