from VENDETTA CHROME
​VENDETTA
Mrs. Bosworth, I've been reading your book--

BOSWORTH
Dear Lord.

VENDETTA
And I am intrigued by some of the positions you mention.
I got some more ideas for my routine that I thought we could add

​BOSWORTH
Like what.​
​VENDETTA
The darker passions

.BOSWORTH
I see.
VENDETTA
We already have Surprise and Laughter,
Salvation, Submission, and Listening--
But what I want to try is
[she shuffles through the poses in “shorthand” as she mentions them]
Horror
Flight
Accusation
and Grief!

​BOSWORTH
Mmhmm.

VENDETTA
And. Of course, the Dancing Girl!

[VENDETTA strikes the pose of the Dancing Girl. It looks a little like a frozen Irish jig and causes her to blush.]

BOSWORTH
I never intended that young ladies would make use of the humors in that way.

VENDETTA
But it’s all right there in your book!

BOSWORTH
That’s my early work.
