TRIP
Oh, ha ha, the European greeting! I love it!
(KELLY hugs trip.)

We just got back from Italy where they do that all the time!

GRACE
Oh, I'll get it --

No, no no no, our friend's here, we can let the answering machine get it.
PHONE

GRACE
Trip, no, I want --
TRIP
Grace, come on, don't be rude.
TRIP
Besides it's probably -- (interrupted)
(KELLY picks up the phone.)
PHONE
Hello? Hello?
TRIP
Kelly, no! Don't do that.
PHONE
Who is this? Travis, is that you? This is your mother.
TRIP
Uhh, that's my mother, I can hear her loud voice.
GRACE
Oh!
PHONE
I -- I think I have the wrong number... ** click **
TRIP
Okay, she's confused, as usual... just -- just hang it up.
GRACE
Oh, I wanted to say hello --
TRIP
No no, come on, we're entertaining a friend in our new apartment...
TRIP
the last thing I want to do is talk to my parents.
(KELLY puts down the phone.)
GRACE
Anyhow, Trip's parents... They're sweet people, really down to earth --
TRIP
Uhh, no, they're ignorant, they wouldn't know what a cumberbund from a cucumber.
GRACE
(frustrated sigh) -- (interrupted)
KELLY
She sounded like an idiot
GRACE
What? Is something --
TRIP
Grace, it's okay, a little criticism never hurt anybody... it's good!
GRACE
Oh... Yeah... alright... I mean, we're all friends here.
GRACE
hmmm Kelly, seeing you brings back wonderful memories, really...
TRIP
Ye -- yeah...
KELLY
Like which?
TRIP
Yeah, uh, we -- we've -- uh, we've missed you.
TRIP
Huh, I just thought of something.
GRACE
What...
TRIP
There's something we need to celebrate.
GRACE
What do you mean?
TRIP
Kelly, remember, it was almost exactly ten years ago, tonight, that you introduced us.
TRIP
Senior year of college.
GRACE
Oh... geez...
TRIP
Do you remember that? -- (interrupted)
KELLY
When you had an affair with me?
TRIP
Um, uh, wait...
TRIP
You think...
TRIP
I'm cheating on Grace...
TRIP
Ho ho ho, ha, heh you're -- you're really joking around tonight, aren't you, ha ha ha...
KELLY
Well yeah, we had fun one night
GRACE
Ha ha, yeah...
TRIP
Ha ha, heh, never afraid to say anything that pops into your mind, ha heh heh... -- (interrupted)
TRIP
So, ten years ago... that's when you introduced us, right?
KELLY
Sure, whatever
TRIP
We really want to thank you for years and years of...
GRACE
Pain.
TRIP
Heh heh heh... Agony. -- (interrupted)
KELLY
Misery?
TRIP
Uh -- I - I mean, uh, it's, uh -- it's great you could be here tonight.
(Trip shakes the advice ball.)
TRIP
Could be.
TRIP
Heh!
KELLY
Whats the eight ball say?
GRACE
(little sigh) -- (interrupted)
TRIP
Oh that -- that's just a little joke advice giver toy thing that I like to consult now and then...
TRIP
when I need a little guidance. Ha ha.
GRACE
His mother gave that to him.
TRIP
Stocking stuffer, heh.
TRIP
(clears throat)
KELLY
Awwww, how cute
GRACE
You know Trip, that little advice ball of yours doesn't look good on the bar.
TRIP
What? It's a hilarious little bar toy.
GRACE
It's lame. It's a crappy piece of plastic sitting next to your fancy crystal cocktail glasses.
TRIP
(little sigh)
KELLY
I think it is adorable
TRIP
Yeah.
GRACE
Listen to us, we're arguing in front of our friend.
TRIP
Grace, come on, it's not helping things for you to say that...
GRACE
Trip, there's nothing wrong with disagreeing in front of our friend --
TRIP
We're NOT disagreeing.
TRIP
We're -- we're -- we're not disagreeing.
TRIP
(frustrated sigh) Sheejus.
(Trip shakes the advice ball.)
TRIP
Heh... You can bet on it.
TRIP
Huh... I don't know about that...
GRACE
Trip, would you put that thing away, it's ridiculous.
TRIP
I like it, I can carry it around.
TRIP
Oh no, Kelly, I just realized... I'm sorry!
GRACE
What?!
TRIP
I haven't gotten us drinks!
GRACE
tuhh...
TRIP
Oh it's good because you will be the first to try my recently acquired set of imported drinking glasses.
KELLY
Awesome!
TRIP
Uh, w - w -- wait wait, I -- I want to make you one of my drink inventions!
GRACE
It's a secret -- Trip doesn't even like the taste of alcohol.
TRIP
What?! So, uhh,
TRIP
Kelly, how -- how does that sound?
KELLY
Get me drunk, just like prom night
TRIP
You -- you don't want my invention?
GRACE
Kelly, I think you'd prefer something simple and light, like a nice glass of chardonnay, yes?
KELLY
I do!
TRIP
Yeah, no, I'm going to make this drink for us!
TRIP
Our friend is here, we're going to enjoy ourselves, that's all there is to it!
GRACE
(frustrated sigh)
TRIP
Grace, everybody loves my drinks, you know that, don't you? Everybody!
KELLY
Sounds like fun!
GRACE
Well, of course Trip, after all, you got enough practice when you were a real bartender.
TRIP
What?
GRACE
In college, you were a bartender.
TRIP
How do you know about that?
GRACE
Oh I know you were trying to keep it a big secret, but... one time my friends and I went slumming off-campus to some crappy bar in the sticks, and we saw you there.
TRIP
Oh, that's great.
TRIP
Uhh, you're driving me insane!
TRIP
Goddamn slumming it off campus...
TRIP
You hide things from me! You're so distant! You...
TRIP
You do, you hide things from me!
GRACE
(impatient sigh) -- (interrupted)
KELLY
You hide things from her too
GRACE
What, what's that, what are you saying?
GRACE
God, what was it you said? I... am cheating...
GRACE
Kelly,
GRACE
Okay, I see you obviously think we're all screwed up, that we've got issues, is that what you think? We're all screwed up?
TRIP
Oh, Jesus...!
TRIP
Goddamn more real...
TRIP
I like my fancy drinks, okay? I like the good things in life, does that make me a bad person? Their just drinks!
GRACE
Oh, yeah, yeah, right!
TRIP
Alright, you know what, Kelly,
TRIP
I'm going to ask you something.
GRACE
Trip --
TRIP
Grace, let me ask our guest a question.
TRIP
Kelly, yes or no...
TRIP
Isn't the goal in life, and in marriage, to improve your life, to have more than you did before?
GRACE
What...?!
TRIP
I mean, shouldn't -- (interrupted)
KELLY
Yeah, of course
GRACE
Oh, yes, that's fine... that's fine...
GRACE
Trip, I can't take this denial anymore... You're suppressing yourself, you're so... fake! I hate it!
TRIP
Oh, god...!
TRIP
Uhh! Yeah, go on, go away!
KELLY
Way to be overdramatic
TRIP
I can't stand frigging looking at you!
TRIP
What the... goddammit!
KELLY
Wanna look at me Trip?
TRIP
What? uhh... w -- what are you saying?
(KELLY kisses trip.)
GRACE
What, Trip? Are you trying to talk to me?
TRIP
What's it to you?
TRIP
Hey, don't -- don't, c -- come on, come on!
GRACE
What, Trip? Are you trying to talk to me?
TRIP
I was not talking to you!
TRIP
Kelly, I can't believe this is happening...!
TRIP
uhh...
KELLY
Trip
GRACE
Kelly, from what you said before, about hiding things... I think that tells us something about Trip.
TRIP
Oh, we're talking about me, are we?
GRACE
What?
GRACE
Trip, it's your fault -- ten years ago, freshly married and just out of college,
GRACE
you convinced me to go into advertising, instead of art!
TRIP
What?
GRACE
If it weren't for you, I could be a real artist by now.
TRIP
Uhh... Kelly, uhh...
TRIP
That's bullshit.
GRACE
Uhh...
KELLY
It is
GRACE
Look, let's talk about Trip now.
GRACE
See, you lied to me, before we got married, when you said you liked art, that you respected me as an artist.
TRIP
I -- Kelly, Uhh...
KELLY
He wanted you for your body
TRIP
Look, just quit the flirting right now, I'm warning you!
GRACE
Let's keep talking about Trip.
KELLY
Sorry babe
TRIP
Grace, when we first got together you told me you dreamed of having your own fancy apartment...
GRACE
What are you talking about, I never --
TRIP
High culture, best of everything... This is what you wanted!
GRACE
Oh, God!
TRIP
Kelly, look around this apartment. It's got everything anyone would ever want. But, Grace, oh no, she's never satisfied.
GRACE
Trip, ... ugh ... I'm so sick of this.
KELLY
The apartment is beautiful
TRIP
Look around here. We're doing well, really well.
GRACE
God, Trip, I can't believe even now you're still...
TRIP
Oh yeah, you'd never admit that I've created a good life for us.
KELLY
You guys must be very wealthy
TRIP
Jesus, Kelly, you keep obsessing about Grace's stuff, you know that? (frustrated sigh)
KELLY
Sorry babe
TRIP
Okay, no, I want to focus on Grace.
TRIP
Grace, I don't think you really do want us to quit our jobs, lead a simpler lifestyle.
GRACE
What? Trip, you know what I --
TRIP
Oh come on! You grew up with a silver spoon in your mouth. You can't live any other way.
GRACE
Look, let's switch the focus to Trip.
TRIP
It's so annoying... you know lately I've been really trying to spend more time together...
TRIP
Kelly, she makes it so difficult...
KELLY
Why does she do that?
TRIP
Why?
TRIP
Ah, well good, ah, good, you want to understand, see, that helps me... See, I'm trying to fix what's wrong, Grace...
GRACE
Let's keep talking about Trip.
GRACE
Kelly, it's time that Trip finally just admits that our marriage --
TRIP
Grace, don't, no, you don't need to --
KELLY
Stop changing the subject
GRACE
Admits that -- (interrupted)
GRACE
No?
GRACE
Uhh...! God...!
GRACE
Let's talk some more about Trip.
GRACE
Kelly, every time Trip is unhappy he rushes out and buys some new gadget.
TRIP
What are you talking about? You're always buying stuff...
GRACE
Trip, you're the one -- (interrupted)
KELLY
So? Gadgets are cool
TRIP
Yes?
GRACE
Kelly, that helps him.
TRIP
Uhh... wha -- what? I just -- I just like to own the finest, that's all!
GRACE
Uhh, this is insane...
KELLY
Nothing wrong with that
TRIP
No, let's switch to talking about Grace.
GRACE
Trip, you're the reason we live like ... pretentious ...
TRIP
Like your parents, you mean! -- (interrupted)
KELLY
Like kings?
GRACE
Yes?
TRIP
Oh, I see. I'm the bastard here. Ruining poor Grace's life.
TRIP
Bullshit!
KELLY
Kings are good...
TRIP
Yes?
TRIP
Oh my God... I cannot frigging believe this... uhh...
TRIP
Oh, geez...
TRIP
Look, let's not focus on just me or you, let's talk about us both.
TRIP
Grace, I -- I want to take care of you...
GRACE
Trip...
TRIP
You've always wanted that, I know you did...
GRACE
Trip... Kelly, we... uhh...
GRACE
Let's keep talking about us, our relationship.
TRIP
You know, Grace, ever since I first proposed to you, almost ten years ago now...
GRACE
Trip...
TRIP
it's always been impossible to get you to just... just... feel happy...!
GRACE
Kelly, Trip, I... we... uhh...
KELLY
What
GRACE
Trip...
TRIP
No, I mean, I'm sure that Grace really... loves me... but -- uhh -- uhh...
TRIP
Okay, I've had enough of this bullshit!!
TRIP
Kelly, I know what you're trying to hint at...
TRIP
about me...
TRIP
about our lifestyle...
TRIP
Do you two want the truth? Huh?
KELLY
I like your lifestyle though
TRIP
No, Kelly, just, yes or no, do you want the truth?
KELLY
Sure
TRIP
Grace, huh?
GRACE
Yes...!
TRIP
See, Kelly, I've been paying attention to what you've been saying tonight.
TRIP
You've really been pushing me tonight.
TRIP
It makes me wonder if you're really my friend or not.
KELLY
Really? I have not
GRACE
Trip!
TRIP
Kelly, Quit interrupting me, let me speak!
TRIP
Kelly, come on -- yes or no...
TRIP
Do you really think that...
TRIP
kissing me...
TRIP
not defending me when I asked you if I was to blame...
TRIP
but especially what you said about having more in life and marriage...
TRIP
that it's all supposed to make me realize something about myself?
TRIP
Is all of that arguing intended to mean something, or...
TRIP
Is it? Just give me a yes or no.
KELLY
Yes, it is
TRIP
Right.
TRIP
Grace...
TRIP
uhh...
TRIP
I'm -- I'm just... af -- afraid of... of being poor.
GRACE
Poor? Trip, we have so much! What do you --
KELLY
WHAT?! Really?
TRIP
It never feels like enough!
TRIP
As a kid... it -- it was... My family was always on the edge.
GRACE
So you weren't rich, but --
TRIP
We even spent six months in a shelter once.
GRACE
Oh my God...!
KELLY
Did it have a roof?
TRIP
All of this stuff...
TRIP
Is a kind of protection from that ever happening again.
TRIP
uhh...
GRACE
uhh...
GRACE
Oh my God...!
TRIP
Kelly, I --
GRACE
Kelly, I --
TRIP
What?!
GRACE
What?!
GRACE
This changes everything...
TRIP
Yes, it does change everything.
TRIP
I think it's over.
GRACE
Trip, what --
TRIP
No!!
KELLY
Oh snap
TRIP
It's over, Grace, don't you see that?
GRACE
Wha... b -- but you just said --
TRIP
I just told you something about me I should have said a long time ago:
TRIP
I'm afraid of being poor.
TRIP
And no, Kelly, uhh, hold on...
GRACE
Trip, no, I... we...
TRIP
No, Grace, this is about me. I see now it's not about you, or about our marriage.
GRACE
Me...? Our -- our marriage...? Hey, no, wait!
TRIP
Kelly, I'm sorry. You really helped me though, so, thanks.
GRACE
Trip!
(Trip opens the front door.)
KELLY
No problem lover
(Trip closes the front door.)
GRACE
Trip!!
GRACE
Oh my God...
KELLY
Hey baby, wanna get freaky?
GRACE
I should have told him that...
GRACE
I could have told him that...
(KELLY kisses grace.)
[/code]
lol'd so hard at the end.
The first thing I said to trip was "maria" I was immediatly kicked out.
[QUOTE=sirbinks;24795507]god this game makes me feel like such a dick... I try my damnedest to fix everything and my words get all misunderstood and they end up breaking up anyway. I'm such a horrible friend :crying:[/QUOTE]
No, they're horrible friends.
I tried to get them into Half Life and they broke up :saddowns:
tell trip you prefer melon juice
trip gets offended when you ask about kids
or if you accuse him of having an affair :v:
Anyone have a mirror for this?
Hahaha, you need to see this:
Me: Codeword: MELON
Trip: Uh...haha, erm
Me: Initiate boot down sequence MELON
Trip: okay, I think it's time for you to leave
(closes door)
Me: Good robot.
Ah, I love saying melon around them.
Dammit, I can't find that video where Trip goes into the other room, then the player starts hitting on the girl and suddenly Trip comes through the wall and the guy playing starts screaming over the microphone.
I remember that video
but don't remember the name of it
[editline]04:09PM[/editline]
pretty hilarious though
okay so uh
i think i broke it
I went through and tried to be as serious as possible to get them to stay together just to see if I could without fucking up, and, well, they got stuck in a loop. I suggested Trip was cheating on Grace, and he shrugged it off, so I suggested Grace was cheating on Trip, and he flipped the hell out. Then for some reason they just stood there making urgh ugh hmf sounds and then there was silence.
Now I can't interact with either of them and they won't do anything, nor will they react to anything I say in any way, shape, or form. I'm thinking of just leaving. :v:v
[CODE]GRACE
Trip, when are you going to get rid of this?
TRIP
What, Grace... this?
GRACE
Yes, you know how I feel about it --
TRIP
I know I know I'll do it right now, alright?!
GRACE
You know I've had to ask you about this several --
TRIP
Get off my back! I'll get rid of it in just a minute!
GRACE
Fine, Trip... fine...
GONZALO
CAN'T YOU HERE ME KNOCKIN
(GONZALO knocks on the front door.)
(GONZALO knocks on the front door.)
TRIP
Oh, he's here!
GRACE
What?! You said he's coming an hour from now!
TRIP
No, he's right on time!
GRACE
Trip...!
GONZALO
LET ME IN TRIP
(Trip opens the front door.)
TRIP
Gonzalo!!
TRIP
Hey! God it's been so long since we've seen you! How are you doing, man?
GONZALO
LETS RUN THROUGH THE CORN
TRIP
Uh...
(GONZALO kisses trip.)
TRIP
Oh... you're doing the European-style greeting...
TRIP
we just got back from a trip to Italy, but the men didn't do that with each other... um...
GONZALO
MOVE TRIP
GRACE
No, no, here we are!
GRACE
Gonzalo,
GRACE
Hi! How are you? Oh it's so nice to see you, it feels like it's been forever!
TRIP
Yeah, it has been a long time. -- (interrupted)
GONZALO
Jesus your tits are saggy
TRIP
You know what, Gonzalo, that's it, you need to leave.
GONZALO
FUCK OFF
(Trip opens the front door.)
TRIP
We'll be fine -- just go.
(Trip closes the front door.)
GONZALO
MELON[/CODE]
I love how upset they get when you say melon.
I asked for a melon martini and they kicked me out of their house, lmao.
[QUOTE=Lucinice;24791882]I heard it's really easy to change the textures in the game, how do you do it?[/QUOTE]
Anyone know? I heard all you needed to do was add a bmp file the same name as the texture you want to replace but that caused the game to not statup.
It will never let me view my log, why?
Download link is broken, anyone got a mirror?

[img] http://filesmelt.com/dl/karkatfacade3.png[/img]
Well that went well.
I'm not that impressed by this game. Since I can never get a word in edgeways, I'm always interrupting them, and they just reply with an awkward "mmm, yeah," and continue with whatever they were saying. In the unlikely event that they do give me a chance to speak, it doesn't really affect them, it either advances their speech onto a seemingly random string of conversation, or they completely misinterpret it, for example I say something like "you should not break up" and then grace will say "WHAT? You're saying we should break up!? How dare you!"
It just feels like I could go into their house and be all chatty and provocative, and then go in another time and not say a word, and the outcome would be the same.
Well it has a certain structure, but there are many outcomes that are determined by your reaction to their "events".
Has anyone figured out why melon is offensive to trip?
I know why cheat, children and Maria are.
open the door. Say "Maria"
[QUOTE=famasfanalt;24813129]open the door. Say "Maria"[/QUOTE]
You still cheating on Grace with Maria? Look at the melons on her.
[QUOTE=Libertas;24812019]Has anyone figured out why melon is offensive to trip?
I know why cheat, children and Maria are.[/QUOTE]
Melon? Maybe there's a racist joke in here somewhere.
i think the creator thought that the player would mention watermelons in a racist joke.
I think I did something wrong

You need to go to the install folder and give the stageplays folder write permissions.

[QUOTE=AlienFanatic;24788018]i once played a rape victim and a druggie that was pregnant

Yeah it seems the more stoned and fucked up your character is the easier you save their marriage.
omg i got grace to leave trip
This game gets really boring sometimes so I did this out of boredom.

Uhp, he's here!

JESPER
Your face.

Well come on in...

(unintelligable arguing)
(JESPER sits on the couch.)
(JESPER puts down the advice ball.)
(JESPER picks up the advice ball.)
(The advice ball reads, "It's Definite")
GRACE
Jesper,
GRACE
Hi! How are you? Oh it's so nice to see you, it feels like it's been forever!
JESPER
It's definite.
GRACE
Oh, ha ha ha! -- (interrupted)
GRACE
And I have to say, you look great.
GRACE
Make yourself at home, come on in!
(JESPER puts down the advice ball.)
JESPER
I feel great too.
GRACE
So, -- (interrupted)
GRACE
Oh, yeah, well -- I want to ask you...
GRACE
(little sigh) You know, everybody says the view from -- (interrupted)
JESPER
Your face.
GRACE
Oh, well...
GRACE
(little sigh) So everybody loves this view...
GRACE
but I'd really rather see some trees or something... a natural green would enhance the colors of the room so much better.
TRIP
uhh...
JESPER
I will make your face the greatest...
GRACE
Ah, yes, I've been waiting for someone to say that!
TRIP
What are you talking about?
GRACE
Trip, he is just being honest about my decorating, which I appreciate.
TRIP
(frustrated sigh) But I still think this looks fine...
JESPER
I'm being honest about your face.
TRIP
Huh, y -- you two are really getting along well tonight...
TRIP
Oh, Jesper, you've got to take a look at this amazing photo from our recent trip to Italy...
GRACE
(impatient sigh) Trip...
TRIP
No Grace, our friend will love this!
JESPER
Is it a photo of your face?
(JESPER gets up from the couch.)
TRIP
Oh, yeah, yeah,
TRIP
Jesper, I have to tell you about our recent trip to Italy!
GRACE
Trip, he doesn't want to hear --
TRIP
Yeah, yeah, I'll tell you about it in a sec.
JESPER
This isn't your face.
TRIP
Y -- yeah, yeah, uh -- w -- wait...
GRACE
Jesper, come over here and sit on the couch with me.
GRACE
Trip, see, your weird obsession for Italy is making our friend uncomfortable.
(JESPER sits on the couch.)
TRIP
(little sigh) The thing is, you see, this trip to Italy... was actually our second honeymoon.
GRACE
What? Trip, you're totally exaggerating... it was just a weekend getaway.
TRIP
uhh...
JESPER
What about your face?
GRACE
W -- well, oh, never mind, it -- it was a mess.
GRACE
(big sigh)
GRACE
Jesper, you're not enjoying this are you? -- (interrupted)
JESPER
Your face is a mess.
TRIP
Y -- yeah, yeah, n - no no no, wait, uh, w - what's wrong, Grace?
GRACE
Listen to us, we're arguing in front of our friend.
TRIP
Grace, come on, it's not helping things for you to say that...
GRACE
Trip, it's okay if we disagree in front of our friend --
TRIP
Disagreeing?! We're NOT disagreeing. We're, we're not. -- (interrupted)
JESPER
You're not arguing.
GRACE
You...

You think I'm...

Ho ho ho, ha, heh you're -- you're really joking around tonight, aren't you, ha ha ha...
JESPER
No.
GRACE
Ha, yeah, ha ha...
JESPER
I'm not joking.
TRIP
Ha ha, heh, never afraid to say anything that pops into your mind, ha heh heh...
GRACE
Mmm... well, hold on.
JESPER
Your face.
GRACE
(clears throat)
GRACE
(happy but tense sigh)
GRACE
Jesper,
GRACE
you and I are getting along so well tonight...
GRACE
Stay there for a moment...
GRACE
I want your opinion. Stay there.
GRACE
Ugh, I'm getting so tired of looking at this god awful work table.
JESPER
I'm getting along with your face.
GRACE
Maybe if I replaced it with... um...
TRIP
Do you... do you remember, Grace... -- (interrupted)
(JESPER gets up from the couch.)
GRACE
What.
TRIP
How I proposed to you.
GRACE
Oh, God, Trip --
TRIP
Here, Jesper, I'll show you.
TRIP
It was at Grace's parents' house, Christmas, senior year of college --
JESPER
I remember your face.
GRACE
Trip, what are you doing?!
TRIP
I got on one knee, in front of everybody, and --
GRACE
Stop it, Trip!
TRIP
I pulled out a diamond ring --
GRACE
Trip!
TRIP
And I said, Grace, will you marry me?
JESPER
Look at her face.
TRIP
Heh, is -- is that romantic or what?!
TRIP
Jesper, yes? Very romantic?
JESPER
Her face is romantic.
GRACE
Thank you!
TRIP
What? I --
GRACE
See, Trip, not everyone thinks being proposed to like that is so romantic.
GRACE
I don't know where you get your ideas.
TRIP
Jesper,
TRIP
Grace, come on, what could be more romantic than that? -- (interrupted)
JESPER
You're so stupid.
TRIP
What?!
GRACE
Trip, Trip, it's alright, our friend is just giving you a bit of a hard time tonight, you're a man, you can take it.
JESPER
You don't listen to me.
TRIP
Oh no, Jesper, I just realized... I'm sorry!
GRACE
What?! -- (interrupted)
TRIP
I haven't gotten us drinks!
GRACE
tuhh...
TRIP
Oh it's good because you will be the first to try my recently acquired set of imported drinking glasses.
GRACE
My dad bought Trip a silver plated cocktail shaker for -- (interrupted)
JESPER
Sure.
TRIP
W - wait, I want to make you one of my drink inventions!
GRACE
It's a secret -- Trip doesn't even like the taste of alcohol.
TRIP
What?! So, uhh,
JESPER
Drinks are great.
TRIP
You -- you don't want my invention?
GRACE
Jesper, Trip's getting a little carried away... maybe you just want some juice, or a mineral water?
JESPER
I want it.
TRIP
Yeah, no, I'm going to make this drink for us!
TRIP
Our friend is here, we're going to enjoy ourselves, that's all there is to it!
JESPER
I WANT YOUR FACE.
GRACE
(frustrated sigh)
TRIP
Grace, everybody loves my drinks, you know that, don't you? Everybody!
GRACE
Well, of course Trip, after all, you got enough practice when you were a real bartender.
TRIP
What?
GRACE
In college, you were a bartender.
TRIP
How do you know about that?
GRACE
Oh I know you were trying to keep it a big secret, but... one time my friends and I went slumming off-campus to some crappy bar in the sticks, and we saw you there.
TRIP
Oh, that's great.
TRIP
Ahh, this is bullshit!
GRACE
Ahh, no, you're full of shit!
GRACE
Your big bartender secret...
GRACE
I wish you would just be yourself! Ever since I've known you, you resist just being yourself!
TRIP
(little impatient sigh) Jesper, I...
TRIP
(frustrated sigh)
GRACE
And you...
GRACE
I know what you're going to say,
GRACE
The way you keep trying to explain everything...!
TRIP
Goddamn criticisms...
TRIP
You're never satisfied with anything! You're never happy, never ever satisfied with anything.
GRACE
Oh, yeah, yeah, right!
JESPER
I'm going to say "your face."
GRACE
Alright, you know what, Jesper,
GRACE
I need to ask you something.
TRIP
Grace --
GRACE
Trip, let me ask our guest a question.
GRACE
Jesper, yes or no...
JESPER
Is it about my face?
GRACE
Do you think it's _wrong_ for one person in a marriage to listen _too much_ to the other?
TRIP
What?
GRACE
To trust your husband or wife too much, to rely on them too much? Is that wrong?
GRACE
Yes or no.
JESPER
Your face is wrong.
JESPER
You're stupid or something?
JESPER
Hello?
JESPER
What happened?
JESPER
TALK TO ME BITCH!
JESPER
Are you broken or what?
JESPER
LOOK AT MARIA'S MELONS!
JESPER
LOL
JESPER
SCREW YOU GUYS

I just kicked the doors open (Not kicked open, but just knocked and knocked and knocked and knocked) and started screaming about being in the Gestapo. They liked talking to me and then started talking about garbage. I called them nuts, and Trip started talking about sex.

(unintelligable arguing)
MEL
I'm making a note here:
TRIP
(unintelligable arguing)
GRACE
No, no, here we are!
MEL
HUGE SUCCESS!
GRACE
Mel,
GRACE
Hi! How are you? Oh it's so nice to see you, it feels like it's been forever!
TRIP
Yeah, yeah, how are you doing? -- (interrupted)
GRACE
I just asked him that...
TRIP
Well I'm asking him too!
GRACE
(frustrated sigh)
MEL
Its hard to overstate my
GRACE
Uh...
GRACE
Well, um... make yourself at home, I guess...
MEL
SATISFACTION!
GRACE
Uh...

Oh, Mel, -- (interrupted)

Aperture Science!

Mel, -- (interrupted)
MEL
Because we can!
TRIP
W -- well, come take a look!
GRACE
Mel, I'm sorry. See Trip, I knew I should never have let you put up that picture, it's making our guest uncomfortable. -- (interrupted)
MEL
For the good of all of us!
GRACE
Yeah -- yes, well, Trip can get overly obsessed.
TRIP
No, look, hey, uh, forget I mentioned it, I -- (interrupted)
MEL
Except the ones who are dead!
GRACE
N -- no, no, it was just a weekend getaway.
MEL
But there's no sense crying
TRIP
I'm gonna fix us some drinks.
TRIP
Oh and I've got these fancy new cocktail shakers I'm itching to try out.
MEL
Over every mistake!
TRIP
We should have something fun,
TRIP
like sangria?
TRIP
No...?
GRACE
Trip maybe our friend isn't as excited by your suggestion as you are.
MEL
You just keep on trying
GRACE
Mel, how about something simple, like a nice glass of chardonnay?
GRACE
Okay, good!
MEL
Till you run out of cake!
TRIP
No no, that's -- (interrupted)
TRIP
Anyway, about the drinks...
TRIP
(little sigh) Excuse me for wanting to enjoy ourselves...
MEL
And the science gets done!
TRIP
Grace, I assume you also don't want a real drink, correct? -- (interrupted)
TRIP
Well, I was just going to ask Grace what she wants.
GRACE
I'm happy to just have what our guest is having. -- (interrupted)
MEL
And you make a neat gun!
GRACE
Oh! huh... thanks...
TRIP
Oh that's nice Grace, our friend seems happy to see you again after so long.
GRACE
(clears throat)
MEL
For the people who are still alive!
TRIP
Alright Grace, yours is ready.
GRACE
Thanks.
GRACE
Alright, good, maybe you're on my side tonight after all, ha ha.
MEL
I'm not even angry!
GRACE
(big sigh)
GRACE
Oh God, Mel, I hope you didn't come here tonight to be entertained...
TRIP
What?
TRIP
Here's yours.
GRACE
It tastes good.
TRIP
Anyway...
TRIP
Grace, come on, that kind of statement is not helpful... -- (interrupted)
MEL
I'm being so sincere right now!
TRIP
Y -- yeah, yeah, no no no -- we're not disagreeing.
GRACE
You know, ever since we got married, I can't help it, I'm forever buying new furniture and redecorating, -- (interrupted)
MEL
Even though you broke my heart!
TRIP
No, no no no no no, you've got to understand, Grace loves expensive furniture, she was totally spoiled growing up,
MEL
And killed me!
TRIP
uh... -- (interrupted)
GRACE
(nervous coughing)
TRIP
that's, uh...
TRIP
you, uh...
GRACE
uuh...
TRIP
ha ha...
GRACE
ha ha ha ha ha, heh...

TRIP
Ha ha ha, Mel,
GRACE
heh heh...
TRIP
heh heh, you had me going there for a sec...
TRIP
heh, ha ha...
MEL
And threw every piece in to a fire!
TRIP
Never afraid to push your luck, heh heh heh...
TRIP
push our little buttons...
TRIP
heh heh, you're crazy, you know that?
TRIP
heh, ha ha...
MEL
As they burned it hurt because
TRIP
(big sigh)
TRIP
Uhh, any -- anyway, uh... what were we talking about?
MEL
I was so happy for you!
GRACE
(happy -- (interrupted)
GRACE
Y -- yeah, stay there for a sec.
GRACE
Ugh, I'm getting so tired of looking at this god awful armoire.
GRACE
Maybe if I replaced it with... um...
TRIP
Do you... do you remember, Grace...
GRACE
What.
MEL
Now these points of data
TRIP
How I proposed to you.
GRACE
Oh, God, Trip --
TRIP
Here, Mel, I'll show you.
TRIP
It was at Grace's parents' house, Christmas, senior year of college --
GRACE
Trip, what are you doing?!
TRIP
I got on one knee, in front of everybody, and --
GRACE
Stop it, Trip!
TRIP
I pulled out a diamond ring --
MEL
make a beautiful line
GRACE
Trip!
TRIP
And I said, Grace, will you marry me?
MEL
And we're out of beta
TRIP
Heh, is -- is that romantic or what?!
MEL
We're releasing on time!
TRIP
Oh, um, well...
GRACE
(frustrated sigh) Mel, I'm sorry you have to see this --
TRIP
Grace, I'm just kidding around, I mean I --
TRIP
I just wanted to show our friend --
MEL
So I'm glad I got burned!
GRACE
No, Trip, no, it's embarrassing, okay?
GRACE
(little sigh)
TRIP
Look, mmm... mmm... look I'm sorry...
GRACE
God.
GRACE
I don't know what's gotten into him.
MEL
Think of all the things we learned!
GRACE
(clears throat)
MEL
For the people who are Still Alive!
GRACE
Uhh, you are impossible...!
GRACE
I'm never happy...
GRACE
Trip, our whole marriage, you're so... controlling!
MEL
Go ahead and leave me.
GRACE
Huh? What, what was that? -- (interrupted)
TRIP
(little impatient sigh) Mel, can you believe this?
MEL
I think I prefer to stay inside.
GRACE
Okay, I hear you, I hear you...
GRACE
Romance... goddamn...
GRACE
Mel,
GRACE
Are you trying to say we've got problems? Or I've got problems, that this is all my fault from the start? Is that what you think?
TRIP
Oh, come on...!
GRACE
Alright, you know what, Mel,
MEL
Maybe you'll find someone else
GRACE
I'm going to ask you something.
TRIP
Grace --
GRACE
Trip, let me ask our guest a question.
MEL
To help you.
GRACE
Mel, yes or no...
MEL
Maybe Black Mesa!
GRACE
A person in a marriage should fully trust the other person, right?
TRIP
What?
GRACE
I mean, if you're married you have to completely and totally trust your spouse, right?
GRACE
Yes or no.
MEL
That was a joke, Ha Ha Fat Chance!
GRACE
What...?!
GRACE
Oh, yes, that's fine... that's fine...
GRACE
You keep trying to tell me you love me, Trip, that you're so romantic, but I know you're hiding something from me, goddammit!
TRIP
Oh, god...!
MEL
Anyway this cake is great
TRIP
Uhh! You are uncaring.
MEL
Its so delicious and moist.
TRIP
Don't talk to me.
TRIP
Uhh... what the... goddammit...
TRIP
Oh... uhh... -- (interrupted)
MEL
Look at me still talking
TRIP
What? uhh... w -- what are you saying?
GRACE
What, Trip? Are you trying to talk to me?
TRIP
I was not talking to you!
MEL
When there's science to do
TRIP
Mel, I can't believe this is happening...!
TRIP
uhh...
MEL
When I look up there it makes me
GRACE
Mel, (annoyed sigh) Trip can just be so...
TRIP
Oh ho, so we're talking about me, are we?
MEL
glad I'm not you.
GRACE
What?
TRIP
Look, let's talk about us both, not just one of us.
GRACE
Let's talk some more about us, our relationship.
MEL
I've experiments to run!
TRIP
Grace, I'm not 'acting' when I'm being romantic... God damn...!
GRACE
(frustrated sigh)
MEL
There is research to be done!
TRIP
Mel, if there's something about me, just tell me what it is!
TRIP
You know, I can't say Grace never acts loving towards me...
TRIP
Mel, She's all over me at our goddamn parties, trying to look good in front of the guests! -- (interrupted)
MEL
On the people who are Still Alive!
TRIP
Who?
TRIP
Ah, thank you, just saying that helps us...
TRIP
See, Mel, her acting loving is the only reason I like our stupid parties.
MEL
And believe me I am Still Alive
TRIP
Look, I think we should focus on Grace.
TRIP
Grace, I don't think you really do want us to quit our jobs, lead a simpler lifestyle.
GRACE
What? Trip, you know what I --
TRIP
Oh come on! You grew up with a silver spoon in your mouth. You can't live any other way.
MEL
I'm doing Science and I'm Still Aliv
GRACE
Mel, oh my god, you can't believe... Ugh!
MEL
I feel FANTASTIC
TRIP
Yes?
GRACE
Why is this happening? Why is he doing this to me?
MEL
And I'm Still Alive
GRACE
Uhh...
GRACE
No, just give me a second, please... uhh...
MEL
While you're dying I'll be Still Aliv
GRACE
Mel, this is so...
MEL
And when you're dead I will be
TRIP
Let's continue focusing on Grace.
GRACE
Damn it, Trip, -- (interrupted)
TRIP
Okay, Mel, I think this evening is over, you've got to leave.
MEL
STILL ALIVE
(Trip opens the front door.)
TRIP
We'll be fine -- you just have to go.
MEL
STIL ALIVE
(Trip closes the front door.)
MEL
STILL ALIVE![/code]
Yep. It worked.
