Costume Party [Kevin T, Hannah, Diane & Kevin J]

[Janice]
3: 45 A.M. overnight, the community's population has gone
From approximately 9, 000 to 16, 000
I'm sure barely any of us have slept tonight. We're hopeful
That our visitors will be back in the air come morning

[Kevin T]
I woke up from this dream which I can't quite remember
But there was this music in it that I'd heard somewhere before

[Kevin J]
I woke up from a dream that we were stuck in some backwater Canadian town
And that my air mattress deflated

[Bob]
I woke up to the smell of
Freshly baked bread?

[Annette]
4am in Newfoundland is breakfast time in Germany
And we got a lot of passengers here from Frankfurt
So breakfast starts at 4am and we start scrambling eggs

[Bob]
Poached eggs, scrambled eggs, omelettes

[Diane]
Fried Bologna

[Nick]
Something called toutons

[Kevin T]
I saw a casserole dish I don't think I could lift

[Bob]
They made enough food to feed 7, 000 people
It's like they never slept

[Beulah]
There's this one man from the Middle East
Well, we don't really know
Hasn't said a word to a soul
And some of the other passengers seem a bit wary of him
So it's a little odd to find him poking around the kitchen

[Ali]
Hello

[Beulah]
Hello
Can I help you with something?

[Ali]
I would like to be of assistance
With the food

[Beulah]
Oh, no. That's not necessary

[Ali]
But I am

[Beulah]
Really?
You go out there and sit down

[Claude]
I've been going all night, but I can't stop
None of us can
I splash some cold water on my face and just keep going
We've got 7, 000 scared and angry people who don't want to be here
And they're about to wake up

[Diane]
In a crowded room
Filled with strangers sleeping

[Kevin T]
An airplane blanket
And pillow on the floor

[Diane]
The Sun comes streaming
Through the window

[Kevin T and Diane]
And I can't sleep anymore

[Kevin J]
Staring at these strangers
Waking up around me

[Hannah]
Sitting in a crowd of people
Waiting for the phone

[Kevin J]
And in a town that's suddenly
Doubled population

[Kevin T, Hannah, Diane and Kevin J]
I feel so alone

[Kevin J]
It's like any of us could have died
On Tuesday

[Kevin T]
And like we're dared to see things
Differently today

[Diane]
I'm feeling different

[Hannah]
Distant

[Kevin J]
Strange

[Kevin T]
Who are these people here?

[Hannah]
Where am I?

[Diane]
No one knows me here

[Kevin T, Hannah, Diane and Kevin J]
Who am I if I don't feel like
The me from yesterday

[Nick]
I wake up in a crowded room full of people sleeping on the floor
And I see Diane and ask, are we leaving?

[Diane]
Any time now

[Nick]
Is your hair different? I mean
You look good
I like it

[Diane]
Hm! Thank you
No shampoo for three days

[Kevin T]
They start handing out clothes to anyone who needs them

[Kevin J]
I haven't changed my clothes in thirty-nine hours

[Bob]
I wanted to burn my socks

[Kevin J]
Kevin puts on this plaid thing
He says he's incognito and that he's going to blend in with the natives
But he just looks like a gay lumberjack

[Diane]
Changing into another woman's
Donated set of clothes

[Kevin T]
Looking different
Feeling kind of different too

[Diane]
I can't quite explain

[Kevin T]
But when I woke

[Diane]
When David wasn't on that plane

[Kevin T and Diane]
It's like I changed into somebody else
But who?
And it's somehow like we're at a costume party

[Kevin T]
And for a second you are not yourself

[Diane]
You are not yourself

[Kevin T]
And you look around
And blink your eyes

[Diane]
And barely even recognize

[Kevin T and Diane]
The person in the mirror who's
Turned into someone else

[Kevin J]
Hey Little Sister -
Yeah, still here where they eat rainbows for breakfast
Are you taking care of mom?
No, I just wish I was home
No, not LA., Brooklyn
Shut up
You're such a brat
No, I just needed to hear your voice

[Beulah]
Excuse me?
Are you Hannah?

[Hannah]
Yeah, that's me

[Beulah]
My name's Beulah, someone told me your son's a firefighter
Yeah, mine is too
Here in town
And I know Gander's not New York but
Is there anything I can do?

[Hannah]
No, I just need to hear from my son

[Beulah]
I understand

[Hannah]
Praying for a phone call

[Kevin J]
Praying for a way home

[Hannah and Kevin J]
Asking questions

[Kevin J]
Asking can I get back on that Godforsaken plane?

[Hannah]
And all around me, people chat

[Kevin J]
And people snack

[Hannah and Kevin J]
Like nothing's happened
And I need to hear we're going back
Before I go insane

[Beverley]
Good morning
I'm Captain Bass
I've just heard from the airline
Now I know this is going to be hard to hear
But the American airspace remains closed
I can't tell you how long we'll be on the ground
But, we are gonna be here for some time

[Diane]
Here for some time

[Kevin J]
Here for some time

[Hannah]
Here for too long

[Kevin T]
Here for how long

[Kevin J]
When will we know

[Actors 4, 5, 6, 7, 11]
When will we know

[Company]
How much longer?

[Hannah]
Beulah, wait
Can you help me find a Catholic church?

[Diane]
I can't sit here
I need to get some air

[Kevin T]
Let's go see where we are
The Sun's out
It'll do you good

[Kevin J]
Seriously? You know what, go get lost in the woods
I'm going to be ready when we leave

[Hannah and Kevin J]
And it's somehow like we're stuck
Here at a messed up costume party

[Diane and Kevin J]
And there's nothing here familiar

[Hannah and Kevin J]
Far away from those you care for

[Kevin T, Hannah, Diane and Kevin J]
On an isolated island in between
There and here

[All]
There and here
