3.2 continues
Celeste (entering): Neither exists. There's compassionate logic or complacency and stupidity. And sadly I think our Steve is opting for the latter. He insists on sitting in jail till he sees the judge—perhaps tomorrow. I don't know if he thinks he is paying his dues, atoning for his sins, or proving his manhood, but it is stupid. Pah!
Marie: Oooh, what is he thinking to spend the night in jail.
Matt: Well at least you have a good replacement in Marie. Hey, that's right she was replacing you as well. She makes a mean Margarita.
Anne: Oh for god's sakes Matt.
Celeste (eyeing Marie): Vraiment? C'ést bon.
Marie: I don't want to take Steve's job.
Celeste: I somehow think he may not be coming back. But, that we can wait to see.
Marie: And now that you're back, I need to get Gil, can you call a taxi?
Anne: We can give you a lift Marie.
Matt: Uh . . .
Anne: I'll give you a lift, Matt's started to make a night of it.
Marie (hesitates): Well . . . I don't want to impose.
Celeste (an actual phone in hand): Well?
Anne: Please, I'd like to.
Marie: Ok, sure, thank you. (Celeste hangs up the phone)
Anne (kissing Matt on the head): See you soon love. Ready?
Marie: Ok? Thank you Monsieur.Thanks Celeste.
Matt: Hurry back I'm ready for another.
Celeste: Tell Gil he's a lucky man. In lots of ways. (Marie smiles, looks to Monsieur whose head is again on his arms).
Marie: I think he's asleep. He said he was very tired earlier. If I'm not back for the launch have a good time all. And wake Monsieur; he said he wanted to see it.
Chorus of good-byes.
