[BRITTAIN (DUNYAZAD)] Scheherazade was ending the story for the night:
[GELSEY (SCHEHEREZADE)] "And so Rose left the shop with a brand new camera And the number of the subway driver written on her arm" But now the sun is rising And that is all I am permitted to say Do you like my story, Shah Zaman?
[BRENT (SHAH ZAMAN)] It is a marvelous tale!
[BRITTAIN] What a good, sweet story it is! You are a real Scheherezade
[GELSEY] How can this compare To the story I shall tell you tomorrow night If the Shah spares me, and I am still alive?
[BRENT] When I kill you, I will miss you.
[GELSEY] How will you grieve for me, o Shah?
[BRENT] I will command a great feast for the kingdom With the largest boar that the court has ever seen And great oaken casks full of honey sweet wine And we'll toast to the could-have-been Queen
And when the feast is in full swing And the butterfly jesters are dancing I will take the largest cask back to my room
And I'll drink all alone in my room And I'll cry like a baby And I'll drink so much I'll get sick And I'll lie on the bathroom floor And I'll drink some more
And I'll keep drinking For forty-two years And old, old man All alone in his chair Watching game shows Making fun of the contestants For their stupid answers And their wasted lives
[BRITTAIN & GELSEY] A wasted sack of a man An empty brown paper bag Soggy and gross
[BRENT] If you can lose your temper Then I can lose my mind If you can lose your temper Then I can lose my mind
[ALL] If you can lose your temper Then I can lose my mind If you can lose your temper Then I can lose my mind
[DAVE (ASTRONOMER)] Come look at the stars, dear Pearl Come look at the stars, dear Pearl
[BRITTAIN (ROSE RED)] How could you. Sister, how could you?
[GELSEY (PEARL WHITE)] He likes my singing. He likes my singing, that's all.
[DAVE] Wait, wait, Rose Red, we were never-- we never--
[BRITTAIN] I always knew you were shallow I always knew you didn't know me I always knew you didn't believe in me I always knew that I bored you I always knew I wasn't pretty enough to hold you I always knew you'd go with someone smarter than me I always knew your mind was elsewhere I always knew you were a snob I always knew you had your head in the stars I always knew you and your books-- You and your fucking books! I am not a puzzle! I'm not some fucking logic puzzle for you to figure out! I am not a fucking game! Why don't you just go fuck your books? Why don't you just go fuck all your fucking books?! And we'll see who's smarter We'll see
[BRENT (BEAR)] Do you have the things I asked for? One pot of honey One piece of stardust One secret baptism And a photo of a ghost?
[BRITTAIN] Hello there, Bear I have the things you asked I had to go through several lifetimes to get them And now I'm in your cave In my sexy red cloak
[BRENT] I know, little girl And now I'm gonna eat you up Eat you up, eat you up like berries
[BRITTAIN] But will you do what I asked? Maul the astronomer? Turn my sister into a crow?
[BRENT] I am not a murderer Or a crazy person I just like honey
[GELSEY & DAVE] He just likes honey
[BRENT] You'll have to do it yourself! Now go away, little girl
[BRITTAIN] I hate you!
