Trip is afraid of being poor like he was when he was little he was poor, and had to stay in a shelter for six months. He uses the expensive things around him to feel like he's not poor, but it's never enough. Grace painted the painting above the couch, she paints when Trip is on business trips and thinks Trip was holding her back from taking it seriously. Sometimes Trip cheats on Grace with someone named Maria. Grace sometimes cheats, not sure who. |

JESPER Like what? TRIP Uh, y -- uh, yeah, heh, tonight is special... TRIP Jesper, -- (interrupted) JESPER Why? TRIP Uh, well, r - remember how you introduced us almost exactly ten years ago tonight? JESPER No TRIP Uh, well, all I can say is, tonight means a lot to me, and Grace. JESPER That's dumb TRIP No, no, no it's, uh -- it's good to see you again. -- (interrupted) JESPER Nope (Trip shakes the advice ball.) TRIP N - no, no... TRIP Ah! Jesper, I'm being a bad host -- you need a drink. JESPER No TRIP Oh this perfect -- (interrupted) TRIP Uh, um, wait, um, uh, we need drinks. TRIP How does a martini sound? TRIP Grace's dad taught -- (interrupted) JESPER No TRIP Oh, I -- I thought you'd love that... GRACE Trip, Trip, you're pressuring our friend. JESPER Yeah GRACE Jesper, Trip's getting a little carried away... maybe you just want some juice, or a mineral water? JESPER Sure GRACE Good, okay! TRIP Anyway, about the drinks... TRIP (little sigh) I'll just make something nice for myself then... TRIP Grace, I assume you also don't want a real drink, correct? GRACE I'm going to join our friend in what he is having. TRIP (frustrated sigh) TRIP Oh, Jesper, you've -- (interrupted) PHONE ** RING ** (JESPER gets up from the couch.) GRACE Oh, I'll get it -- TRIP No, no no no, our friend's here, we can let the answering machine get it. PHONE ** RING ** GRACE Trip, no, I want -- TRIP Grace, come on, don't be rude. (JESPER picks up the phone.) PHONE ** RING ** PHONE Hello? Hello? TRIP Jesper, no! Don't do that. JESPER What are you wearing? PHONE Who is this? Travis, is that you? This is your mother. TRIP Uhh, that's my mother, I can hear her loud voice. PHONE I don't recognize your voice... GRACE Oh! PHONE I -- I think I have the wrong number... ** click ** JESPER This is doge TRIP Okay, she's confused, as usual... just -- just hang it up. (JESPER puts down the phone.) TRIP Oh, good, you hung up. I don't want to talk to her. GRACE Oh, I wanted to say hello -- (JESPER sits on the couch.) TRIP No no, come on, we're entertaining a friend in our new apartment... (JESPER gets up from the couch.) TRIP the last thing I want to do is talk to my parents. GRACE Anyhow, Trip's parents... They're sweet people, really down to earth -- TRIP Uhh, no, they're ignorant, they wouldn't know what a cumberbund from a cucumber. GRACE (frustrated sigh) GRACE (big sigh) GRACE Oh God, Jesper, I hope you didn't come here tonight to be entertained... TRIP What? JESPER I did (JESPER picks up a player's drink.) TRIP W -- wait, wait, wait, what's wrong, Grace? TRIP Anyway... TRIP Grace, come on, that kind of statement is not helpful... GRACE Trip, it's okay if we disagree in front of our friend -- TRIP Disagreeing?! We're NOT disagreeing. We're, we're not. (JESPER sits on the couch.) TRIP (frustrated sigh) Sheejus. JESPER Calm down GRACE You know, ever since we got married, I can't help it, I'm forever buying new furniture and redecorating, GRACE I -- I really enjoy it -- TRIP Yeah, it's in your blood, you grew up with this stuff. (Trip sips his Trip's drink.) GRACE Jesper, now be honest with me, agree that this room just does not work! TRIP Grace, come on, what are you talking about? JESPER It doesn't work GRACE Oh, yeah, that new painting, I just put it up this week... It's... TRIP Well, heh, I don't know what the hell it is, so it must be good, heh! TRIP heh heh... TRIP Heh. GRACE (clears throat) GRACE So, about my decorating... GRACE All day at work I design ads for stylish objects, like these paintings, GRACE and then I think, I want to design them into my apartment -- TRIP Yeah Grace was the highest bidder at an auction for this! GRACE but... no, I'm wrong, these look completely amateurish and gauche. TRIP Oh come on! Jesus why can't you just be happy with this? This is fine! JESPER Yeah they look like stuff GRACE Ah, thank you, I knew you'd give me an honest answer -- TRIP Uhh, it's just decorating for Christ's sake, you're turning this into some big issue -- GRACE You know, Trip, if you hadn't convinced me to go into advertising, I could have painted that painting on the wall instead of buying it! TRIP (short petulant sigh) TRIP Yeah and with our income cut in half, we'd be living in some basement apartment in Queens, as if you could ever handle that... JESPER It's no issue man TRIP Uhh, let's not talk about the damn decorating anymore... GRACE Anyhow, Jesper, thank you for your honesty. GRACE (happy but tense sigh) GRACE Jesper, GRACE you and I are getting along so well tonight... (Trip sips his Trip's drink.) JESPER Indeed GRACE Stay there for a moment... -- (interrupted) GRACE Y -- yeah, stay there for a sec. GRACE Ugh, I'm getting -- (interrupted) JESPER Ok GRACE Y -- yeah, well, stay there, I want your opinion... GRACE Maybe if I replaced it with... um... TRIP Do you... do you remember, Grace... GRACE What. TRIP How I proposed to you. GRACE Oh, God, Trip -- TRIP Here, Jesper, I'll show you. TRIP It was at Grace's parents' house, Christmas, senior year of college -- GRACE Trip, what are you doing?! TRIP I got on one knee, in front of everybody, and -- GRACE Stop it, Trip! TRIP I pulled out a diamond ring -- GRACE Trip! TRIP And I said, Grace, will you marry me? TRIP Heh, is -- is that romantic or what?! JESPER That's gay TRIP Jesper, yes? Very romantic? JESPER No GRACE Thank you! TRIP What? I -- GRACE See, Trip, not everyone thinks being proposed to like that is so romantic. GRACE I don't know where you get your ideas. TRIP Jesper, TRIP Grace, come on, what could be more romantic than that? GRACE Jesper, I'm sorry, you didn't need to see that -- TRIP Grace! GRACE Trip, you're being a real bore tonight, let's just forget about it, okay? TRIP (big frustrated sigh) GRACE (clears throat) TRIP Jesper, I -- I want you to look at this photo from our recent trip to Italy... GRACE (impatient sigh) Trip, maybe our friend would prefer -- TRIP Grace, just because you don't like it, doesn't mean our friend won't... (JESPER gets up from the couch.) TRIP So, come on, I -- I want you to look at this! GRACE (annoyed sigh) GRACE Jesper, come over here and sit on the couch with me. TRIP Grace...!!! JESPER Ok GRACE Trip, you see, your special interest for all things European is making our friend very uncomfortable! (JESPER sits on the couch.) TRIP Goddammit, Grace, this was supposed to be our second honeymoon! GRACE What? Jesper, Trip is absolutely exaggerating, it was simply a weekend getaway, that's all. TRIP Jesus, I was trying to find a way for us to spend some time together! GRACE All those business trips of yours to Europe must have done something to you. TRIP Uhh, you're driving me insane! TRIP Goddamn italy... TRIP I try to reach out to you, I try to be romantic with you, but you're cold, and distant! I do, I really try! GRACE (impatient sigh) Jesper, can you believe this? GRACE (frustrated sigh) TRIP Uh huh, you... TRIP I know what you'll say... TRIP You've been criticizing me ever since you got here! JESPER I'm not sorry GRACE You and your damn parents... GRACE What? I -- what are you saying to me? TRIP Your... goddamn decorating... TRIP You're never satisfied with anything! You're never happy, never ever satisfied with anything. GRACE Oh, sure, yeah! JESPER You are both annoying TRIP Alright, you know what, Jesper, TRIP I need to ask you something. GRACE Trip -- TRIP Grace, let me ask our guest a question. TRIP Jesper, yes or no... TRIP If one person in a marriage gives the other advice, and that advice is taken -- years later, can you get blamed for that? GRACE What? TRIP Is it okay to get blamed for giving advice that was taken, like, ten years ago? TRIP Yes or no. JESPER Yes TRIP What...?! TRIP Oh, alright... yeah... TRIP Uhh, I keep trying to help you Grace, but you reject me, you cut me off, you cut me out of your life, goddammit! GRACE Oh, my God...! (JESPER sips his player's drink.) GRACE Uhh! Yeah, good, get out of my sight! (JESPER sips his player's drink.) (JESPER sips his player's drink.) GRACE I don't want to look at you! (JESPER sips his player's drink.) (JESPER sips his player's drink.) GRACE Goddammit! (JESPER sips his player's drink.) (JESPER sips his player's drink.) (JESPER sips his player's drink.) GRACE uhh! JESPER I'M FINISHED GRACE Jesper, I -- I'm sorry... this is a disaster... (JESPER puts down a player's drink.) JESPER Nope GRACE What?! What are you saying to me? TRIP Grace, what the hell are you saying about me in there? JESPER This is fun GRACE What do you care? GRACE Jesper, in -- in what you said before, about marriage... I think we've already learned something about Trip. TRIP Oh, we're talking about me again, are we? GRACE What? TRIP Jesper, look around this apartment. It's got everything anyone would ever want. But, Grace, oh no, she's never satisfied. GRACE Trip, ... ugh ... I'm so sick of this. TRIP Well, heh, I -- I mean, we -- heh -- we -- we've got everything... GRACE Trip, you just don't... uhh. TRIP Look, let's not focus on just me or you, let's talk about us both. GRACE I think Trip's afraid of visiting his parents. He does everything he can to avoid seeing them. TRIP Afraid of my parents?! My parents are idiots. GRACE No, it's true... JESPER I'd agree TRIP Yes? GRACE Ah, that helps him. TRIP What!? That's ridiculous. Why would I -- why would I be afraid of their stupid meatloafs and their tacky house and their crappy wine...? TRIP Let's keep the focus on us, not just one person. GRACE Jesper, you -- you blame me for all this, don't you? TRIP See, I don't think you really want to be an artist. This is all just something -- (interrupted) JESPER No TRIP No? GRACE Oh, thank God you disagree, that really helps us! Uhh! Trip, how dare you say that to me! Uhh... JESPER I blame you both GRACE Trip, it's your fault -- ten years ago, freshly married and just out of college, you convinced me to go into advertising, instead of art! TRIP What? GRACE If it weren't for you, I could be a real artist by now. TRIP Uhh... Jesper, uhh... JESPER Why'd you invite me here? GRACE Why? TRIP Thank you. Grace, you wanted a real job -- at the time, you told me you didn't want to paint anymore! You said that! GRACE Uhh... JESPER What does this have to do with me TRIP Look, let's talk about Grace now. GRACE You know Trip, it's so annoying when you 'reminisce' about 'the early days'... TRIP What...? GRACE It was not a happy time, Trip. TRIP Oh my God... -- (interrupted) JESPER Yeah, go away Trip TRIP Okay, Jesper, you know what? I think you should leave. JESPER forget you TRIP We can put up with a lot, but we have our limits, you know? JESPER Let go forgeter (Trip opens the front door.) TRIP We'll be fine -- just go. JESPER I beat your wife (Trip closes the front door.) JESPER forget butts |

I'm going to passively try to find a Minecraft modder willing to help me make some mod of this game. Mainly, I want to not have to restart the game to play again, not disable Aero, use PNG textures, and improve how fonts are handled. |
