No way, it was something on the floor and I . .

Faye, looks on the floor:
Yeh, I see it, there it is . . .

Danielle: What are you talking about Faye, nothing there.

Sarah: Nothing I can see.

Faye: Can’t figure out how y’alls can’t see it . .

Danielle: OK Faye, you know full well there’s not one thing on the floor Thelma could have tripped on!

Faye: You ladies are soooooo blind! . .  Anyone can see that rug monster lurking right over there! (points at area where they came onstage)

Danielle and Sarah look at Faye in shock

Danielle: What are you talkin’ about rug monster?

Danielle, laughing:
You two need protection against the guys in the long white coats who will come and haul you away to the happy farm.

Thelma, fiendish:
Will you  . .  . protect me . . . Danielle?

Danielle, smile:
Will more likely give your address and phone number to the guys in the long white coats.

Faye, fake deep emotion:
Who will protect my friend Thelma?

Thelma, fakes emotion:
Oh woe is me!

Sarah: Oh brother! . . .

Thelma and Faye sing to tune of “GhostBusters”

When you’re all alone
In the middle of the night
Who you gonna call?
Pro-tec-tors

Danielle. to Sarah:
Who are these people?
