lessons from louise

by Constantine Sandis

Carmen is on the mattress eating all her favourite snacks. All is fine until she realises that she has misplaced her pistachios. This triggers a deep psychological crisis. Louise, who is here to help her friend recover from a well-documented swearing disease, is sitting by the table recording the emotional outburst which ensues. They begin an introspective discussion. Soon enough it turns into a row in the climax of which Carmen accuses Louise of stealing her pistachios. Things will never be the same again.
