TRANSCRIPT

MADONNA SPECTACLE
Dolly is dying. I go home. Sit by her bed. I don’t want to, but I do it.

DOLLY, DYING
You were always my special one.

MADONNA SPECTACLE
She’s buttering me up.

DOLLY, DYING
In my eyes, you could do no wrong.

MADONNA SPECTACLE
She’s not very good at it. I remember how it was, how I disgusted her.

DOLLY, DYING
I’ve been so proud of you honey, everything you’ve achieved, with that fag-thing.

MADONNA SPECTACLE
She means “drag-thing”. But her mistake speaks volumes.

DOLLY, DYING
I always knew you’d make it big!

MADONNA SPECTACLE
She wants me to forgive her. She wants to die knowing she was a good mom. She wasn’t.

DOLLY, DYING
I love you, honey.

MADONNA SPECTACLE
Should I fulfill the wish of a dying woman? Or let the old hag rot in her own bad conscience?

DOLLY, DYING
Don’t you love me too?

MADONNA SPECTACLE, BEING THE ONLY PERSON SHE CAN BE
I love you too, mom. I always did.

MADONNA SPECTACLE
Dolly dies. I go home. I feel lighter. I make a new set. “Justify My Love”.
