It is All-Hallow's Eve and we find ourselves in Matt's studio/the TV room. Danica, only seconds ago, has previously been transcribing downstairs in the living room. She comes upstairs, just as dusk sets in, to have a very strange conversation with her husband...
Danica enters and sits unexpectingly in Matt's armchair.
Matt: (painting) You wanna watch The Office?
Danica: Not yet, I'm going to finish some work.
43 seconds pass.
Matt: (painting) Umm, so was that a yes? You want to watch The Office?
Danica: No... I said I need to finish some work.
Matt: Oh.
22 seconds pass.
Matt: (still painting) Well, what are you doing up here, then?
Danica: I came up here because it's getting dark out and we don't have any candy.
Matt: (painting) Oh.
1 second passes.
Matt: (turning) What did you just say?
Danica: I said I came up here because it's getting dark out and we don't have any candy.
Matt: You came up here because "it's dark and we don't have any candy"?
Matt is looking at Danica, half confused and also slightly amused at what he thinks is a euphamism.
