       The Cobbler gets her wallet from the Kid.

      Two pieces.

       The Cobbler gives the Doctor two cards. The Doctor returns a card.

      This is expired. Health card.

       The Cobbler gives the Doctor her health card.

      You must be the shoemaker.

      COBBLER: I’m his daughter.

      DOCTOR: You’re not the shoemaker?

      COBBLER: Yes. My dad was the original shoemaker, like a true maker of shoes. That’s what he did. There’s some confusion. I am also a shoemaker.

      DOCTOR: Yeah, well, you are what you do.

      COBBLER: Or don’t do.

      DOCTOR: No. You are not what you don’t do.

      COBBLER: Well, I mostly make boots.

      DOCTOR: Cordovan, what’s that / Spanish?

      COBBLER: / Spanish. Extraction. It is. However, my first given name is after a quality my parents hoped I would embody and my middle given name is after my father, who was named after my grandmother’s lover, who was a film actor in the Westerns. The Italian Westerns.

      DOCTOR: I prefer the originals.

      COBBLER: Some people do.

      DOCTOR: Kurosawa.

      COBBLER: Some people don’t consider those the originals.

      DOCTOR: You speak Spanish?

      COBBLER: It comes to me when I need it.

      DOCTOR: Yo chingué a tu madre. I fucked your mother. That’s all I know how to say.

      COBBLER: My mother was from New Brunswick.

      DOCTOR: I grew up in New Brunswick.

       An improvisation where the Cobbler and Doctor continue about New Brunswick until a commonality is found. Perhaps a common thing they don’t know – the Cobbler has never been.

      I’d like to go back but I’m afraid of getting shot. I wear a bullet-proof vest – rabbit and Kevlar. I’ll show you later. I’m going to need you to fill out these forms. I’m going to call in your health card and eat a power bar.

      Who’s this?

      COBBLER: This is Everett the Kid.

      KID: How do you do.

      DOCTOR: I don’t want any trouble around here.

      COBBLER: She’s very reliable.

      DOCTOR: Good for you.

       The Doctor goes.

      COBBLER: (to Kid) It’s okay.

       Two: Return of my Sister

       The Cobbler and Kid sit in clinic chairs. The Cobbler fills out forms. The Kid flips through a fashion magazine.

      Конец ознакомительного фрагмента.
