TUESDAY
TUESDAY
(Saddened and angry)
I can't believe you want to get rid of me! You're the one who called me back and now you're just shoving me away again!? 
(beat)
(give a sigh; speak softer)
Do you know where I go when you forget me...? I go into your memory...it's dark, a-and it's lonely, and when you do think of me it's like...this burst of life will go through me only to leave in an instant. It's so cruel...
TUESDAY
(in a comeback)
Oh yeah, well you're just a dummy-head. And you know what else Ollie??? You were a lot cuter when you were five.
TUESDAY
(happy)
I'm Tuesday! Remember me??? Oh come on, I know you remember me. We used to do everything together! 
(trailing off into saddness)
And then you just forgot about me...
(snapping right back to being happy)
But I was so glad when you had me come back! Now we can have fun and hang out all the time like we used to!!!
TUESDAY
(hesitant and nervous)
O-Oliver...do you think you could...erm...
(long pause with a defeated sigh at the end)
Nevermind...
TUESDAY
(annoyed)
I just don't understand you teenagers. You mope and dope around all day when you could be out-
(energetic)
-having an adventure!!!
(sing-song kind of way)
Adventure...adventure...adventure!

OLIVER
(narration type-speech)
Tuesday was the best thing about my childhood, always being there for me no matter what. And even as time went on, Tuesday never grew up....
(pause)
...but I did. As I grew up, Tuesday went away just like every imaginary friend does when you get too old. Only, Tuesday is different. Cause one day when I was 14...she came back.
(annoyed)
And she won't leave.
OLIVER
(muttering)
You can't do that here, it's embarrassing.
(pause)
I know he can't see you, but it makes me seem crazy by telling you to stop it.
(pause)
Hey, don't get sassy with me.
OLIVER
(angry)
I'm not crazy....I'm just...
(pause and a defeated sigh; emotional)
I'm lonely...I'm really lonely.
OLIVER
(reassuring)
You know I enjoy your company Tuesday...you just annoy the crap out of me sometimes and I just wanna ring your little neck and....
(pause)
Point is...I like having you around, okay? There....I said it.
OLIVER
(angered and desperate)
NO! You're not taking Tuesday away from me! Just leave us alone!!!
OLIVER
(nonchalant)
Yeah well, I guess I'm just that kind of guy. I just do dances, okay? I'm sorry...
