Written by Shaun Bolden

Scene 4: WEDNESDAY-Beanpie paints the name, “Cart Wheels” onto the cart, and also puts a canopy over it. At noon, Tony comes and Beanpie just nods as Tony turns around to go to lunch. At 2PM they are on there way downtown…….again.

Beanpie: What do you think of the canopy?

Tony: It should keep your stuff dry, so I guess it’s cool.

Beanpie: This time we should make it there.

*The engines start to sputter, and the cart just stops.

Tony: You have got to be kidding me. What is it now?

Beanpie: I don’t know, let me see?

*Beanpie opens the cart, looks inside, and sees that he just ran out of gas.

Beanpie: We’re out of gas.Tony: I tell you, just getting you downtown is a project.

*Beanpie calls Shaun…..again. Shaun hooks the cart up……again, and gives Beanpie an, “Are you serious?” look.

Scene 5: THURSDAY-Beanpie empties his cart and puts gas into the engines, he cleans up, hears a knock, opens the door and tells Tony that it’s lunch time and Tony goes back home. At 2PM they make their way downtown…..again.

Tony: Do you have gas?

Beanpie: Yes, I filled up this morning. I even put an extra gallon in there for an emergency.

Tony: Where’d you put it?

Beanpie: Right in here.

*Beanpie opens his cart and shows Tony the gas, but then closes his eyes and hangs his head.

Tony: I mean, it’s great and all that you have extra gas, but aren’t your goods supposed to be in there too.

Beanpie: Yeah, but I unloaded them to fill the cart up, and never loaded them back.

Tony: Wow, I do not think we will ever make it downtown.

*Beanpie and Tony turn around and head back home……again.

Scene 6: FRIDAY-Beanpie loads the cart, sits in front of the TV, answers the door at noon, watches more TV, then heads downtown at 2PM

Beanpie: Indeed.

Tony: We might make it there this time.
