Quiet Car


A train station. BILL walks from the platform into the waiting room; looks up at the board announcing trains. Starts to walk off.
SALLY appears behind him.
SALLY
Wait!
Bill hesitates, then continues.
SALLY
Please wait!
Bill turns.
SALLY (cont’d)
I just want to talk to you.
BILL
Talk?
SALLY
Talk. With you.
BILL
Why?
SALLY
Does that seem so strange? We see each other every day...
BILL
I have to--
SALLY
Why don’t you want to talk to me? You look at me.
BILL
Me?
SALLY
Of course you do. Every day, in the Quiet Car.
BILL
In the--
SALLY

On the train. You know we sit in the Quiet Car, don’t you? So I can’t talk to you there.
