EVANDRA: No! Stay outside here with me and let’s talk calmly. K?
SALENE: I don’t want another dumb argument.
EVANDRA: Fine. No dumb arguments…deal. (pause.) Why did you call me a failure?
SALENE: I don’t even remember.
EVANDRA: I do. Clear as day, I do.
SALENE: We call each other names all the time.
EVANDRA: This was different. This was extra.
SALENE: Extra?
EVANDRA: This was seasoned. You added some spice on top of what was served.
