SCENE VI
Interior: Susie's bedroom.  She and Christine are talking about the party tonight,
while Susie is shoving things into a backpack and scurrying around the room.
SUSIE:
(thinking)
Hmm, what else should I bring ... ?
CHRISTINE:
Why don't you just bring your whole bedroom?
SUSIE:
Don't worry about me.  What are you bringing?
CHRISTINE:
(holding up a brown paper bag)
I got everything we need.  I got two six packs of beer,
some champagne, some chips, pretzels, and squeeze cheese.
SUSIE:
Squeeze cheese?
CHRISTINE:
Yeah.  To put on the chips and pretzels.
SUSIE:
I'm sure it'll go great with champagne and beer.
They both giggle.
CHRISTINE:
So anyway, what are you taking?
SUSIE:
I stole a bottle of wine from my parents' liquor cabinet.
(she holds the bottle up)
And I got a forty-ounce of beer.
CHRISTINE:
Good.  Then I won't be the only one walking in, looking like
a complete alcoholic.
SUSIE:
Christine, I really appreciate you and Helen coming over
tonight.  It means a lot to Jackie too.
CHRISTINE:
It's no problem.  Anyway, is Alyssa coming tonight?
SUSIE:
Yeah.  She thinks George is getting in, but it's not gonna happen.
I seriously doubt Jackie's gonna let them use her parents' bed,
like they're planning.
CHRISTINE:
(rolls eyes)
God, I hope not.
