PEGGY 54
VIOLET 55
FEMALE ROLES:
CLOONEY (Age: 20s or 30s)
A very eager worker. Happy to help with whatever task is put in front of her.
LINE 1: Greetings Mrs. Laramie! It is good to see you again, been quite the month without you! Quite the month!
LINE 2: We’ll be just outside if you need anything!
LARAMIE (Age: 40s or 50s)
The boss. She’s been on vacation for a while and is finally coming back to work. (Be warned: the writer has allocated an alarming amount of alliteration here.)
LINE 1: You were left a perfectly functional work environment while I took some time off. I’m not exactly pleased with what I’m seeing right now.
LINE 2: I think I managed to solve a piece of this puzzle. After the workers wrathfully walked, because you requested a ridiculous refreshment reorder of Tart Tangerine Tonics...you Cloned Chloe Clooney.
LINE 3: You launched Loads of Loathsome Litter into the Disused Dimensional Door to solve the problem of having craploads of Cloned Chloe Clooneys which was to solve that Workers Wrathfully Walked from a ridiculous refreshment reorder of the Tart Tangerine Tonics. Do I have this right?
PEGGY (Age: Early 20s)
A nerd. Loves old technology. Has great aspirations for the future but can’t quite seem to get started. Kind of forgets about other people’s wants and needs if not paying attention.
LINE 1: At the time it was a big deal. But over time, technology got better and they found faster ways to travel to other planets, and these ships became obsolete. They’re like a footnote in history books now. Nobody cares. But they’re still there, patiently making their way to their destination.
LINE 2: No need. The Gate’s always open and people aren’t in here for very long. We have maybe an hour’s worth of air. There’s an EVA suit with a couple of oxygen tanks in that closet. That’ll give us a few more hours.
LINE 3: Twenty meters to the elevator, then down a few floors, through the lobby, and out.. Not enough time before other safety features are activated and we’re trapped here.
VIOLET (Age: Early 20s)
Highly intelligent and sarcastic. She loves to party and is willing to do just about anything for a good time.
LINE 1: So we’ll have plenty of time to make reservations for our corpses. Great. [beat] Any chance of a last meal? What kind of provisions do they have in here? Military rations? A power bar?
LINE 2: ... We’ve colonized over a dozen planets and moons and haven’t found anything more intelligent than algae, and you’ve found a civilization so advanced they have their own interstellar spacecraft?
MALE ROLES:
TIM (Age: 20s or 30s)
Left in charge of the business while the boss was on vacation, Tim has done everything he can to keep order in the place. Problems happened, but he’s quite proud of how he handled everything. (Be warned: the writer has allocated an alarming amount of alliteration here.)
LINE 1: I promise, all will be explained and make perfect sense. Quite inevitable really. Just a stroke of bad luck or two while you were away.
LINE 2: We used the Disused Dimensional Door! It’d been inactive for so long, I’d totally forgotten we even had it. Once it was reactivated the solution was simple. We tidily tossed in the trash!
LINE 3: *speaking over alarm* That’s the Many Monstrous Mutants have disabled the “Many Monstrous Mutants have arrived through the Disused Dimensional Door alarm” alarm.
