COT
Who is she talking to?

LEE
Well! Shall we get to work?

[LEE looks up, as if listening to an invisible speaker]

LEE
There is? Really? Where?

[After a pause, LEE turns and looks directly at COT]

LEE
Oh! Hello!

COT
Yaah!

[COT falls backwards as he scrambles away. He crawls several feet on his hands and knees as LEE makes her way around the edge of the circle]

LEE
I didn’t see you there! How are you today?

COT
Stay away from me!

LEE
It’s alright! Where are you going?

COT
I’m not afraid of you!

[LEE raises an eyebrow and smiles]

LEE
That’s good, we’re really quite friendly!

COT

Yeah right, then what's that on your head?

LEE
My spoon?
It's always good to carry a spoon on your head when you don't know where you are!

COT
Y-you're a crazy person!

That's not fair to say, you're very well-mannered, here you're just scared.
Has everyone gotten tired of me talking to myself yet?
