Leggings 18 - I've tried to write this script style.
Paul opens the door out onto the street and goes to the gate.
Lady on street: "Hello, it's Paul isn't it?"
Paul: "Yeah, neighbour?"
Lady on street: Moved in about a week or so ago. Not sure of anyone's name yet. I'm Marrian Peake.
Paul: Err, that's my girlfriends married name. (shock)
Lady on street: Oh, I never knew that.
Paul: I'll have to tell her... he backs off inside the house.
Leggings: What's up? You're back soon!
Paul: That new neighbour has the same name as you did. Marrian Peake!
Leggings: Never! I'll have to watch the post then.
Paul: I've got to go, thanks for the lovely afternoon. (kisses her goodbye)
Later on Marrian (Leggings) gets dressed to meet Phylis to attend the Ladies Triangle. In car:
Phyliss: Thought I'd catch you not ready!
Leggings Not me! Guess what? The neighbour's got my old name Marrian Peake - wonder if she has the old brother in law.
Phyliss I don't like the sound of that, so close. What about your post? Do you still get any in your old name?
Leggings Not that much anymore! More in the name I took back after the funeral. I felt so sad about it all.
They get out of the car and go inside the hall. It's crowded and the meeting is about to start.
Sharon: Thought you'd never get here! (she takes Leggings by the arm and pulls her away from Phyliss)
Leggings: Hi, Sharon hows everything going?
Sharon: Loads to tell you. When can you get away from Phyliss (she gives Phyliss a dirty look)
Leggings: It's nothing to do with Phyliss, I had work! I don't often see her either. I do have a life too.
Sharon: I'd like to come round tomorrow if I can.
Leggings: I'll meet you after my shift if you like. In the city. Call me after 4pm.
The meeting is called to order. The girls move into a rough triangle.
The leader: Is there anyone here with a request?
Sharon: Aye! I have one.
The Leader: what is your request?
Sharon: The older woman we were trying to help accept her age restrictions, has hidden away in the hospital.
We can't get anyone in. There was complaints about the water immediately. The water board was called in to remedy it. How are we to proceed?
The Leader: I will call a full meeting of the Tripod. We will come back to you on that one. Does anyone work at the hospital?
Phyliss: That's totally unfair girls, she could lose her job. They aren't allowed to talk about the patients.
The Leader: We demand our members totally remember their vows of loyality to our unit. ( Chants & the others join in)
We are one. One body! Defendable.
We watch over each other, Trust
each other, care for each other.
Respond to the other. Friends
of the Triangle are strong in faith.
We cannot be beaten: we cannot
be disgraced. We are one!
We are one! One act of loyality
leads to another. We are one!
We hold tight to our vow incorruple.
We protect our country, indivisable
we stand. Mothers and daughters!
One body, one mind.
We are one!
The Leader: Anyone who works at the hospital should come forward to me privately this week. Your loyality vow is more important than the conditions of employment. We strive to make our world a better place for
our members.
Phyliss: I seem to remember this was all over a man. Isn't the member who called this one up ready to stop?
After all they're younger - they perhaps should choose another man. Men aren't usually seduced by force.
Girl (19): Yes, well it was me! Men can be taken by force. Sure they can. Its a big myth that they like older women. He only did it to interest me. Now I've found out more. I'm more interested in doing her for every penny she should have....
The triangle: We support you little sister of the triangle. We support each other in trouble.
2nd Lady: I'm working with the church groups to agitate them into helping out. If it's put as a game they will help. When we have the monies from that Poetry competition she won, shall we put it into the community?
The Leader: That too I shall bring to the Tripod meeting.
2nd Lady: She's round the bend anyhow now. We can say that and get the lot. We'll say she needs looking after.
Did you get him to take you?
Girl (19) Yeah. For a night. Just to upset her. He wants a woman who will get down on her knees BDSM style to marry him. I did it.
Phyliss: So you're married?
Girl (19) Well if you take it seriously I am. He just doesn't seem to want to know me now.
Phyliss: A one night stand then.
Girl (19) That's why I'm after the cash. She's got legacies and I know where they are and she doesn't. We've had her post for years. She's too stupid, she didn't even know her family and that ex of her's was doing it to her. The Parish Council are in too. One of them knows her from before when she lived in Leicestershire, and she was left something in the village. The others don't know. He doesn't want her to know. Cos they've built on it now. So she can't....
Leggings: That's not legal.
Phyliss: You can say that again. What happened to fair play? You got the man? Why this?
Girl (19) S'not enough! Want her dead.
Lady 3 I don't think I'm coming anymore. I don't like this. (she leaves)
The Leader: Well she was too old for our group anyways. We've been told to ban the over 40's now. We want our group to reflect the changing society in which we live.
Leggings: I should go too.
The Leader: Not you, you're no whe ay near 40 yet.
Phyliss: Won't be long before I am.
The Leader: Phyliss you need our help yet. And we need yours. You ought to stay until you're of leaving age.
Is there anyone else here who is over 40?
Lady 4 I'm 41 leader, shall I go.
The Leader: I'll take that to the Tripod if you want to stay. You're our best at certain things. Let's now walk the triangle. Is there anymore we can do for anyone else here? You only have to ask!
