(Home. Shirliey Bassey’s rendition of ‘As Long as He Needs Me’ plays on iTunes. Andy sings along)
Ron: You know that song?
Andy: Yeah. It is from Oliver!
Ron: No it is not.
Andy: Yes honey.
Ron: Shirley sang this song first.
Andy: No she didn’t. Oliver! is about an orphan named Oliver. I know. We did the show in middle school.
Ron: She played the sister.
Andy: Oliver didn’t have a sister. That’s the point. He was an orphan.
Ron: Then it was that other show. She played one of the adults.
Andy: Annie?
Ron: Yeah.
Andy: No honey. Oliver and Annie were not brother and sister.
Ron: And they were separated at birth because they didn’t want them growing up together.
(pause)
Andy: Goddammit that’s Return of the Jedi!
