t h e o I've got a favor to ask.

[elyse condon]

ELLIE. …if it involves tequila or work, hard pass right now. Anything else, all yours!

[theo lovett]

t h e o Oh damn, it does involve work. Don't worry!

[elyse condon]

ELLIE. Did you hook up with one of the ER nurses again and need me to fix it?! But in all reality, what’s up? I’ve just had a few bad shifts lately. And we all went out for Mexican after. So hit me!

[theo lovett]

t h e o Haha no, I've learned my lesson. Shit I'm sorry, why didn't you tell me? I bumped into a friend from Alaska at the hospital, she's working in neonatal. I was hoping you'd show her around but don't worry, I've got it!

[elyse condon]

ELLIE. Aw another Alaska friend! Which one is it?? Someone you’ve talked about? I am fine to show her around! Might be better from my perspective being there more. She’s working with babies, she’s got to be cute.

[theo lovett]

t h e o Before long my whole high school will be here. Nah I don't think so, her name's Stella, she was actually my high school girlfriend hahaha. She's so cute, you'll love her. Makes me look like a real city slicker. Tell me about work though, what's up?

[elyse condon]

ELLIE. I knew she was cute. I just felt it with how you said friend. Now it makes sense- your ex girlfriend!! Seriously, I’ll show her around. It’ll be nice. And I’ll be nice I promise. Tell me about you guys. It’s just weird being this new role where I float everywhere. Last week I went from ED to a child dying on me in the pediatric icu.

[theo lovett]

t h e o What can I say, Alaskan girls are cute. Haha honestly, I say ex but we were kids, it was a lifetime ago. Haven't seen her since I was sixteen. Oh Ellie. Just quit, I'll cover rent.

[elyse condon]

ELLIE. Of course you had a cute little high school girlfriend. Is she blonde? I’m guessing she is, it’s your type! No offense, of course. Omg I’m not quitting and having you cover rent. I’ll just drink hedvily and make you drink with me.

[theo lovett]

t h e o Are you trying to convince me you didn't have a high school boyfriend? I don't have a type! Seriously, I can do it. For a few months anyway.

[elyse condon]

ELLIE. I didn’t have a serious one!! I hopped around in relationships. Does that not surprise you?! Yes you do. And it’s ok, it’s cute! I’ll be fine. Just don’t let me turn into the elyse I was during Covid ok?

[theo lovett]

t h e o Now that I believe. You really think my type is blonde? Oh no way, I'll get you fired before I let that happen.

[elyse condon]

ELLIE. I do! You’ve dated quite a few blondes, babe! Okay we’re making a pact. But now we drink okay?!

[theo lovett]

t h e o I've dated plenty of brunettes, that's my LA vibe. Yeah I'm up for it!
