"Wait, so you married him again? And I'm STILL not you maid of honor?"

"No, we didn't get married again. We just didn't get divorced."

"You signed divorce papers."

"Yes, but they weren't processed."

"..."

"Katie? You there?"

"Seriously? You're going to have to have a wedding."

"We HAD a wedding."

"You HAVE to have another! Look, I don't think you understand! I already bought the dress off PoshMark! A Badgley Mischka! It fits like a dream!"

"Katie, you already bought your maid of honor dress to MY wedding? You are totally screwing with me."

"I just sent you the picture."

"Holy shit, you did. But that doesn't mean..."

"Alicia Andersen St. Georges Scott! I've known you since 4th grade. The time you gave yourself a mullet? The time you tried peach schnapps? The time you died your va-jay-jay Manic Panic pink?! I HAVE PICTURES."

"That's blackmail!!"

"Damn straight. Now I'm coming back to the States in June and I expect to be your maid of honor. Are we clear?"

"You're horrible."

"Oh, and now that you're rich, I need you to help me save the Great Barrier Reef. I think this is my calling, Ali."

"Oh, fine."

"Fine you'll have a wedding or at least reception where I can wear the most amazing dress? Or fine you'll help me save the reef?"

"Both. Just come back safe."

"Naomi? Naomi can you hear me?"

The actress pulled the earplugs down with an exasperated sigh. At the back of her head, a hair stylist was flat ironing her hair. At her side, a make-up specialist was matching her nail polish to a nearby costume.

"What?" she sighed. 

"Naomi, that guy called again - Finn? Swears he's your boyfriend. He sent the management team pictures."

"He doesn't have any pictures worth blackmailing me over."

"No, no - just of the two of you being cutesie."

"Will Disney have a problem if those are released?"

"Doubt it."

"Then ignore him."

"He sounds kind of desperate."

"He should. He lost the best thing that ever happened to him! And now I'm starring on the Disney hit of the year!"

"Gotcha. So no call back?"

"Send him an autographed picture."

"Will do."

"You hate it."

"I don't hate it."

"Maggie, I know that expression. You hate it."

"Well, it IS kind of boxy."

"It's supposed to be. It's a neo-modernist statement in juxtaposition of the waterfall and rocks and natural curves of the lot. The addition will be completely organic."

"You promised me sunny windows and a big garden."

"That's coming with the addition."

"The bedrooms are dark."

"They have light from the main room."

"It's basically a cave."

"Eventually, this will be my office, OK? The addition will open all this up and you'll practically have a waterfall in your bathroom."

"I want an ACTUAL waterfall in my bathroom."

"..."

"Marco, tell me I'm going to have a garden and sunlight and a view of a waterfall from every room."

"You will."

"And..."

"And a waterfall in the bathroom. Yes."

"OK, then I love it. When do we move in?"

*********************************************

"Querida?"

"Wait."

"Ummmm don't think I can."

"I think I heard something."

"Me, you heard me. Come back here, please?"

"Jeb, I'm serious! I heard something!"

"Oh, for..."

"Come help me."

"But I've got this SITUATION!"

"Don't guys have a way to...?"

"Yes, it's called a wife. And if you would just give me a minute..."

"Jeb!"

"30 SECONDS! OK?"

"Jeb, something's moving in the kitchen."

"No there isn't or the security camera would have alerted us."

"The intruder is low to the ground. Is the camera ready for THAT?"

"Oh..All right, let me at least grab...wait, where did you get that crowbar?"

"The closet."

"Yet you're still naked."

"All right, I'm going..."

"Oh, for shit's...hang on!"

"AIIIIIIYYYYYYEEEE! OH FUCK!" 

"What is it! I'm here! What is it!!"

"Mommy? Hungry!"

"Crap!"

"Mommy!! You nudie!"

"Yes, baby, Mommy nudie. You hungry? Daddy will get you a banana."

"Pear!"

"Banana."

"Daddy! You nudie! Wiggle-waggle!"

"Yes, yes, now off to bed with you..."

"WIGGLE WAGGLE!"

"Alicia, I swear to God, we need another honeymoon."
