The scene opens on a park bench with two men sitting on either end.
Aaron: (to the other fellow) Hello there. My name is Zocor.
Beetle: Funny, you look a lot like my brother and tormentor Aaron.
Aaron: That is one of my gifts, the ability to be seen as whomever I wish.
Beetle: Why would you want to appear as a loser like Aaron?
Aaron: Loser you say?
Beetle: Not just me. Anyone who knows him will say the same thing.
Aaron: Perhaps I should appear as Beetle.
Beetle: I already have that gig.
Aaron: You could certainly improve. This display seems weak.
Beetle: It may just be your vision. Where are your glasses?
Aaron: You have them on, Aaron.
Beetle: How did you know it was me, Aaron.
Aaron: Because you're sitting alone.
Beetle stands and walks off to his left.
Aaron stares forward silently.
