Chapter 8: How Embarrassing!
written by Joie
added on: 15 Jun 2001 - based on characters created by Winnie Holzman
(INT.FOYER - CHASE HOUSE.DAY)
(Enter ANGELA and RAYANNE. They walk casually through to the KITCHEN.)
ANGELA: I can't believe Rickie even let you *talk* to him about Corey, let alone agree to set him up.
RAYANNE: Why?
ANGELA: 'Cause. He was really upset about what-
(ANGELA enters the KITCHEN before RAYANNE, spots PATTY and GRAHAM making out on the table.)
ANGELA: (to herself.) Oh, God.
(ANGELA steps back a little, treads on RAYANNE's foot.)
RAYANNE: Hey! Ouch!
(PATTY and GRAHAM stop immediately, look up at ANGELA and RAYANNE in the doorway. They disentangle themselves.)
ANGELA: (to RAYANNE.) Sorry, sorry...
PATTY: (embarrassed, unsure how much ANGELA and RAYANNE saw.) Oh, girls, you're-you're-
ANGELA: Yeah. Rayanne decided to, you know, come by...
GRAHAM: (also embarrassed, unsure.) Hi. Rayanne. Good to see you.
RAYANNE: Hi. Likewise.
ANGELA: We're just... you know, getting something to eat. Is-is there anything.. to eat?
(PATTY goes to the cupboard, GRAHAM to the fridge. ANGELA watches, embarrassed. RAYANNE watches, unaware of what happened.)
ANGELA (VO): Witnessing your parents, like, expressing some kind of emotion, to one another? In front of your friends? Is not normal. I don't know, it's just... it almost forces you to relate to them. In this weird way that isn't possible.
(ANGELA looks up, sees RAYANNE selecting herself food. She half-smiles, walks toward the cupboard herself.)
(INT.ANGELA'S ROOM - CHASE HOUSE.AFTERNOON)
(ANGELA sits on her bed, eating some pretzels. RAYANNE at the end of the bed, with a massive pile of snacks around her.)
RAYANNE: So... Patty seemed in a really good mood this afternoon.
ANGELA: Yeah. (Beat.) Do you get on with your mom's boyfriend, or whatever?
RAYANNE: What, Rusty?
ANGELA: Yeah.
RAYANNE: (shrug.) He's a slime, basically. But he wouldn't be the first. My dad, for example, would be another. I don't know. Why?
ANGELA: I just- I just wondered.
(INT.KITCHEN - CHASE HOUSE.AFTERNOON)
(PATTY and GRAHAM sit at the table.)
GRAHAM: Woah. That was close.
PATTY: Yeah, too close. How long do you think they were there?
GRAHAM: Not long.
PATTY: Yeah, right. How embarrassing. (Beat.) So, when should we tell Angela?
GRAHAM says:
