Girl 1: "So we're thinking we'll have the girls change in that room and the guys change in this room. Then when the guys are done, they'll knock, so that the girls can come through their dressing room to get to the stairs."
Girl 2: "Why do we have to go through the boys' dressing room?"
Girl 1: "Because that's the only way to get to the entrance for the upstairs."
Girl 2: "Why can't we enter from the other side of the stage?"
Girl 1: "We don't have stairs for that side. You'd have to jump up onto the stage, and you can't do that in heels."
Girl 2: "Then let's switch the guys' and girls' dressing rooms around. The guys can climb up onto the stage."
Girl 1: "But the room we gave the girls is bigger."
Guy: (Helpful idea) "There are two rooms back there we can use for changing."
(Everyone sort of stares)
Girl 1: "Uh, yeah, thank you."
Guy: "I wasn't paying attention, was I?"

"It's good that he's teaching his child to skip, because nobody ever taught me to skip. I went to kindergarten and I could almost read, but I couldn't skip! They told me to skip and I was like, 'Huh? What's THAT?' So I just made up my own thing."
