The Girl Who Couldn’t Lie Straight

1: the liar (Joanna)
2: Rachael
3: Soo Ji

Scene 1

1: You know what? Rachel Hunter emailed me yesterday.
2: Rachel Hunter?
3: really?
1; yeah. She wanted to come and stay with me.
2: You’re kidding.
1: She said she didn’t like her mother’s house and she would visit her but stay with me when she came next to New Zealand.
3: I find that hard to believe.
2; Like when did you meet her.
1: We met on the chat rooms.
3: She wouldn’t use chat rooms. She’s got friends.
1: Well she said she was very lonely and she wanted to talk so we chatted about stuff.
2: You shouldn’t use the chat rooms. You don’t know who you’re talking to. I bet it wasn’t Rachel Hunter. It was just someone pretending to be her. She’s having you on.
1: No it was her. She told me all this personal stuff….about her mother and her boyfriend. No one else could have known that stuff.
3: I’m not listening to this rubbish. You’re deceived or else you’re lying.
1: Wow. You don’t believe me. I knew no one would believe me. This is so typical. When anything good happens to me no one believes me. I’ll never share anything with anyone ever again. I hate you guys….(rushes off)
2; man what did me do?
3; How does she expect us to believe that stuff. She’s verging on becoming a total pillock.
2: Hey that’s a bit rough.
3; Well a cretin then O.K. She’s unusual, and a liar.
2: Well maybe she was just fooled. That doesn’t make her a liar.
3: So she must be a cretin then, or a moron.
2: She’s just unfortunate, easily deceived. Don’t call her those names.
3: I’ve got to call her something. She’s different, she needs a name, a label. She’s dangerous, a walking time bomb. She could get recruited by Osama Bin Laden. He could ring her and tell her he’s the power guy reading her meter and get her to make bombs and stuff.
2: Dream on. Who’s got the big imagination now?
3: Well something could happen top her if she believes anything anyone tells her.
2: She is a bit of a worry.
3; Yeah let’s agree on that. She’s a bit of a worry. A bit of a worry. That’s better than nothing. Why are you so nice. You embarrass me with my need to name and label people and create new terms of abuse for them.
2: Yeah well you’re just very creative with language.
3: there you go being nice again. Just call me a judgmental swine, a hypocritical beast, a fascist bully, a nazi interrogator…
2: Yeah o.k. You’re a fascist bully.
3: You say it so nicely though. It’s when you tell your dog off. You say bad dog and the dog licks you. It thinks you’re praising it for eating the cat or something. The tone of voice is important. Let me train you. You fascist bully, and curl your lips.
2; laughs. Come on, let’s go home.

Scene 2

1: Hey guess what. It wasn’t Rachel Hunter in the chat room. It was someone masquerading as her.
3; Wow. Fancy that.
2: We did warn you..
1: You won’t believe who it was.
3: Osama Bin Laden?
1: How did you know? He was ever so nice. He wanted to come and read my power meter.
3: I don’t believe this.
1: You never believe me.
2: But you don’t understand. That’s what we talked about yesterday, that he might pretend to read your meter and then trick you into making bombs or something.
1; He didn’t mention bombs. He said he wanted to help me understand God and the World crisis.
3: Sure it wasn’t Jehovah’s witnesses?
1: No he called himself a Muslim. And he wanted peace. He was very sweet.
3; Oh my Gosh and you believed him. Listen that wasn’t Osama Bin Laden. He doesn’t talk to school girls. He’s in a cave directing attacks against America. Anyone could fool you. You’re a worry.
1: I’m not a worry am I 2?
2: …Ah..ah.yes I think you are a bit gullible. It’s not likely is it that Osama Bin Laden would come and read your power. I mean does he work for the power board or something?
3; yeah is he like an unemployed terrorist? Got a new job? Become a refugee cos it’s too dangerous for him?
1: I’m going. You guys never believe me. I’m never going to share anything with you again.
3: Gosh am I turning into a witch? I foretold that would happen.
2: This is very weird. I don’t like it. We should tell a teacher. 1 is in danger.
3: No! Don’t tell a teacher. We’ll sort it out.
2: How? Do you want to pray?
3: No! I mean we’ve got to be practical. I’ll think of something. I’ll call you.
2: So what’s going to happen next?
3; Don’t tempt me. I don’t know. Maybe she’ll be invited to go to the Antarctic by Sherpa Tensing. I’ll ring you later…bye…

Scene 3

1 & 2 meet
1: Where’s 3? She’s late.
2: I don’t know. She was going to ring me but she didn’t and when I rang she was engaged.
1: She’s always on the internet.
2: Really? I didn’t know she was connected.
1: She’s an addict. I meet her in the chat rooms all the time. She calls herself sea slug.
2: Lovely. So cuddly.
1: She’s always pretending things and playing games.
2: Like what?
1: Like she’s someone else and giving weird instructions to people.
2: So what happened to you last night. Anything weird?
1: Not really. It wasn’t really Osama Bin Laden calling me. I don’t know why I believed it. But I got a call from the South Pole. There’s someone living there called Slurper tense something.
2: Sherpa Tensing?
1: yeah. He wanted me to come and visit.
2: 1. There’s something you should know. I think I know what’s been going on.
2: You believe me now? I know it was from the Antarctic because there was a little snowman at the bottom of the page.
1: 1, 3 has been tricking you. She pretends to be all these people calling you but it’s just her. Then she pretends to not know about it and predict what’ll happen next. I’m sorry. She’s been lying to you.
1: Wow. You called her a liar. I’ve never heard you judge someone before. You’re always so nice.
2: Well I don’t think it’s a judgement exactly, it’s more like a fact. And if I were you I wouldn’t worry about whether I’m nice or not but what about your friend who’s been deceiving you?
1: yeah I guess that’s bad. But it was kind of fun.
2; You’re crazy! Like do you enjoy being deceived and mucked around. I wouldn’t like anyone doing that to me one bit.
1: Well I’ll talk to her about it.
2: talk? Well it’s up to you. I personally like to confront her but I guess it’s not my business anymore. I’ve warned you.
1: yeah so you’ve got nothing more to do with it. She’s meeting me here in a few minutes.
2: I’m going.
1: Yeah so you don’t want to be friends with me any more? What about 3?
2: I never said that! Wow you’re so manipulative.
1; And you’ve become very judgmental. I’m surprised at you.
2: I’m leaving before I blow my stack.
1: Wow, an anger management problem.
2: Aarrrh! ( 2 leaves, 3 rushes in)
3; I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I was really naughty. Did 2 tell you?
1: Yeah she guessed. You were really naughty.
3; yeah I know. But wasn’t it fun?
1: I did enjoy being famous for a while. But you wouldn’t believe how exercised 2 got. You called you a liar and a deceiver and called me crazy and manipulative.
3: Wow. What a jerk. I would never have thought it of her.
1: Yeah she’s so judgmental.
3: My thoughts exactly. And she thinks she’s a Christian!
1: What a hypocrite.
3; She’s certainly not my friend anymore.
1: nor mine.
(They wander off while saying these last four lines)
