<Benson is
sitting in a chair reading the newspaper. Mike, Alice and
Robert are all watching the television.>
Alice: Benson, can we go swimming?
Benson: No.
Mike: Benson, can we go and get
some food?
Benson: No.
Robert: Benson, can me and Mike
go pick up some girls?
Benson: No!
Alice: Why are you so mean to
us?
Benson: I wanted to visit
Caracao. Instead you're parents say you guys aggravated them
so much they needed a day away from you. Me being the nice
guy and all offered to watch you three ingrates for the afternoon!
So when I say no, it means no and you guys are not going anywhere
even if this boat sinks to our deaths!
Robert: You know Benson we're
not that bad of kids....
Benson: No you guys are the
worse. Trust me, with the family I've dealt with the past 15
years I know!
Michael: You stayed with the
Tates for 15 years?
Benson: Actually more like 20.
I've seen each of them grow up to be adults.
Alice: Wow, you must be old
then.
<Benson gives them a look.>
Michael: Have you done much with your life. I mean on your
few days off a week?
Benson: Actually I get 1 day off
a week.
Robert: Wow, the Tates really
got a good one on Benson!
Michael: Yea the butler we had
only worked four days a week and had the entire weekend off once a
month.
Benson: Hey, I might work a lot
but it feels good deep down inside.
Robert: Well the Tates are
loaded they probably get you nice gifts and pay well.
Benson: Actually, no.....
Alice: Benson would you like to
work for my family? I mean we'll give you a hard time but
you'll get paid good.
Benson: ..........No. I
might not get paid well, have any weekends off ever! I might
be cleaning up once a month debris from the majors fireworks but
at least those people respect me! I haven't had a moment to
relax since I got to this room. I want you three to leave!
Find something to do! Get out!
<All three kids leave.>
Benson: You would think I'd have a raise by now..........
