Kim Minkus
CHARACTERS:
Kinder: A monster
Morgan: Another monster
Questions: Part 4 of a series, (a bi-polar production)
Kinder and Morgan are obviously exhausted and are lying on a couch in an office. The coffee table in front of them is filled with take-out food containers and empty beer cans.
Kinder: How many more questions are there?
Morgan: Combined… about 703.
Kinder: Oh God, I’m going to die.
Morgan: Let’s try to do a few more.
Kinder: Can’t we just stop now? That’s what we did last time.
Morgan: Whose questions do you have again?
Kinder: Burnaby’s
Morgan: I think we answered about a half last time so we’ll do the same this time.
Kinder: Ok, but there’s no way I’m giving them any more paperwork about the spill thing. I’m done.
Morgan: I already told them “no” and the NEB backs us on that one – of course they usually back us no matter what we do.
Kinder: What’s the next question?
Morgan: “What emergency preparedness plan does the company have in place in the event of an earthquake?”
Kinder: As if….
Morgan: I think we can safely skip that one.
Kinder: Oh – here’s one from Burnaby….”Does the company have any means of detecting groundwater contamination ?”
Morgan: What’s groundwater?
Kinder: I think it might be related to drinking.
Morgan: Drinking what?
Kinder: Water.
Morgan: Not that again.
Kinder: So what’s our answer?
Morgan: Let’s skip it.
Kinder: We can’t skip every question.
Morgan: No, just every second question.
