(LOTTO LADY bursts in, cuts in front of SOCCER MOM.) Lotto: All right, I wanna play my numbers. 13, 22, 23— Mom: Excuse me— Lotto: 46, 66, powerball 7. Mom: I was told to wait in line. Lotto: And I got about 2 minutes to get my numbers before I’m too late to win my $370 million, so you better not be thinkin’ about telling me how I gotta wait on you. Mom: Sir— Lotto: Don’t talk over me. He ain’t gonna help you. He gets a percentage if I win. That’s the law. (CLERK comes back from putting the excess money in the safe.) Clerk: All right, money’s in the safe. Twenty’s in the drawer. Can I help who’s next? Mom: Look, I just need directions. I just want to go home. Lotto: You gonna cut in front of me now? Did you see what she did? Do you see that?? It’s a conspiracy. Mom: I just want to get out of here. I’m lost. I’m on the wrong side of town. Lotto: Oh! I did not just hear you cut up in front of me and call my whole side of town “wrong”. Mom: I’m sorry, that’s not what I meant. Lotto: What’s wrong with it, huh? Mom: Nothing, I’m sure it’s lovely.
