LOSTFAIRYTALES, AMBER, CASSIE, AND JEFF all sit in a circle. They just look around at each other before the silence is broken. Lost begins to laugh.

AMBER (perplexed)
What is it, Lost girl? I didn't hear anyone tell a joke.

LOST (still laughing)
I didn't say I did, now did I? I'm laughing at how Jeff is looking at us girls. He's the only guy, ya know.

Everyone looks at him and shrugs his shoulders.

JEFF (nervous)
Yeah, I know I'm the only guy here. Can't you guys come up with more males than only me? I feel kind of....in...

CASSIE (smiling)
Inferior problems again, Jeff? That's ashame. I know many males that would love to have several women by themselves. Most don't want another male around....

AMBER
HELLO!!! Cassie, stop hitting on my guy. We should get another guy in the group here. Jeff shouldn't be by himself.

Lost lets out a yawn as if she is getting bored quickly.

LOST
When are we going to start this circle thing? I'm missing out on going online and talking to my buddies. This is just so boring...

CASSIE
You mean this CIRCLE is boring? Now I don't think you should be in it then. This circle is not for anyone who thinks calling up the four winds is BORING!!!

Amber gently lays her hand on Cassie's shoulder to calm her down.

AMBER
Now, Cassie, she didn't say that she thought this circle is boring. She is talking about this small talk that's going on.

CASSIE
It sounded different to me. It sounded like she wants to be out of this group.

LOST (laughs)
If I did, I'm not aware of it, sweet little Cassie.
