Second Face

JOSIE: We really need to lose that guy Tizer from the team. He doesn’t know what he’s doing.

EMILY: Yeah, and he’s pretty weird. He makes me feel really odd. What sort of a name is Tizer?

MILLY: A made-up one.

GREG: Well weird isn’t an issue so long as he’s good at Chessball.

JOSIE: But he’s not, so that’s the end of it.

GREG: It’s like he doesn’t get it though. He must be the one person who can’t play. It’s designed to be completely intuitive.

EMILY: I know. He’s weird. I don’t get him.

MILLY: We can’t really throw him off the team though, can we?

JOSIE: We can make a new team from scratch. I heard they’re changing the way teams work anyway so you can get together with more groups, or something.

GREG: Yeah, a better social network, or whatever.

JOSIE: Whatever, so long as it means we can make a team without Tizer.

EMILY: And without Jamie, he’s weird too.

GREG: Nah, he’s only weird because Tizer’s always hanging around him like a bad smell. Someone should tell Jamie to ditch Tizer before people get the wrong idea.

EMILY: I think he’s tried, but how do you shake someone like that off?

GREG: Start a new profile?

JOSIE: That’s pretty extreme, though. Probably took him ages to build up all his Chessball points. You don’t want to give that up lightly!

MILLY: Do you think he’s good-looking?

EMILY: Jamie?

MILLY: No, Tizer.

EMILY: Milly, whatever you do, don’t let Tizer add you. You’ll never get rid of him.

MILLY: Umm…

JOSIE: You already have, haven’t you?

MILLY: I thought he was fit!

JOSIE: For God’s sake! Don’t you listen to any of the internet safety chats?

MILLY: You don’t either. And that’s just adults being paranoid.

GREG: You shouldn’t add people you don’t know, everyone says that.

EMILY: Yeah, but it’s a load of rubbish though, isn’t it? We don’t know you and we’re getting along just fine. We don’t even know what country you live in.

GREG: Yeah, fair point. Be careful though, Milly, because that guy seems a bit strange.

MILLY: Yeah, I suppose…

SHANNON: (Offstage) Greg!
