[MENDEL, spoken]
Hello?
This is Mendel Weisenbachfeld
Trina, how are you?
Uh-huh. Uh-huh
[TRINA]
Dr. Mendel, please
Dr. Mendel, vis-a-vis what Marvin did
Or rather, hasn't done
You must exorcise a devil
'Cause it inhabits Marvin's son
[TRINA]
Please come to our house
And talk a bit with Jason
It's a slight exaggeration
But he's sick in the head
Oh, sure
Sometimes, you'll think he's wonderful
But he's wild
I'm sure he's Marvin's child
[JASON]
What should I say to the man?
Should I be mean to the man?
[TRINA]
Just be yourself
[JASON]
I'll be myself?
[TRINA]
Stop asking questions. Be yourself
[JASON]
I'll be myself!
[TRINA]
Don't be disgusting. Be yourself!
Go, go, go, go
[JASON]
Hello to my house
So good of you to travel
On account of my unraveling
Now let's eat some food
[MENDEL, spoken]
Let's talk
[TRINA]
I think, before the food gets cold
[MENDEL]
Time to jaw
First, I'll extend my paw
I think she's holding it so tenderly
I'll probably faint
If so
I'd rather die in this position
Than remain the saint
You think
You know
I'm not
Although
I must be showing better-than-the-norm restraint
[TRINA, MENDEL, & JASON]
Oh, what a lovely table
Such a romantic table
Knives in place
Lots of space
To spread out and eat
Notice how our eyes discreetly
[TRINA, MENDEL, & JASON, in a round]
Please come to our house
The dinner's on the table
We will talk if we are able to
But probably we won't
We sit
[MENDEL]
The kid looks pretty miserable
[JASON]
Uninspired
[MENDEL, appreciating JASON'S attitude]
Ain't that the truth?
[TRINA, MENDEL, & JASON]
We're tired
[MENDEL]
I think the room looks just a wee bit small
[TRINA]
This girl agrees
[MENDEL AND JASON]
Adieu
[TRINA]
I'll wait outside
And hold the food
[MENDEL]
I do not eat at all at times like these
[TRINA, to JASON]
The worst is through
[MENDEL]
There's work to do
[TRINA, to MENDEL]
I'll wait
[MENDEL, looking at TRINA, then turning to the audience]
She'll wait
[JASON]
They'll wait
[TRINA]
I'll wait for you
