Please see Neutral Dialogue - A Game for the premise.
The original neutral dialogue:
1: Look at the moon
2: Ah, I know
1: Why is the water white?
2: I want an ice cream.
1: I ate a brush.
2: I need an [sic] haircut.
Scene Starts:
Two people are standing on an empty stage.
1 appears to be pushing button and turning switches on and off. 2 has placed a hand in empty space around waist high and is leaning over to establish it is some kind of table, looking intently at something and then raises a thumb. This makes 1 stop, then jump and float about as if there is no gravity and take a place next to 2 in slow motion.
1 looks down and excitedly mouths something.
2 pantomimes "I cannot hear."
They both make adjustments to their space helmets.
1. Loo [static] the [static]
Both make some more fine tuning to their helmets
1: [Clearly in a well enunciated voice] Look At The Moon
2 looks down in response
2. [Nods vigorously for a long time in slow motion] Ah, I Know!
They jump and tumble and 1 opens a sort of door and walks in. 2 follows him and closes the door behind him. They check a few things and then make a thumb sign. And simultaneously take their helmets off and exhale.
1 Opens a door in a wall and takes out a pretend bottle and a tray, and passed it to 2. 2 Takes it. and then 1 carries another set to where 1 has placed the food.
They stand near a table and almost synchronised, open their bottle, take the cover off their plate, and look at the food sadly.
1 picks up the bottle and looks at it intently, then smells it investigatorily.
1: Why is the water white?
2 shakes his head in resignation.
2: I want an ice cream.
1 picks up something from the plate and puts it in mouth, chews it for some time and unable to stop, sprays it all over 2.
2 is startled.
1: [Making a face a mix of disgust and guilt, looking down, avoiding 1's eyes] I ate a brush.
2 keeps looking in the direction of 1 astonished. 1 finally looks and smiles sheepishly. That breaks up 2's astonished face, a smile breaks in. They laugh letting it out in small shots, like simpering. They exchange plates and start eating again.
After eating one bite still chewing on it slowly, 2 investigates the recently soiled head, tries to bring a lock of hair to nose and smell it:
Speaking from a mouthful:
2. I nee(d) a(n) (h)air-(c)u(t).
1 nods slowly.
