Bumble Bee Page #5

Security guard – Excuse me Sir you can’t do that, it’s theft.

Stanley – Look I’m on my way to pay for my shopping.

Security guard – Follow me, I have to report you.

Stanley makes an extra effort not to lose his temper.

Stanley – Of course, that’s so understandable.

Security guard – Can you empty your pocket.

Stanley – Why, I mean of course, God you’re so good at your job.

Security guard – Since you are guilty of theft, the police will be here, they are going to have to take you to the station for questioning.

Stanley – That’s so amazing, I’ve always admired the work the police do, they are community hero's, really.

Police officer – What seems to be the problem.

Security guard – I caught him shop lifting.

Stanley – let me explain, I’d like to apologize, and I’d like to donate money to your charity, how about it.

Security guard – We’re not a charity, we’re a supermarket.

Stanley – Ok, I’d like to explain, and I will make any payment you demand, right away.

Police officer – What are you accused of stealing.

Stanley – Just a pack of crisps, it was an innocent mistake, I promise to never repeat it.

Police officer – I don’t normally relax the law, but in this instance, I’ll make an exception, you’re free to go, make your way to the till and make your payment.

Stanley – Of course sir, you are so honourable.

Stanley makes his way to the till he manages to keep himself calm, and he succeeds, once again he notices his skin colour return to normal. From then on, he decides to change his life around. He calls Elly and Suzan first.

Stanley – Elly it’s me, look I’m so sorry I didn’t treat you as I should have, I should have been honest with you.

Elly – Too late you low life cheating bastard.

Stanley – You’re right I did cheat, but it will never happen again, I just wanted to say sorry.

Elly – Apology accepted, actually I was seeing someone myself when we were seeing each other.

Stanley – Were you, well that makes me feel a lot better.

Elly – Are you back with Lola.

Stanley – Yes I am.

Elly – You son of a b*tch.

Elly hangs up the phone, Stanley checks to see that his hand hasn’t turned blue, he’s pleased. He then calls Suzan, a male voice picks up the phone.

Stanley – Hello may I speak to Suzan.

Alan – You may, who are you.

Stanley – I’m calling from the bank.

Alan – Ok hold on a moment, Suzan it’s for you.

Suzan – Who is it.

Stanley – It’s me Stanley.

Suzan – look I can’t talk; my husband is just next door.

Stanley – Your husband, you didn’t tell me you were married.

Suzan – And you didn’t tell me you were in a relationship, that makes the two of us.

Suzan hangs up the phone on Stanley.
