HELPPP PLEASE

Read the excerpts from scene one and scene two of Get the Goods:

Scene One

Jerry: Don't forget the traps. That's another potential problem. They have been using them more often. Gosh, they're so hard to avoid.

Mickey: (Frustrated) No, they're hard for you to avoid. You never seem to learn. The rest of us know better: leave the piece for the whole. I swear, if I have to pull you out of another trap, Jerry...

Jerry: (Hands raised, apologetic tone) You're right, boss. I'm sorry. I'll make sure I eat before we leave so I'm not tempted. I won't get caught up in any more traps, promise. Eyes on the prize, as you say.

Remy: Okay, we've covered the security issue and the traps. Any other issues to raise at this point?

There is a long, quiet pause.

Mickey: Good. Now, remember, we need to get the goods. If we get caught, it will be a catastrophe.

Jerry starts to laugh but stops abruptly when he notices Mickey glaring at him.

Mickey: That wasn't a joke this time. We need a win to survive. Our families are counting on us.

The others nod their head in agreement as they all move towards the exit.


Scene Two


A kitchen. The three thieves creep silently along the far wall. Mickey leads the way, looking around carefully. He stops and turns towards the others.


Mickey: (Whispering) Looks like the coast is clear. So far, so good. Get into position, lads. It's time to strike.


Jerry: (Nose in the air, sniffing) Mmm, what's that smell? Smells like Gouda! Or is it swiss? Gosh, that's my favorite. (Giddily) I just love those fun little holes!


(Jerry breaks rank and moves away from the others.)


Remy: (Whispered shouting) No, Jerry! Don't do it! It's a trap!


Something snaps loudly in the kitchen. Jerry lies caught under the trap's metal bar.
