IN AMELIA’S HOUSE
(Opening with Amelia walking about in the Living.)
(She then goes to the balcony and call out to Victoria)
Amelia (angrily) - “VICTORIA! What on Earth are you doing their, kid? Come on
up!”
(Victoria enters, with colourful clothes.)
Amelia (disgusted) - “What this you’re wearing child? Your Grandpa’s dead.
Wear some mourning clothes!”
(Victoria exits and starts to walk about again)
Amelia (mumbling) – “Where is this idiotic man? How much time will it take to
send a freaking telegram?”
(Knocking on the door is heard)
Amelia (to herself) –”Oh no! It better not be those two!”
(Opens door and Henry enters)
“Oh! It’s you! Thank the lord! I thought it was ol’Lizzie and Ben.”
Henry (to Amelia) – “I just sent them the telegram. How will they be here before
me?
Henry (smirking) – “Oi! You do look pretty good in mourning!”
(Amelia slaps Henry in the head)
Amelia (angrily) - “You.. We are in mourning. This is a funeral house. Mind it!”
Henry (removes coat and talks to himself) – “Whatever did I do in my previous
ACT TWO:
LIZZIE AND BEN’s HOUSE
(Opening with Lizzie and Ben leaving the house)
Lizzie (to Ben) - “I can’t believe ol’grandpa’s is dead! Should I be sad that he is
gone or should I be happy that we get some of his assets?”
Ben (to Lizzie) - “Ha, Don’t kid yourself! Amelia is gonna give a hard bargain!”
(Liz sees the car and tries to open the door and sit but falls down)
Liz (in pain) – “OWW!”
Ben (to Liz) - “What the... Lizzie! That’s Jimmy’s cardboard car! Not a real one!”
Liz (rubbing her butt, to Ben) – “What the freaking flapjacks is it doing in the
driveway?!”
(Ben shakes his head and throws up his hand in defeat, to himself) – “Whatever
did I do in my previous life..”
ACT THREE
Vicky (to her parents, curiously) – “How much longer? Won’t Grandpa’s corpse
stink?”
Amelia (to Vicky) – “Shut up.”
Henry (to Vicky) – “Talk your age, kid.”
Vicky – “I just learnt it the other day at school.”
Amelia (to Henry, handing over the slippers) – “Here, take grandpa’s precious
slippers, before Ben claims it.”
Henry (to Amelia) – “Okay! Whatever you say.”
Amelia (to Henry) – “Also, let’s take away his new bureau and put it in our room
before Lizzie takes it away.”
Henry (to Amelia) –“Yes, you are right. And we’ll put our chest of drawers in his
room.”
(Amelia leaves the room)
Vicky (to both) – “Are you trying to take granddad’s things before Aunt Lizzie
and Uncle Ben take it away?”
Henry (to Vicky) – “Heck no, child. Granddad wants your Momma to take it.”
Vicky (astonished, to Henry) – “Oh really?”
Henry (to Vicky) – “Heck yes, Vicky. He told us that this morning.”
Vicky – “He was drunk this morning.”
(Amelia comes back with a clock in her hand)
Amelia (to Henry) – “I thought I might get his clock as well. Lizzie doesn’t really
need the good things.”
(Henry nods. Amelia places the clock elsewhere. They both shift the bureau)
(The door bell rings)
Amelia (to Vicky) – “Don’t you dare open it. First go check who it is.”
(Vicky checks)
Vicky (to Amelia) – “Its Aunt Lizzie and Uncle Ben!”
Amelia (to Vicky) – “Don’t open until I tell you to.”
Amelia (to Henry) – “You, move it fast!”
(Henry and Amelia shift the chest of drawers)
(H and A dust themselves)
Amelia (to Vicky) – “Open the door, now.”
(Vicky opens the door)
(Lizzie and Ben enter)
Lizzie (fake crying, to Amelia) – “Oh, Amelia! He’s gone!”
Amelia (to Lizzie) – “Yes. He was just seventy two.”
(A and H cheek-hug L and B)
(A, H, L and B sit in the Living)
Liz (to Amelia) – “My! That’s a fine bureau, you got there! Where didya get it?”
Amelia (stuttering, to Liz) – “Uhh.. Umm.. Oh! Th-that? Henry got it in a-a..
auction! Yeah, auction!”
Ben (to Amelia) – “Oh! An auction, eh? Very well!”
Liz (to A and H) – “Have you both thought about the obituary column? What are
we gonna put on it?”
Henry (in general, joking) – “We have been thinking about it. How about – Our
Dear Father, Mr. Abel Merryweather, has taken his ticket aboard the
Heavenly Airlines! Please pray that the aircraft doesn’t encounter any
hijacks!”
(Ben and Henry burst out laughing)
Ben (to Henry, joking) – “Ha-ha! Wa-wai-wait! Are you even sure that it is
heaven or hell?
(They burst out laughing again)
Lizzie (angry) – “Chup! What is this? Our father is lying as cold as Edward
Cullen, up there! And you both are cracking jokes!”
Amelia (angry) – “Amen to that! Don’t you have any respect for our father?”
Amelia (to Liz, proudly) – “I think Carlisle Cullen is more like it! Edward is, you
know, too young!”
Liz (to Amy) – “Yes, you are right! But, Carlisle? No. How about Aro?”
Amy (to Liz) – “Or Caius?”
(Henry and Ben give each a ‘what the hell', look)
(Henry and Ben clear their throat)
Amy (to Lizzie) – “Uh.. yeah, so, what about his properties?”
Liz (to Amelia, in a hurry) – “He promised his Swiss Watch to Jimmy!”
Henry (to Liz) – “Really? I’ve never heard of that!”
Ben (to Hen) – “Yes. He was very fond of Jimmy. He promised him the Rolex
when he was living with us.”
Amy (to Liz) – “Well, whatever! All the furniture in his room, we’ll part it out. And
his insurance money is there! That’s ours!”
Liz (to Amy, sarcastic) – “He has paid it, right?”
Amy (to Liz) – “Of course, he did! I saw him go out to pay it this morning, with
my own eyes!”
Vicky (to Amy, sarcastic) – “Grandpa? This morning? Insurance? He paid?”
Henry (to Vicky) – “Duh!”
Vicky – “But he went to the Ring O’ Bells, this morning!”
Liz (to Vicky) – “Are you sure, child?”
Vicky (to Liz) – “Yes, Aunt Lizzie! He told me, before leaving!
Ben (in general) – “Well, my! The son of a drunken vampire!”
Liz (to Ben, offended) – “Hey! Vampires are awesome! No dissing them!”
(Amy, Hen and Vicky give each other a pathetic look)
Henry (to Liz and Ben) – “Will you both cut out the nonsense and concentrate on
what to do?”
Liz (to A and H) – “What is this Ring O’Bells, first of all?”
Amy (to Liz) – “That is a bar, down the block. Run by this old lady, Mrs.
Shorrocks.”
Ben (in general) – “Whatever! I bet he did in purpose!”
Henry (in general) – “Let’s not be hasty! Vicky, go up and get the insurance
paper from Grandpa’s room!”
Vicky (afraid) – “Grandpa’s room? N-n-no way! I’m not going up there!”
Amy (to Vicky) – “Vicky! Oh my cute child! Don’t you want a Belgian
chocolate?”
Vicky (pacified) – “Leonidas?”
Amy (to Vicky) – “Yes, Leonidas! Now go up!”
(Vicky runs off scene)
Liz (to Amy) – “So, Amelia, Harry Potter or Twilight?”
Amy (to Liz) – “Twilight, of course. Harry Potter is just so.. nada!”
Ben (in general) – “I prefer KUNG FU PANDA!”
(Henry and Ben start laughing)
Henry (in general) – “I prefer FINDING NEMO!”
Amy (to Liz) – “Oh, what pathetic creatures!”
(Vicky appears and runs around, yelling)
Vicky (yelling) – “AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!”
Amy (to Vicky) – “Stop! Stop! Stop, Vicky!”
(Vicky still runs around)
Henry (to Vicky) – “VICTORIA H. SLATER! STOP THIS FREAKING INSTANT!”
(Vicky stops just like that)
Amy (to Vicky) – “Why the flippin’ flapjacks were you shouting and running
around?”
Vicky (starts thinking) – “Waai-waiit! Why was I yelling?”
(A&H and L&B put their hands on their foreheads)
Vicky (blub shining) – “Yeah! Iremember! I saw Grandpa wake up!”
Ben (to Vicky) – “Ha-ha. Think better, kiddo!”
(Abel enters)
Abel (in delight) – “Oh my god! Lizzie and Ben! What a surprise!”
(Henry and Ben start shouting and run around)
Henry and Ben (yelling) – “AAARGGHHH!”
(Amy and Liz are dumbstruck)
(Abel scratches his head in confusion)
Abel (to Ben) – “Come on, Ben, my son! Gimme a good ol’handshake!”
(Ben hesitates)
(Henry hits Ben in the back)
(Ben shivers and slowly creeps out his hand towards Abel)
(Ben stops shaking once he feels Abel’s skin)
Ben (in relief) – “He aint a ghost! Thank the lord for that!”
Liz (to Amy) – “You didn’t call in a doctor to check?”
Amy (to Liz) – “He was out cold! He didn’t respond at all, even after we were
shouting his name!”
Abel (to Ben) – “Son, you’re in mourning! And hey! So are all of you! Who has
taken the ticket?”
(Henry snickers, remembering the joke from before. Amy hits him in the head)
Ben (to Abel) – “Uhh.. my.. brother, Father! My brother!”
Abel (to Ben) – “Oh, yeah. That brother in Kangaroo-land.. Yeah! What’s the
name?”
Henry (to Abel) – “Australia, father!”
Abel (to Henry) – “Not the place’s name! The lad’s name
Ben (to Abel) – “William!”
Amy (to Abel) – “Charles! Prince!”
Liz (to Abel) – “Harry!”
Vicky (to Abel) – “Kate!”
Harry (to Abel, shouts evilly) – “VOLDEMORT!”
Abel (in general, impatient) – “I repeat my question, What is Ben’s brother’s
name?”
Ben (to Abel) – “Williamson Prince Katen Harry VOLDEMORT!”
Abel (to Ben, astonished) – “Your parents named you – Ben. They named your
brother - Williamson Prince Katen Harry VOLDEMORT? Weird.”
Amy (to Abel) – “Have some tea, father!”
(Abel has tea with others)
Abel (to Amy) – “Amelia, I wanted to ask. Where are my slippers? They are
missing!”
(Harry slowly removes it and hands it over to Abel)
Abel (to Henry) – “Why have you been wearing it, my son? And why is my
bureau not in room?”
Amy (to Abel) – “Uhh.. Father.. Henry wanted to get one just like yours. So he
was trying it on, to see how it suits him
Liz (to Amy) – “You couldn’t even let the man be cremated before snatching his
stuff?”
Amy (to Liz, offended) – “My, Lizzie! Atleast we didn’t put our names on his
Rolex!”
Liz (to Amy) – “How dare you!”
Henry (to both the ladies) – “No quarrelling when I’m here!”
Amy and Liz (to Henry) – “Then get out!”
(Ben snickers)
(Vicky puts her hand on her forehead)
Abel (in general) – “Will anyone explain what’s going on?”
Liz (to Abel) – “Will do, father… -“
Amy (to Abel) –“She will not, father!”
Liz (to Abel) – “I will, father. You were drunk and slept very well. My pathetic
excuse of a sister, Amelia and her even more pathetic husband here thought
you were dead and telegrammed us to come by and started swindling your
things, already.”
Abel – “My! Guess, I will have to change my will now.”
Henry (to Abel) – “You had written a will?”
Abel (to Henry) – “Duh. I’m going to change it so that my things go to the person
I’m living with when I’m dead.”
Liz (immediately) – “On the other hand, father. You should come and live with
us. At least we won’t swindle your things this way!”
Amy (to Abel) – “Oh, father! We’re sorry. Don’t be hard on us. We have always
taken good care of you.”
(Amy pours more tea into everyone’s cup. Everyone is drinking)
Abel (to everyone) – “Actually.. I have some decisions made. You see, Mrs.
Shorocks, down the block? That nice woman? We have been getting along so
well. And I don’t want to be burden on my daughters! So, this Monday, I’m getting married to her!”
A&H, L&B and Vicky (in utter shock) – “YOU. ARE. WHAT!?”
Abel - “Why, yes! This Monday. Thank you both, for bringing my stuff
downstairs. Now it’s easier to take to my fiancée’s house.”
Abel (thankful) – “Please do come to my wedding, everyone! I’m leaving now.
Lizzie and Ben, please keep coming to visit me. G’bye for now, everyone!”
(Abel exits)
Henry (in a trance) – “Please tell me I’m dreaming. Please tell me I’m
dreaming.”
(Amy, Liz, Ben and Vicky whack him on the head)
Henry – “No, I’m not dreaming.”
