Registrar's   Wife:   WHAT   ONE   TIME?


               Registrar:   N-nothing.   Nothing   at   all.

               Registrar   hastily   stamps   the   form.


               Registrar:   I   now   pronounce   you   husband   and   wife.   You   may   leave   now.


               Registrar's   Wife   (fiercely):   No   you   stay   right   there   and   start   speaking,   girl.

               Poppy   (nervously):   I...   I   think   you   two   should   talk   alone.


               Poppy   hurries   the   newlywed   couple   out.


               Registrar's   Wife:   Are   you   having   an   affair?

               The   registrar   remains   silent .


               Registrar's   Wife:   I   want   a   divorce.


               Poppy   (overhearing,   and   thinking):    I   knew   it   wasn't   gonna   end   well.

               END.
