Jet lag
What time is it?
It’s 4 a.m.
That can’t be true.
Yeah, it is.
Oh, right, I’m in a hotel in California. I forgot.
We’re in California.
What are you talking about? You don’t exist. You’re just a voice in my head.
Hmm, I’ll forgive that comment. You’re groggy.
I need to get back to sleep.
At home we’d just be waking up about now.
Well, I’m not getting up; it’s too damn early here.
Come on. I think you should get up; I’m getting up.
Suit yourself.
So what’s your decision?
I told you, I’m going back to sleep.
Do you mind if I turn on the lights?
Of course, you can’t turn on the lights. You’re just an annoying figment of my imagination.
Why are you belittling me?
Can we get into this another time?
No. I want to talk about it now.
Look, I need more sleep.
You. It’s always about you, isn't it?
Of course it’s about me. There is only me.
See? That’s exactly my point.
Come on. Let me sleep for just a couple more hours. I promise we’ll chat about this later.
Sure, that's what you say now, but come morning you’ll forget all about me.
With any luck…
Don’t be nasty.
Leave me alone, okay? I just want to bury my head in this pillow and snooze.
Pretty lumpy pillow, don’t you think? And what about these sheets? They're like sandpaper!
The pillow is fine. The sheets are fine. Everything is fine, except that I’m awake.
Do you mind if I watch TV?
I’ve had about enough of you.
You don’t mean that. You’re nervous about your meeting today, that’s all.
Right, the meeting. Thanks for bringing that to my attention at this hour.
Got a little presentation to give, don’t you? Are you ready?
Oh God. I don't want to think about that.
If you get up now, you’ll have time to go over your talk again before the meeting.
There will be plenty of time after I wake up. I’ll rehearse it over breakfast.
Did you remember to bring the PowerPoint CD? You were in kind of a rush to get to the airport.
Oh, that’s low. You know I’m going to have to get up and look now.
I’m just saying it’s possible you left it at home.
Okay. I’m out of bed at 4 fucking o’clock in the morning. The lights are on. You happy now?
I get no joy out of this. I’m only looking after your best interests. Don’t hate me.
For the last time. You’re just a voice. A fictitious irritation.
Ouch. I have feelings, too, you know.
Sorry. I’m just exhausted.
That’s all right. How about some coffee?
Sure. You making it?
I don't make coffee. I don't exist. Remember?
Right. I'll make the coffee.
Well, I'll be on my way.
Hey, where are you going? I'm awake now. I thought you wanted to talk.
Don't worry. I'll be back. Same time tomorrow?
