TIIE BELOVED DEARLY 17
(ERNIE notices something else in DUSTY's suitcase and points at it.)
ERNIE. What's that. What else you got in that suitcase?
DUSTY. More magic.
ERNIE. What is it?
(DUSTY reaches into his suitcase and raises a milk carton project, decorated with yellow feathers and shiny pop-tops and spangles.)
DUSTY. A Crystal Capsule for Kirsten's Canary.
ERNIE. Excellent. Only Kirsten's Canary isn't dead.
DUSTY. Yet. She was looking peaked last time I stopped by. Just staying ahead of the demand.
ERNIE. You're good. You're very good.
DUSTY. And it's gonna cost you $2.50.
ERNIE. You're learning fast. Just tell me one thing, Dusty.
'This Swimming Pool. She gonna be able to cry?
DUSTY. Swimming Pool? Only seen her cry once. But
when Swimming Pool cries, she means it.
