Claire smiles.<br />
CLAIRE<br />
I’m sorry, did you say your name<br />
was Jim or Gem?<br />
JEM<br />
Both actually. Teachers always<br />
used to say, ‘You can have this<br />
one, he’s a real gem.’ It kind of<br />

JEM<br />
So what do you do for yourself<br />
there, Claire?<br />
Claire takes up her lemonade. Her lips move to the<br />
straw. She takes a long draw as Doug looks on, helpless.<br />
CLAIRE<br />
I work in a bank.<br />
JEM<br />
Oh yeah? Which one?<br />
CLAIRE<br />
Cambridge Merchants.<br />
JEM<br />
Wasn’t that the one -- ?<br />
CLAIRE<br />
We were robbed, yeah.<br />
JEM<br />
Yeah, I read about that. So how’d<br />

CLAIRE<br />
Um... we met in a Laundromat.<br />
JEM<br />

CLAIRE<br />

either.<br />
JEM<br />
Oh, you can’t believe a word he<br />
says, Claire.<br />
