PERFORMANCE NOTES
For this play you will need a small bottle of pills, a glass of water, blue clothes for the woman, a white coat for the doctor, and perhaps special clothes for the nurse.
A man is lying in the street. Rebecca is walking past. She stops and looks at him, then she looks around her – there is nobody there. She starts to walk away, stops, and goes back to look at the man again. Patrick walks past and stops to look at the man.
PATRICK
What's the matter with him?
REBECCA
I don't know.
PATRICK
Is he dead?
Is he dead?'
REBECCA
No, he's alive, I think.
PATRICK
Are you going to help him?
REBECCA
Me? Why me?
PATRICK
You were here first.
REBECCA
Yes, I was, but—
David comes in.
DAVID
What's the matter with him?
PATRICK
We don't know.
DAVID
He looks ill.
REBECCA
His eyes are closed. Look!
DAVID
Perhaps he's asleep.
REBECCA
Asleep? In the street?
PATRICK
Wake him up then.
DAVID
Why me? You do it.
PATRICK
(To Rebecca) What about you?
REBECCA
Me?
PATRICK
Yes. You were here first.
REBECCA
Yes, but it's not my problem.
DAVID
And it's not my problem!
A woman in blue comes in. She kneels down at once to help the man.
REBECCA
Hey, what are you doing?
WOMAN
I'm helping this man, of course!
DAVID
Are you a doctor?
WOMAN
No, I'm not, but he needs help.
REBECCA
Do you know him?
WOMAN
No, I don't.
REBECCA
Then he's not your problem.
WOMAN
Oh, be quiet!
REBECCA
(To the others) Did you hear that? She said, 'Be quiet!'
WOMAN
Be quiet and help.
REBECCA
She said it again!
WOMAN
(To David) Go and call an ambulance.
Go and call an ambulance.'
DAVID
Me?
WOMAN
Yes, you. And be quick.
DAVID
But—
WOMAN
Be quick! (David goes away.) Now you – (turning to
Rebecca) go and get some water.
REBECCA
Where from?
WOMAN
From that house over there. Don't look at me like that. Go!
REBECCA
I'm going. (Rebecca goes away.)
WOMAN
(To Patrick) Feel his pulse.
PATRICK
But I—
WOMAN
Go on! Feel his pulse.
PATRICK
(Kneeling down and taking the man's pulse) Well, he's still alive. He's saying something!
WOMAN
What is he saying?
PATRICK
He said, 'Pills,' I think.
WOMAN
(To Patrick) Pills? Look in his pocket.
PATRICK
I can't do that!
WOMAN
Look in his pocket!
Patrick looks in the man's coat pocket.
PATRICK
There's a bottle with some writing on it.
WOMAN
What does it say? Read it!
PATRICK
It says, 'For the heart. If you feel ill, take one of these pills.'
Rebecca comes back with a glass of water.
REBECCA
I've got the water.
WOMAN
Good. (To Patrick) Give him one of the pills with some water.
Patrick helps the man to sit up. He gives him a pill and some water.
MAN
(Very quietly) Thank you, thank you!
PATRICK
How do you feel?
MAN
A little better now.
The woman in blue goes away. The others do not see this. David comes running back.
DAVID
The ambulance is coming.
PATRICK
Good.
DAVID
How is he?
REBECCA
He's feeling a little better.
A doctor and a nurse come in. Patrick stands up.
DOCTOR
(Kneeling down by the man) What's the matter?
What's the matter?'
MAN
I was ill. It was my heart. That man gave me one of my pills. I'm all right now.
The doctor and the nurse help him to stand up.
NURSE
What's your name?
MAN
Scott. Michael Scott.
DOCTOR
Michael Scott, the famous TV chef?
MAN
Yes, that's right.
NURSE
Come with us, Mr Scott. We'd like to take you to hospital.
MAN
But I feel better now.
NURSE
Perhaps, but you must go to hospital.
MAN
All right. (Turning to the others) Well, thank you very much, everybody.
DAVID
That's all right.
REBECCA
We're happy to help.
PATRICK
Get well soon.
MAN
Thank you again. Goodbye!
The doctor and the nurse help Scott to walk away.
REBECCA
He's alive, and he's going to be OK.
PATRICK
He's alive because we were here.
DAVID
Michael Scott—
REBECCA
The famous TV chef!
PATRICK
We can all feel very pleased, I think.
REBECCA
Oh yes, we can.
DAVID
What about the woman?
REBECCA
Which woman?
DAVID
The woman who helped. Where is she?
PATRICK
Oh, her! I remember. She didn't help us.
DAVID
Do this, do that,' she said. 'Be quick!'
REBECCA
She said, 'Be quiet,' to me.
PATRICK
That's right. I didn't like her. Did you?
REBECCA
No, I didn't. Where is she now?
PATRICK
She walked away.
DAVID
That's right – she just walked away. She didn't want to help.
REBECCA
We did everything.
DAVID
Yeah. Everything.
PATRICK
Today was an important day for us.
DAVID
It was. We helped someone famous.
REBECCA
Because of us he didn't die.
DAVID
We were there for him.
PATRICK
It was the right thing to do.

Yes, it was. Well done, everybody!

Well done to all of us!
Well done, everybody!'

场景说明
演这部剧，你将需要一小瓶药丸、一杯水、蓝色女装、一件医生穿的白大褂，也许还要护士制服。
一个男人躺在大街上。丽贝卡走过时，停下脚步看看他，又环顾四周——周围一个人都没有。她准备走开，却又停下脚步，转回来再次看着那个男人。帕特里克走过时，也停下脚步看着那个男人。
帕特里克：
他怎么了？
丽贝卡：
我不知道。
帕特里克：
他死了吗？
丽贝卡：
不，我想他还活着。
帕特里克：
你打算帮他吗？
丽贝卡：
我？为什么是我？
帕特里克：
你先到这儿的。
丽贝卡：
是我先到的，不过——
戴维走过来。
戴维：
他怎么了？
帕特里克：
我们不知道。
戴维：
他看上去像是不舒服。
丽贝卡：
他的眼睛是闭着的。瞧！
戴维：
也许他是睡着了。
丽贝卡：
睡着了？在大街上？
帕特里克：
那把他叫醒吧。
戴维：
为什么是我？你来把他叫醒。
帕特里克：
（对丽贝卡）你来怎么样？
丽贝卡：
我？
帕特里克：
是呀。你先到这儿的。
丽贝卡：
你说得没错，不过这不是我的问题。
戴维：
这也不是我的问题！
一个蓝衣女人走过来。她立刻跪下来帮助那个男人。
丽贝卡：
嘿，你在干什么？
蓝衣女人：
我当然是在帮助这个人！
戴维：
你是医生吗？
蓝衣女人：
不，我不是，但他需要帮助。
丽贝卡：
你认识他吗？
蓝衣女人：
不，我不认识他。
丽贝卡：
那他就不是你的问题。
蓝衣女人：
嘿，安静！
丽贝卡：
（对其他人）你们听见了吗？她说“安静！”
蓝衣女人：
安静，过来帮忙。
丽贝卡：
她又说了这话！
蓝衣女人：
（对戴维）去叫救护车。
戴维：
我？
蓝衣女人：
是的，就是你。赶快去。
戴维：
可是——
蓝衣女人：
赶快！（戴维离开。）现在，你——（转向丽贝卡）去弄些水来。
丽贝卡：
到哪里弄？
蓝衣女人：
到那边的那座房子。别那样看着我。快去！
丽贝卡：
我这就去。（丽贝卡离开。）
蓝衣女人：
（对帕特里克）测他的脉搏。
帕特里克：
可是我——
蓝衣女人：
来呀！测他的脉搏。
帕特里克：
（跪下测那个男人的脉搏）哦，他还活着。他在说些什么！
蓝衣女人：
他在说什么？
帕特里克：
我想他说的是“药丸”。
蓝衣女人：
（对帕特里克）药丸？看看他的口袋。
帕特里克：
我不能那样做！
蓝衣女人：
看看他的口袋！
帕特里克看了看那个男人的外套口袋。
帕特里克：
里面有个瓶子，上面写了一些字。
蓝衣女人：
写的是什么？念一下！
帕特里克：
上面写着：“适用于心脏问题。如果感觉不适，服用一粒药丸。”
丽贝卡端着一杯水回来。
丽贝卡：
我弄到水了。
蓝衣女人：
好。（对帕特里克）用水给他服一粒药丸。
帕特里克扶那个男人坐起来，给他一粒药丸和一些水。
男人：
（声音微弱地）谢谢你，谢谢你！
帕特里克：
你感觉怎么样？
男人：
现在好点了。
蓝衣女人离开，但其他人没有看见。戴维跑回来。
戴维：
救护车马上就来。
帕特里克：
那就好。
戴维：
他怎么样？
丽贝卡：
他感觉好点了。
一位医生和一位护士走过来。帕特里克站起来。
医生：
（跪在那个男人身旁）怎么回事？
男人：
我觉得不舒服，是心脏的毛病。那个人给我服了一粒我带的药丸。我现在没事了。
医生和护士扶他站起来。
护士：
你叫什么名字？
男人：
斯科特，迈克尔·斯科特。
医生：
迈克尔·斯科特，电视上那位著名的大厨？
男人：
是的，没错。
护士：
跟我们走吧，斯科特先生。我们要送你去医院。
男人：
但我现在感觉好些了。
护士：
可能是这样。不过你还是得上医院。
男人：
好吧。（转向其他人）对了，非常感谢各位。
戴维：
别客气。
丽贝卡：
我们很乐意帮忙。
帕特里克：
祝你早日康复。
男人：
再次表示感谢，再见！
医生和护士搀扶斯科特离开。
丽贝卡：
他还活着，他会没事的。
帕特里克：
他还活着，是因为我们刚才在这儿。
戴维：
迈克尔·斯科特——
丽贝卡：
电视上那位著名的大厨！
帕特里克：
我想我们都有资格感到非常高兴。
丽贝卡：
哦，是的，没错。
戴维：
那个女人呢？
丽贝卡：
哪个女人？
戴维：
刚才帮忙的那个女人，她去哪里了？
帕特里克：
哦，她呀！我记得她。她并没有帮助我们。
戴维：
“做这个，做那个。”她说，“赶快！”
丽贝卡：
她对我说，“安静。”
帕特里克：
没错。我不喜欢她。你呢？
丽贝卡：
不，我也不喜欢她。她现在去哪里了？
帕特里克：
她走了。
戴维：
没错——她就那样走了。她并不想帮忙。
丽贝卡：
所有的事情都是我们做的。
戴维：
是呀。所有的事情。
帕特里克：
今天对我们来说是重要的一天。
戴维：
是的。我们帮助了一位名人。
丽贝卡：
因为我们他才没有丢掉性命。
戴维：
是我们帮助了他。
帕特里克：
这是应该做的事。
丽贝卡：
对。两位干得漂亮！
戴维：
（对丽贝卡）你也干得漂亮——
帕特里克：
我们大家都干得漂亮！
