[JANNA has woken her husband DOUG to describe what seems like
an angelic visitation. After some skepticism, he gets into it.]
DOUG
Shoot! I can't believe I slept through it. These visitations
are well-documented phenomena. Especially around the millennia.
I mean, go to any occult bookstore. Shelves and shelves of revelations,
all kinds of people are writing them down these days. Especially
with self-publishing. "What Illium of Zorcon revealed to
me about Real Estate Investment Trusts" -- have you surfed
the Web lately?
JANNA
Stop talking. I'm trying to remember it all.
DOUG
Did he say anything?
JANNA
It wasn't...What are you doing?
DOUG
(he's finally found the Bible, is paging through it)
Checking the references. There are a lot of angelic visitations
in here. Maybe we can find out who it was.
JANNA
Why does it have to sound like something that's already written
down? Isn't that the point of a revelation?: something new. And
anyway, the revelation came to me, not you.
DOUG
How do you know it was aimed at you? I was in the room. I
know more about spiritual phenomena than you do. I was the one
who thought about going to seminary. I had even applied.
JANNA
You were fast asleep!
DOUG
Like the disciples. Jesus kept having to wake them up.
JANNA
The Revelation was to me. I can't believe you're trying to
take credit for my revelation! This is typical. You can't WAIT
to get your hands on it.
DOUG
Why wouldn't I have one?
JANNA
Like I'm taking a message for you, your secretary? You are
unbelievable.
