“Stupid alarm clock. No breakfast today. Late again! Terrific!”
(light turned on. Jed's cell phone rings.)
“Hey, Buddy! Where you been? Under a rock? Ha Ha. What? A boulder! On your car? You okay? Of course. I’ll let you know.” Terrific.
(at work. phone rings)
“Claims, Insley Insurance ,Jed Hines speaking. Oh, hello, Sir. Um, yessir, his car, total loss. Yessir. I know, sir. My third client claim this month. Yessir. Sorry, sir. Last one, I hope. Yessir. Good-bye. Sheesh!”
(phone rings)
“Claims, Oh, hi, son. Hate to tell me what! Oh! You okay? Well, that’s goo…in your Mom’s car???” (Sigh) Of course we have insurance, it’s just … Never mind. You can tell me how it wasn’t your fault when I get home, okay? Yes, I’ll talk to her. Bye.
Terrific!”
