Tim: Who's there?
Personification of the Future: It's me, THE FUTURE.
Tim: Oh...
A beat.
Personification of the Future: Can I come in? I'm like now, and such.
Tim: Actually, could you come back a little later?
Personification of the Future: Oh. It's just - I kind of have a schedule here.
Tim: I wasn't expecting you at all. I mean, it's a little rude. You know?
Personification of the Future: I didn't...I didn't mean to be rude. I'm sorry.
A beat.
Tim: I just wasn't ready for you yet. I still have Netflix and Thai food and naps to take.
Personification of the Future gives a sigh, then a resigned chuckle.
Personification of the Future: I can come back later, I guess. But next time, you gotta be ready, okay?
Tim: Thanks, Future.
Personification of the Future: It's actually THE FUTURE. So.
Tim: Oh yeah, yeah, THE FUTURE. Sorry.
Personification of the Future exits.
Tim: Oh God, who's there now?
Personification of Shame from Past Failures: You know who it is.
Tim gives a sigh eerily similar to the Personification of the Future's sigh.
Tim: Come on in.
Personification of the Future and Personification of Shame from Past Failures and Tim hold hands in stage center.
All: Comedy or Tragedy? You be the judge!
