The next day.
A chorus of alarm clocks, buzzers and radio broadcasts. The sun comes up.
A garbage truck drives on, picks up the garbage in front of ANGELO and PENELOPEās house and exits.
A taxi rushes on and screeches to a halt. PENELOPEās MOTHER rushes on and shouts back through the door.
MOTHER: Penelope. Thereās money for lunch on the counter, Iāll be back by noon, donāt watch too much TV.
The MOTHER jumps into the taxi and exits. As the taxi leaves, PENELOPE enters.
PENELOPE: Mother!
PENELOPE dials a cell phone as she exits back into the house, slamming the door.
Immediatly thereās a roar of a dinosaur and ANGELO rushes on. He timidly returns to the door.
ANGELO: Uhā¦ Dadā¦?
There is another roar. A hockey stick sails out the door and into ANGELOās hands.
Thanks.
The dinosaur grumbles. ANGELO begins to practise.
LOUISE enters on her way to work.
LOUISE: Good morning, Angelo.
ANGELO: Hi.
LOUISE: How do I look?
ANGELO: Okay.
LOUISE: Just okay?
ANGELO: You look fine.
LOUISE: Thanks! Iām a little nervous. Itās my first day at a new job. Listen, can Danny hang out with you till I get back?
ANGELO: I guess so.
LOUISE: Great. Well. Iām off to work. See you after work. Wish me luck. At work!
LOUISE exits. ANGELO practises. PENELOPE enters.
PENELOPE: What are you doing, Anjee?
ANGELO: None of your business.
PENELOPE: Practising?
ANGELO: Go away.
PENELOPE: It wonāt do any good.
ANGELO: Go away!
PENELOPE: Ooooh.
ANGELO: Look. Why donāt you just ignore me like when you went to that private school.
