II.Summer Crack: It Continues With Uma

[peg22]

So, it would seem that everyone but RSL understands the problems he started with the little announcement of the impending . . .thing.
Stephen and David are winging their way to the colonies to try to avert a debacle that makes last summer in Brighton seem like a walk on the beach . . . 

Paulie is still oblivious of all that is heading his way. Probably for the best right now. He hates soapy scenes.

II. Summer Crack: It Continues With Uma

 

 

Hello?

 

Are you on crack?

 

Uh . . . who is this?

 

You’re actually going through with this, Bobby?

 

Uma?

 

Yes, you dumb fucker – like I don’t have enough to deal with, you have to pull this stupid-

 

It’s not stupid.

 

It’s probably one of the most stupid things I’ve ever heard – and I was married to Ethan, Bobby – I’ve seen stupid things.

 

We’ve been engaged for years – you knew we’d finally get married.

 

That’s the point – you’ve been engaged for YEARS . . . what about Hugh?

 

What about Hugh?

 

Oh, don’t act like you have no idea what I’m talking about.

 

Uma, I have no idea what you’re talking about.

 

Have you told Hugh?

 

I’m sure he’s heard.

 

You’re kidding, right? You up and decide to marry the beard and you don’t tell Hugh?

 

The beard – I don’t like the way you’re-

 

Yeah, well I don’t like the way you’re treating Hugh. Did you guys fight or something? I mean I know those last episodes you shot must have been excruciating – did something happen? I couldn’t tell by watching . . .

 

No, nothing happened. Hugh and I have just . . . well . . .

 

You’ve had a fight! I should have known – the way you looked at him in that last scene.

 

Uh, Uma, that’s not real, you know – it’s a TV show. You know, acting?

 

The way you looked at him was not acting. What happened? You have to tell me. Did Paul and David have something to do with this?

 

How do  you know about Paul . . .

 

Please, Bobby – I know everything. Remember? Last summer. Emma. The hot tub.

 

Oh.

 

Oh? Oh? You ruin the best relationship you’ve ever been able to hang onto, not to mention the best acting gig you’ll ever get, and all you can say is oh. You know Stephen Fry is going to kill you.

 

He is not. I barely know him.

 

You are the worst liar. Hard to believe you’ve been able to keep all this secret this long. Of course you know Stephen Fry. God knows I’m dying for video, but really. He is going to kill you. As in dead. Or at least maimed. Or at the very least, your name and naked body all over page 6 – page 6, Bobby. And probably drunk and ass up with someone like, oh I don’t know – Ethan. They love to trot that old shit out. And what’s that going to do to my kids, Bobby? Did you think of all this?

 

Well, actually, no, Uma. I was selfishly thinking of myself when I decided to get married.

 

Call Hugh.

 

He’s . . .

 

He’s in New York.

 

How do you know?

 

I love him. We had lunch Monday. Bastard wouldn’t tell me anything about next season, though.

 

You had lunch . . .

 

Or if you can’t call him – call Stephen. Apologize. Beg for mercy. And it probably wouldn’t hurt to give David Soul a ring.

 

Why in hell would I call David Soul?

 

For fuck’s sake, Bobby – do I have to spell it all out to you?

 

Apparently you do.

 

You think David’s going to take this well? With Paul in New York?

Paul’s in New York?

 

God, Bobby, you are an actor, right? You do read the trades once in a while, right?

 

What’s he doing in New York?

 

How should I know – but if David finds out that Hugh’s here and Paul’s here  . . .

 

Shit – I see your point.

 

Call Hugh, Bobby.

 

Uh, well, I think I should . . .

 

Call Hugh. Or I’ll call Ethan.

 

No, don’t call Ethan.

 

Then call Hugh.

 

Okay, I’ll call Hugh.

 

And then call me back.

 

Anything else?

 

Yes, get me a role as a patient on your show for fuck’s sake – I’m saving House and Wilson – it’s the least you can do. Maybe I can finally be the girl who has lupus.

 

Goodbye, Uma.
