*Gonff is coming back from a thieving trip, having been gone a few days. He’s wandering through the forest, thinking up ways to greet his dear Columbine when he returns. *
Gonff: “My Columbine, I missed you// from my head down to my tail”—no, that’s not good. I can’t even rhyme when I think about her. Hey, that’s it! “Dear Columbine, I’ve lost my rhyme// you’ve stolen it from me// your flashing eye, your stunning face// have swept my breath away.” Hey!
*Columbine happens to choose this particular moment in time to become present. *
Columbine: Gonff! You’re back! *She hugs Gonff excitedly. *
Gonff: Columbine! Um… hi. *He hugs her back. *
Columbine: *somewhat deflated* Hi. So… do you want to come back to Brockhall?
Gonff: Yeah, sure.
*Columbine skips off toward Brockhall; Gonff hangs back a moment, wondering how he could have been so stupid as to fudge their greeting. *
*Captain Jack Sparrow enters, bedecked in a crown and various other gold ornaments from Barbosa’s treasure. He is swaggering drunkenly, as usual. *
Jack: If you were waiting for the opportune moment, that was it.
Gonff: Yeah, I kinda noticed that. And I had a nice poem all ready for her, too!
Jack: Well actually, as my good friend and almost fiancé Elizabeth Swan said when she was being Elizabeth Bennett in a different film, poetry is not the way to express one’s affections, dancing is. You might try it sometime.
Gonff: Hey, that’s not a bad idea! And we could have dinner, too! What should we eat?
Jack: Really bad eggs.
Gonff: I can do that! I’m actually really good at making really bad eggs!
Jack: And wear a hat. A really big one.
Gonff: Got it.
Jack: So now you’ve got all your little plans made, you might want to actually ask the girl to go out with you.
Gonff: Ooo… that might be a good idea. Columbine! Columbine I need to ask you something!
Jack: My work here is done. *heroic pose* But why leave just before the funny part?
*Jack grabs an armchair and some popcorn and settles in. *
Will Columbine go out with Gonff? Will she like his really bad eggs? And where did Jack get his chair and popcorn? I ask you!
