Matt Albie was sitting at his desk looking at his computer screen trying to think of an idea for a sketch for this weeks show,when Danny Tripp Matts bestfriend and business partner came in.
"Matt?"Danny asked as he made his way to the couch and sat down.
"Yeah?"Matt asked as he looked up from his computer screen and over to Danny wondering what he wanted.
"Did you think of any sketches yet?"
"Does it look like I did?"Matt asked as he pointed to the blank page.
"No."Danny answered.
"Well then no I dont."
"Ok you dont have to bite the head off of me just you've got writer's block."
"No you're right I don't and I'm sorry that I snapped at you."
"That's ok."
"Thanks.And Danny?"
"Yeah?"
"What are you doing here?"
"What do you mean?"
"What I mean is why are you here and not with Jordan?"
"Oh well I felt guilty."
"Why?"
"Well because we never really hang out anymore."
"Oh."
"Why?"
"No nothing."
"Matt?"
"Hmmm?"
"Are you ok?"
"Yeah why wouldn't I be?Right Danny?"
"Yeah."
"Are you done?"
"Yeah why?"
"Because we got to do a show in 1 day 22 hours 34 minutes and 53 no 52 no 51 seconds."Matt said as he looked up at his clock on the wall.
"You shouldn't look at the wall you know."Danny said as he got off the couch and stopped at the door way.
"Why?"Matt asked still looking at Danny.
"What?"Danny asked as he turned around and looked at Matt.
"Why shouldn't I look at the clock?"
"Because it's going to drive you crazy."
"Too late for that."
"Well I'm going to go and see how Jordan is."
"Ok."
Danny walks out the door and goes to his office while Matt is still in his desk trying to think of a sketch idea when Suzanne enters this time looking upset.
"Suzanne are you ok?"Matt asked as he saw Suzanne standing by the door way.
"If I ask you something will you promiss not to fire me?"Suzanne asked as she looked even more worried at Matt.
"I'm not going to fire you what's wrong?"
Matt got up and went over by Suzanne,now worried.
"Are you high right now?"
"Oh well...what makes you think I'm high now?"
"You're not your usual self."
"And what is my usual self?"
"Flipping out about the writing."
"I still do that."
"Not like before plus you don't write like you use to."
"Well how is it not like I use to?"
"It's not that funny."
"Yeah well I think it's funny and so do the people watching it."
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to insult you I'm just worried about you that's all."
"I know and thanks for caring but I'm fine Suzanne so don't worry about it so much."
"You sure?"
"Yeah I'm sure and now I got to write the show for friday night."
"Ok as long as your sure that there's nothing to worry about."
"You mean other than the show?"
"Yeah."
"Yeah then no."
"No what?"
"No ma'am?"
"Matt."
"Don't worry Suzie there's nothing to worry about other then the fact that today's wednesday and I got nothing wrote for friday night's show."
"Ok I'm going to go back to my desk now so just sing out if you need anything ok?"
