Clout finally calls Trio back while Willow Smiths song “Meet Me At Our Spot” plays in the background.

Clout

Hi.

Trio

Man I thought you’d never call back. Was worried about you.

Clout

I’m fine. I was just checking out the Will Smith and Chris Rock situation. Will slapped the heck out of Chris Rock on stage at the Oscars for insulting his wife Jada. And told him to keep his wife’s name out of his effing mouth.

Trio

Say what? Oh my God.

Clout

Yes. And then he won his first Oscar the same night. So many emotions. The passion. The anger. The joy. The betrayal. The backlash. The uncertainty and the love. And then a couple of days later Chris Rock starts his comedy tour.

Trio

That’s too controversial for me. I wonder how his wife feels being directly in the middle of things.

Clout

That’s too much controversy for you? What would you say if I asked you to marry me?

Trio

Maybe. Hurry back and ask me.

Clout

As soon as I can.

Trio

Oh my God! Will Smith just retired from the academy awards.

Clout

You’re kidding. Talk about showmanship. Theater at it’s finest. He and Chris have been quite the show for the last few days.

Trio

Yes. (Clears throut). Yes I’ll marry you.

Clout

I’ll be on a flight as soon as I can.

Trio

Ok. Ooooh honey. Bruce Willis retired also.

Clout

Noooo. Shut. UP.
