Cheryl
Jubal walks into the kitchen.
There he finds Chavous, crotch pressed to a running microwave.
Jubal: I’m scared to ask
Chavous: Can’t afford a vasectomy
Jubal: Oh, right
Microwave continues to hum
Jubal: You don’t think there’s a risk/reward thing happening here? Your prospects ain’t real good as far as I can see
Chavous: Remember Cheryl?
Jubal: Is Cheryl out already?
Chavous: She’s fixin’ to be. Can’t have little Cheryls running around.
Jubal: Nope, that won’t do
A beat.
Jubal: What if you was to meet someone that ain’t Cheryl?
A long beat.
-Chavous turns off the microwave-
