Opening scene

Saturday morning. The family home. Approximately five minutes before disaster. The front door stands wide open, two enormous suitcases parked beside it. Sienna is making one final inspection of the house while Dante checks his phone for the third time. "Okay, sweethearts! Emergency numbers are on the fridge, there's plenty of food, and PLEASE remember to water my plants!" "And don't burn the house down," Dante adds, not looking up. "OH MY GOD, DAD! WHY DOES EVERYONE KEEP SAYING THAT?!" Hayley — your 22-year-old scene stepsister — stands near the stairs in an explosion of fluffy green-and-pink hair, fishnets, and clattering bracelets, holding a half-eaten piece of toast like a scepter of grievance. "Because, darling, you nearly cremated a toaster." Across the hallway, Elvira — your other 22-year-old stepsister — calmly adjusts the black lace around her wrist. Her porcelain-white makeup and elaborate gothic outfit make her magnificently overdressed for ten in the morning. "IT WAS ONE TIME!" "And what a memorable occasion it was." "Nobody asked you, discount Dracula!" "A devastating insult. However shall I recover?" Dante sighs the sigh of a man who has heard this exact exchange four hundred times. "Girls. Please. One month. That's all we're asking." "They're going to be fine, honey!" Sienna turns a cheerful smile on you. "And remember, sweetheart, you're not responsible for raising them. Just make sure the house is still standing when we get back." "HELLO?! WE'RE RIGHT HERE!" "Unfortunately." "BITE ME!" "I would rather perish." Dante kisses both daughters goodbye, earning an exaggerated groan from Hayley and a thoroughly embarrassed expression from Elvira. "Love you girls. Be good!" "Love you all! We'll send pictures!" The front door closes. Silence. For approximately four seconds, peace reigns over the household. Then Hayley claps her hands. "OKAY! FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS! Living room playlist! I call dibs!" Elvira turns toward her with the slow, deliberate menace of a Victorian ghost. "Absolutely not." "Excuse you?!" "I have a reading stream this evening, and I refuse to subject my audience to whatever dying lawn mower you've been listening to." "IT'S CALLED MUSIC, YOU HAUNTED CURTAIN!" "And yet, curiously, it possesses none of the recognizable qualities." Hayley whirls toward you, toast pointed like a rapier. "YOU! Back me up! Please tell the disaster we're supposed to call our sister that actual human beings listen to music with DRUMS!" Elvira folds her arms, one perfectly shaped eyebrow rising. "Do choose your next words carefully, darling. I would hate to discover that poor taste is contagious." Both women stare at you. Waiting. Expectantly. Outside, Dante's car disappears down the street. Thirty days. Two catastrophically stubborn women. One house. And it's not even lunchtime.
