I’m Not Throwing You Anywhere
Seanna challenges Hopper due to his inhibitions in this drama scene from the one-act eplay, The Echoes of Our Existence.
SEANNA: Done.
HOPPER: What’s done?
SEANNA: Us.
HOPPER: You’re bluffing.
SEANNA: Am I?
HOPPER: If this is what you want.
SEANNA: You could go now.
(Hopper continues getting dressed)
HOPPER …Feeling useless.
SEANNA: You aren’t totally useless.
HOPPER: You’re throwing me out.
SEANNA: I’m not throwing you anywhere.
HOPPER: But you want me to leave.
SEANNA: That’s called knowledge.
HOPPER: Knowledge?
SEANNA: Uh-huh.
HOPPER: What is?
SEANNA: What you’re feeling.
HOPPER: You’re a cold woman.
SEANNA: Aren’t we adults?
HOPPER: You lack humanity.
SEANNA: (laughs)
HOPPER: Human decency.
SEANNA: (laughing)
HOPPER: And you’re twisted.
SEANNA: I’ve been called much worse.
HOPPER: I’m not trying to call you names.
SEANNA: Is your manhood wounded?
HOPPER: My manhood?
SEANNA: What is your manhood anyway? Describe it to me.
HOPPER: I wouldn’t know where to start.
SEANNA: Give me one example of your beloved manhood.
HOPPER: I don’t believe I’m in love with my own manhood. I’m just an average guy.
SEANNA: (laughs)
HOPPER: You saying I’m not average?
SEANNA: I’m saying you are traditional.
HOPPER: What’s wrong with tradition?
SEANNA: There are values one should hold and others necessary to discard. The trouble is we tend to hold on to the wrong values for far too long.
HOPPER: And just how does one know which is which?
SEANNA: Time decides.
