Play 162: Coincidences

CHARACTERS
VINCENT, 17
JEFFREY, 17

(They’re sitting on a couch watching TV.)

VINCENT
It was so bizarre.

JEFFREY
Wait, so what happened?

VINCENT
So, I was talking to this person about Memento.

JEFFREY
So?

VINCENT
Well, right after we got off the bus, I went to the computer lab to do some writing, and guess what’s on on the TV in there?

JEFFREY
Seriously?

VINCENT
Yeah.

(Beat.)

And, it’s not like I talk about that movie all the time or anything.

JEFFREY
That is pretty bizarre.

VINCENT
It is.

(Pause.)

VINCENT
Man, Coincidences are weird.

JEFFREY
(With a look of shock on his face.)
Woah…

VINCENT
What?

JEFFREY
I was just going to say that man…

VINCNET
Seriously?

(Beat.)

(Jeffrey starts laughing.)

VINCENT
Fuck you man.

JEFFREY
(Inbetween bursts of laughter.)
I couldn’t resist.

VINCENT
I was kind of asking for it wasn’t I?

JEFFREY
Indeed.

(Beat.)

VINCENT
They are weird though.

JEFFREY
I know.

VINCENT
Okay.

(Beat.)

(Blackout.)
