SCENE 1 | After pulling a late night, Bob sleeps on the couch until his first piano lesson of the day. His sleep is disturbed when Biff rises to the window on a scaffold (with Sully down below pulling the rope). The two have been hired by the landlord to do some repairs to the building, starting with replacing the cement surrounding the bricks. He promises applying the cement will be quiet, but scraping it off is quite loud. |

SCENE 2 | Bob writhes under the sheets as Biff scrapes more and more cement. The noise stops briefly before Biff starts yelling down to Sully about the consistency of the cement. Biff asserts to Bob he's not yelling, just merely having a discussion; besides, how else would he communicate with Sully when he's so far below? Bob convinces him to go down to ground level to talk to Sully so he can get some extra sleep... just in time for his alarm to go off. |
