[Joe pleads with his lover Susie on the couch at his apartment.]
Joe:  We've got tonight. Who needs tomorrow? We've got tonight, babe. So why don't you stay?
[Susie stands up, grabs coat. Moves stage left.]
Susie:  No. I'm never gonna dance again. Guilty feet have got no rhythm. 
[Joe stands and moves stage left, puts arms around Susie]
Joe[tenderly]:  Why do you build me up, buttercup, just to let me down? 
Susie [tearing herself away]:  I'm going to Graceland!
Joe [getting angry]:  Private eyes are watching you! They see your every move! 
Susie [pulling a gun]:  Graceland!       
Joe[hands in the air]:   Relax! Don't do it!
Susie[inching out the door with the gun pointed at Joe]:  Memphis, Tenessee!
Joe[scornfully]:   I'll survive. As long as I know how to love, I know I'll be alive.
Susie[scornfully]:  What's love got to do with it?  
[Susie slams door.]
