FRANK
RHODA

+++
BEDROOM DAWN

FRANK: You're so real Rhoda.
I'm not going anywhere in my life.

RHODA: If you say that to me again Frank I'm going to tear my hair out.

FRANK: Certain moments cast me into a vast de-regioning space, Rhoda.
I had the same dream again last night.

RHODA: Let your self go Frank.
Tomorrow is our anniversary.
[pause]
Something's gotta change.

+++
SUPPER TIME KITCHEN

FRANK: Honey I'm home.

RHODA: I'm in the wrong position.
[adjusts]
I'm in the wrong position.

FRANK: Look at that pussy.

RHODA: I'm in the wrong position.
How did I get here.
How did I get here.

FRANK: It's as if a vast sea of dust vanished
and disappeared.

RHODA: Your dinner is cold
Would you like coffee after dinner tonight Frank?

FRANK: I'm sorry I'm late Rhoda. There was a lot of traffic at work today.

RHODA: And
using all the intellection at his disposal Frank stood up to clear the dishes or it can be said their delusions of existence from the table.

FRANK: What possible avenue is left for us Rhoda?

+++
LIVING ROOM AFTER COFFEE

RHODA (swishes forward, sings): Won’t you make love to me
in my anti-witchcraft suit
I will extract the partial demons leaching out your 7 mind holes.

FRANK: If we were to make the sudden effort Rhoda and get on a plane.

RHODA: You're imagining it Frank.

FRANK IS HOLDING A GUN

FRANK: In our life in that aforementioned distant country, where everyone will understand the language I'm speaking immediately.
[pause]
Rhoda, it’s time for our William Tell routine.

RHODA: OK. Wait. My apple.

APPLE DELIVERED

RHODA: OK. OK.

FRANK SHOOTS RHODA IN HEAD THREE TIMES

GAUTAMA
SUBHUTI
THREE HEADLESS MONKS
TWO BEAUTIFUL WOMEN

GAUTAMA: Subhuti as many grains of sand as there are in the Ganges is that many?

SUBHUTI: Yes.

GAUTAMA: And if in each of these grains there were as many worlds in each grain as there are stars in space and particles of dust in space and the particles of which dust and stars are composed would this be more or less?

SUBHUTI: Indeed yes yes yes truly the limits of such number is unfathomable.

GAUTAMA: And if in each of these worlds there is the river Ganges, thus how many grains of sand total?

SUBHUTI BEGINS LABORED BREATHING GAUTAMA APPROACHES SLOWLY DECAPITATES HIM

GAUTAMA: Truly Subhuti the world is like this:
In reality there is no sand and no grains of sand and no Subhuti

ENTER OTHER DECAPITATED AND DANCE

GAUTAMA: This then is the flowering of Dharma Subhuti: if you are going to dance yeah dance and I will persist as infinite as the sky
which is the sky which is the sky which is the sky which is the sky which infinitely returns to being the sky and remains the sky and does not depart one instant from being the sky for countless thousands of kalpas.

ENTER BEAUTIFUL WOMAN HOLDS UP A SKULL
ENTER BEAUTIFUL WOMAN HOLDS UP A FLOWER
IDIOT GRINNING

GAUTAMA: Did you get it? Do you get it?

SUBHUTI: No thanks we're not taking any of that shit that's just plastic flowers and a plastic skull. Stick around with me boys until some real wisdom dakini's show up and we'll get 'em loaded on chung and poppers and fuck em like rabbits till the whole world goes pop.
[5 minutes pause]
OK I guess it isn't gonna happen.
