Act I
Scene One: Teenager tells Queen Mom that he is going skiing with Teenager Buddy.
Queen Mom replies, “FOUR HOUR DRIVE? IN THE SNOW? BY YOURSELVES? NO WAY!!”
“We’re going with an 18-year-old Mom!”
“You’re going with an 18-year-old? EVEN MORESO...NOOOO WAAAYYYY!!”
“But…but…but….”
“NOT A CHANCE!”
“Will you take us?”
“ARE YOU KIDDING? DO YOU KNOW HOW BUSY WE ARE? NOOOO WAAAYYYY!”
Scene Two: Queen Mom and Dad-Who-Would-Be-Outlaw wake up at 3:30 a.m. to make four-hour drive to escort Teenager and Teenager Buddy to ski resort. Mythical 18-year-old nowhere in sight.
Scene Three: Nuclear family arrives at resort. Snowboards resting on shoulders, Teenager and Teenager Buddy march into falling snow like toy soldiers.
Scene Four: Teenager Buddy executes fabulous trick and soars back from far reaches of sky to stick landing. Snowboard catches in wet snow. Teenager Buddy careens face-first into snowdrift as snowboard snaps in half.
Act II
Scene One: Undaunted by tragedy, Teenager and Teenager Buddy share remaining half of snowboard for sledding antics (see photos above).
