2.1: Nora's Room
[knock at door]
ROSIE [yelling through door]
Nora, I brought you coffee, wake up!
NORA
Eh? Oh! My alarm! What happened?
ROSIE
Well, get dressed, we have to go; classes start in twenty minutes!
NORA [still half asleep]
I'm coming, I'm coming.
[crashes from inside the room]
NORA [to herself]
Ouch!
[door opens]
NORA
Alright, ready!
ROSIE
Coffee?
NORA
Thanks.
[footsteps down stairs]
ROSIE
Good morning, everyone.
MAGGIE [giggles]
Nora watered the plant with her coffee! I want to try!
DEE [exhasperated, dishes clattering in the background]
Maggie, put my coffee down! Nora, you could have said you don't drink coffee.
HERBERT
But this way is so much more entertaining. That one by the door looks a little droopy if you're looking to give away tomorrow's coffee
NORA
Sorry, Dee. I don't drink coffee.
DEE
Well, for goodness sake, speak up next time. There's oatmeal in the thermos for each of you, now get walking! You're going to be late.
ROSIE
Tell Dmitri that we're not waiting for him
DEE
You didn't even beat Dmitri, he left ten minutes ago.
ROSIE [grumbles indistinctly, then]
Let's go, Nora
-theme song-
2.2: Campus Building 1
[bustling students in the background]
ROSIE
Here's your Shakespeare class. Gotta run to Russian Studies, so I'll catch up after class [suddenly dejected] Oh, there's Dmitri, I didn't know he was in this class too...
NORA
See you later, Rosie.
[walks into class]
NORA
Hello Dmitri, I didn't know you were in this class
DMITRI
Nora, hello. Well, it fulfills the English requirement. And I hear the ladies love it when you quote for them.
NORA [grumbles]
That's debatable
PROFESSOR [walks in and slams door]
Save the conversations for after class, please, so as not to insult those among us who have no one to talk to
[Dmitri and Nora laugh quietly]
PROFESSOR [voice trailing off]
Now to begin...
2.3: Dee's House; kitchen
DMITRI
Dee! We're home!
NORA
Rosie? Why are you standing on a chair?
ROSIE [aggravated]
Don't ask.
DMITRI
Oh no, run!
DEE [overly cheerful]
Dmitri! and Nora! How good of you to join us
DMITRI
Ooh, too late.
DEE [sings]
It's catering night!
ROSIE
The part of the housing agreement that you probably didn't think about. That you probably thought might be fun.
NORA
I didn't know it involved uniforms.
DEE
Here, Nora, try this one on. Darn; all out of pins. [calls from next room] Dmitri, go change into yours.
DMITRI
Ouch! Dee, your precious little niece is throwing cookies at me!
[Maggie giggles]
NORA
Alright, I'll be right back.
DMITRI
Eh, I think I lost--
DEE [returns]
No, it just got back from the cleaners; it's hanging in your closet. Oh, I love the first event of the year.
[Dmitri's footsteps fade upstairs]
DEE
So much excitement. And so much to do, so everyone chop chop!
ROSIE
Ouch, Dee, you poked me!
DEE
Sorry, dear. [Nora enters] Oh Nora, don't you look lovely.
HERBERT
Ha, she looks like a penguin, just like the rest of us.
DEE
No, no need to stand on a chair, hon, I'm not that tall. Alright, Rosie, you can go change now.
ROSIE
Finally.
HERBERT
Dmitri, my boy, looking sharp! Isn't he handsome, Nora?
NORA
Well, he looks better, at any rate.
2.4: Party
DEE
Nora, stand up straight, slouching is unacceptable.
DMITRI [mocks quietly]
Yeah, Nora, head up, shoulders back, don't want you looking like some slouch.
ROSIE [grumbles]
Like you're one to talk.
DEE
I heard that, Dmitri. Ah Rosie, you're back. Good. Everyone has their dinners?
ROSIE
Yeah. Everyone's happy as a clam.
DEE
Wonderful. I love catering events; so much fun, don't you think?
ROSIE
Yeah, remember Dmitri's first party? [slurs words]Eh, which way to the balcony, I think I need some air.
[all laugh]
DMITRI
Yeah, and then I tried to kiss her, imagine that!
ROSIE
Hrmph.
NORA
Yeah, imagine.

A quick note on formatting: basically, it gets annoying after a while, especially when typing BBCode tags, because format doesn't transfer well from word. So for a while at least, I'm going to be lazy and put in brackets what was formerly in italics. :bows: Thank you.
