[ Amber at self-checkouts, looking in Hithe's direction. ]
[humming] HITHE: What a nice day!
KRISTYN: Yeah, it was…
HITHE: Hey! What's that suppose to mean?
KRISTYN: Nothing, calm down Mr.
HITHE: Oh, sorry…guess I need to relax a little
Things have been a little crazy this week
KRISTYN: Yeah? Well, I have an idea that just
might help you out… [leans in closer]
HITHE: Oh really, and what's that? [starts to smile]
KRISTYN: Go tanning…that always relaxes me
And you do look a little pale... [walks away]
[approaches Amber] SKI: Boo!
AMBER: Don't do that!
SKI: Sorry, what you looking at anyway?
Oh, I see…
AMBER: What?
SKI: It can't be…
[smiles] AMBER: Can't be what?
SKI: Oh nothing, but I think I just figured
something out
[Mark appears] AMBER: OK? Anyways, what is he doing?
SKI: Who? [sees Mark] Oh…
No clue, but I'm gonna get some carts….
[ Passes Mark, who comes over & starts talking to other employees. ]
[ Kristyn's in back, Hithe comes up to her. ]
KRISTYN: Are you following me?
HITHE: Of course not…
KRISTYN: Really, why are you back here then?
HITHE: Just bringing up some bags…
KRISTYN: Oh, isn't that the 'baggers' job?
HITHE: Well, we're short today. So, how's it going?
KRISTYN: Fine
HITHE: Really? You don't seem fine
KRISTYN: [talks louder] I am!
HITHE: O-K sorry, I'll see you later then…[walks off]
[ Back up front, Amber sees Mark looking out the window. ]
AMBER: Ski, come here!
[comes inside] SKI: What?
AMBER: I don't know if you noticed
But sometimes Marks stares at you…
SKI: Oh yeah? He's probably just looking for me
So he can give me another one of those employee
appreciation things…
AMBER: Since when do they 'appreciate' here?
SKI: I don't know…you've never gotten one?
It's a $3 scan coupon…
AMBER: No, I've never even seen them
SKI: Really? I get them all the time
…It helps pay for my lunch
AMBER: Well, aren't you special…
[ Ski walks toward Mark, Amber watches while he slowly starts to pass him. ]
MARK: Oh Ski, I've been meaning to give you this…
Just to say thanks for all you do around here
SKI: You're welcome...and thank you
[smiles] MARK: Sure, no problem!
[ Ski looks at Amber & shows coupon. ]
AMBER: Wow, I can't believe that!
[walks up] HITHE: What?
AMBER: Ski and those coupon cards
HITHE: Coupon cards?
AMBER: Yeah they're $3…He's getting them from Mark
HITHE: I didn't even know we had those
AMBER: That's weird
HITHE: Yeah, like I said…something's up around here
[ Hithe walks over to the checkout lanes. ]
HITHE: Question…has anyone received one of those
three dollar scan coupons?
MONICA: From this place?
DINA: You're joking, right?
HITHE: Hmm, OK… [walks off shaking head]
[ Hithe's walking, passes by Amber. ]
AMBER: Where are you going?
HITHE: To continue my investigation…
AMBER: OK? This isn't CSI
[ Follows him to floral…]
HITHE: Hey Kristyn
KRISTYN: You're back…
HITHE: I just wanna ask if you've heard of the coupon
cards that Mark has
KRISTYN: Nope why
HITHE: Well, only one person seems to be getting them…
KRISTYN: Oh
HITHE: Yeah, so anyways….are you OK?
[ She keeps looking down & working. ]
HITHE: I can tell that's something's going on…
And were friends, right?
KRISTYN: Yeah, I guess so…but
HITHE: But what?
KRISTYN: Nothing! Look, I know what you're doing…
HITHE: Listen Kristyn, I…
[walks up] AMBER: Yeah, some of us haven't had a break in a while…
[ Hithe walks off, Kristyn goes back to work. ]
[ Ski approaches & sees Amber walking towards the door. ]
SKI: Where are you going?
AMBER: Away from here…. [goes outside]
[ Amber is smoking outside & Ski walks up to her. ]
SKI: So, what's going on?
AMBER: I don't know…
SKI: Come on, something is…
So, you've known Hithe for a little while?
AMBER: Yeah, just since I came here…
SKI: We've grown into quite the little threesome
AMBER: Uh, that's one way to put it…
SKI: Really, it's cool though…
AMBER: Yeah, we have fun…or we use to
SKI: Well, now it's time to take things to the next level
AMBER: What do you mean?
SKI: We needs dates…It's about time we had
some new action in our lives
AMBER: Oh, I agree…but how?
SKI: I don't know…you know me though.
I'll come up with something…
AMBER: Right…Oh and you're the only one
getting those coupons cards
SKI: What, how do you know?
AMBER: Hithe checked it out… [Puts it out & they walk back inside]
[ Amber & Ski return to self-checkout & see Kristyn and Hithe. ]
HITHE: So, are we gonna talk?
KRISTYN: Talk about what?
HITHE: Kristyn, you said you knew…
KRISTYN: The only thing I know is that I have a husband
& two kids waiting for me…I have to leave
HITHE: Alright. Have a good night!
[ Hithe shakes head, walks off. ]
AMBER: What's he doing?
[staring off..] SKI: Huh?
AMBER: Hithe, why is he always with her?
[shakes head] SKI: I don't know
AMBER: I mean, he acts like he likes her or something…
SKI: Yeah, I know…Oh well, what can you do?
[walks up] HITHE: Hey guys
AMBER: Yeah, so what was that about?
HITHE: With Kristyn? Nothing…
SKI: Right…you're scandalous!
[laughs] HITHE: Me? I haven't done anything…
SKI: Yeah, OK
HITHE: Why don't you go take your lunch?
[ Ski walks off, waving his finger at him. ]
AMBER: So…
[ Ski approaches Monica's lane. ]
MONICA: Chicken, macaroni, & mashed potatoes…
SKI: Yup! Some of our deli's finest…
MONICA: You would come up with this
when I'm starving over here…
SKI: Yeah, me too! [Mmm…]
Here you go… [hands her the coupon card]
MONICA: Oh, OK…now I see whose getting these…
DINA: Let me see…
SKI: I've been getting those for weeks now…
I must be special! [smiles]
DINA: Yeah, or it's something else…
MONICA: Well, you enjoy your lunch!
SKI: Oh, I intend to…bye. [walks off]
DINA: I don't know about that Mark guy
MONICA: Yeah, I know
DINA: He gives me a weird feeling…
[ Ski passes Mark who smiles & waves. ]
HITHE: So…
AMBER: You know that's wrong of you…
HITHE: What?
AMBER: The whole Kristyn thing…
HITHE: Oh, I think something's going on with her
One minute she's fine…the next
AMBER: That's not what I mean!
HITHE: Oh, well maybe it's so wrong…
it's right, ever think of that? [laughs]
[ Amber rolls her eyes & walks away. ]
HITHE: What? I was just kidding…
