Play 350: No Clue

CHARACTERS
VINCENT, 17
AMELIA, 17

VINCENT
(Angrily.)
You what?

AMELIA
What?

VINCENT
Did you seriously do that?

AMELIA
Yeah, why?

VINCENT
Are you kidding me?

AMELIA
What?

(Beat.)

VINCENT
You’re unbelievable.

AMELIA
I don’t get what you’re talking about.

(Pause.)

AMELIA
Vincent, what—

VINCENT
Do you have any idea how terrible a friend you are?

AMELIA
What?

VINCENT
I shouldn’t need to explain that to you.

AMELIA
What did I do?

VINCENT
This is exactly what I’m talking about.

AMELIA
What?

VINCENT
You don’t even realize that what you did was horrible.

(Beat.)

AMELIA
I’m sorry.

(Vincent laughs.)

AMELIA
I’m really, really sorry.

VINCENT
You’re sorry?

AMELIA
Yes.

VINCENT
(Laughing.)
You’re sorry?

AMELIA
I can’t explain how bad I feel…

VINCENT
Don’t say that.

AMELIA
But it’s true. I really mean it.

(Pause.)

VINCENT
Fuck you.

AMELIA
What?

VINCENT
You heard me.

AMELIA
But, I’m really—

VINCENT
No. Don’t say you’re sorry, don’t say you didn’t mean to, don’t say another goddamn word.

AMELIA
But—

VINCENT
Fuck. You.

(Pause.)

(Vincent starts to leave.)

(He laughs, and turns back.)

VINCENT
Know what’s the best part?

(Beat.)

You still don’t have a clue.

(He laughs, then exits.)

(Blackout.)
