Girl Meets Boy (Reprise) [US 1994Musical "Sunset Boulevard"]

JOE:How about
They don't know each other
He works the night shift
And she takes classes all day?
Here's the thing
They both share the same room
Sleep in the same bed
It works out cheaper that way
BETTY: I've a feeling you're just kidding
But to me it sounds believable
Makes a better opening than that car chase scene
Girl find boy, borrowing her toothbrush
Or oversleeping
Or at her sewing machine
JOE: You know, it's not bad, there are some real possibilities
BETTY: Who's Norma?
JOE: Who's who?
BETTY: Sorry, I don't usually read private cigarette cases
JOE: Norma's a friend of mine: middle-aged lady, very foolish, very generous
BETTY: I'll say: this is solid gold. "Mad about the boy"?
JOE: So how's Artie?
BETTY: Stuck in Tennessee. It rains all the time - they're weeks behind
No one knows when they'll be back
JOE: Good
BETTY: What's good about it?
I'm missing him something fierce
JOE: No, I mean this idea we had. It's really pretty good
Back to work
BETTY: What if he's a teacher?
JOE: Where does that get us?
Don't see what good it would do
BETTY: No, it's great
If they do the same job
JOE: So much in common
They fall in love, wouldn't you?
BETTY: Yes, but if he's just a teacher
Then we lose those scenes in the factory
JOE: Not if he's a champion for the working man
Girl likes boy, she respects his talent
BETTY: Working with someone can turn you into a fan
JOE: This is fun, writing with a partner
BETTY: Yes, and it could be
JOE: A helluva movie
BETTY: Can we really do this?
BOTH: I know that we can
