Bill and Bob approach from opposite sides of the stage, recognise and greet each other.
Both look nervous.

\dialog{Bill}
Oh hi Bob. Er, listen, I've got to talk to someone.
It's about Valentine's Day. 
It's about a Valentine's Day gift actually.
It's really embarrassing. 
I don't even want to talk about it.

\dialog{Bob}
It's hard being a guy on Valentine's Day. 
So many things can go wrong. 
There's just no way a guy can get it right.
I didn't have a great time on Valentine's Day either, 
despite my best efforts.
I'm still embarrassed about it myself.

\dialog{Bill}
You do your best to get everything right, 
you ask all your friends for advice,
and still every year it's a disaster.
I may as well give up.
It's hopeless.

\dialog{Bob}
\paren{concerned}
So what happened?
It's about a gift right?
It's not about...

\dialog{Bill}
Yes, I'm afraid so. 
It was underwear again.
It's a disaster.
It happens every year.
I can't believe it.
You'd think that one year, 
just once, 
it would all be OK and we could have a nice day together.
But it never works out that way.

\dialog{Bob}
I know, it happens every time.
You'd think after all these years that someone would finally get it.
OK let's have a look.

\stage
Bob gets down on his knees while Bill stage removes his pants.

\dialog{Bill}
There. I'm so embarrassed.

\dialog{Bob}
Wow. Teddy Bears. 

\stage
Bob gets up

\dialog{Bill}
Where to women find this stuff. Who sells it?

\dialog{Bob}
Beats me. I have no idea where they get it.
What sort of minds do people have that they even sell this sort of stuff?

\dialog{Bill}
Why do women think we like getting this stuff?
After she gave it to me, she made me parade around the living room in it.
I just felt like a piece of meat.
It was so humiliating.
She was having so much fun, telling me how cute I was.

\dialog{Bob}
I had my own Valentine's Day disaster too.

\dialog{Bill}
\paren{concerned}
So what happened?
It's about a gift right?
It's not about...

\dialog{Bob}
Yes, I'm afraid so.
It's underwear again.

\dialog{Bill}
OK let's have a look

\stage

\dialog{Bob}
There, I'm so embarrassed.

\dialog{Bill}
Wow. Hearts.
