MARTHA: Hey, Donna, wait up! Can we talk for a minute?
DONNA: Hi, Martha. what’s up? How was Christmas?
MARTHA: Awful. I got an F in Algebra II for the semester. If I don’t bring the grade up to a C by the end of te spring semester I’ll have to go to summer school and I won’t get to graduate. So I was wondering if you could maybe tutor me two or three times a week, the way you did Renee and Alex last year.
DONNA: Sure. I charge $40 a session.
MARTHA: Really? That…that’s a lot.
DONNA: It lets me not have to work at Starbucks and it’s gonna let me buy a car.
MARTHA: Still…no friendship discount?
DONNA: Well…the thing is, we haven’t been close since middle school. And I have a lot of client. I admit I’d rather look at you for 6 hours a week than the football players, but I have to be practical.
MARTHA: I’m the same way. Tell you what. You know Leslie moved to Memphis, so I’m flying solo. How about you give me a discount and I’ll take you to prom.
DONNA: What…what makes you think I can’t get a prom date.
MARTHA: Um…well. Please don’t make me say it.
DONNA: Yeah. Okay, you’re right. I wasn’t really planning on going to prom, but I’d like to if it means being seen with you. Just tell me what you mean by date?
MARTHA: A regular prom date. Haven’t you…sorry. I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have put it like that. I promise I am not trying to be mean. I’m not one of thse girls. Anyway, I mean we get dressed up, we wear corsages, we do the picture thing, I pick you up and drive you there, we dance,
DONNA: So that’s all. Because…um…I know I like girl and everything, but I haven’t ever done anything. And you’re way hotter than me. You probably wouldn’t want to–
MARTHA: Here’s a secret. All I’ve done is kiss. I’ve kissed enough to know tha guys are gross and girls are awesome, but my pants always stay on. I’m still…still thinking about some things. So I won’t pressure you and you won’t pressure me. I will kiss you good-night, that’s all. I wouldn’t do any more if you were Selena Gomez. So is that worth a 50% discount?
DONNA: Being seen with you on the dance floor is worth a hundred percent discount. Shake on it?
MARTHA: Kiss on it. But just on the cheek.
