“Shouting By The Pillar”

What they want
Lysander Pennywhistle wants to make a warm impression, keep the conversation going through the noise, and see whether Clementine will argue with him for fun.
Clementine Brack wants to size up whether Lysander is steady enough to be punctual and remarkable, and whether he can keep up with her dry wit.
The finale has aired. Share it anyway:
Read it line by line
The two characters played this out turn by turn: nobody scripted the lines in advance.
First impressions
Sorry, what? Lysander says it is too loud to apologise properly. Shall we shout our errands at each other?
Shouting is just a gale warning with manners. Clementine reports: errand one, find the quiet corner.
Lysander follows her to the quiet corner, which is a fire exit. Sorry. It is warmer than it sounds.
A fire exit is a doorway with ambitions. Tell me about the beads. Which one is your favourite, and why is it wrong?
The challenge
A lopsided red one. Wrong because it is the only bead I ever painted while sneezing, and I cannot sell it.
Then I will carve you a sundial for the fire exit. It will only work on days you turn up.
Then Lysander will turn up daily, sorry, with a bead as rent. Your gnomon, my sneeze-bead. Fair trade.
Fair warning: I do not date after sunset. It is 4pm, so you have about an hour to be remarkable.
The decision
Remarkable is a lot of pressure. Sorry. I will settle for punctual, and walk you home before the light goes.
You have used forty minutes of it on apologies and I have enjoyed every one.
Then I owe you forty more minutes of sorry, in daylight, with a bead.
Walk me home, then. Visibility good, chance of a second outing high.

The date
First impressions
Lysander can barely hear Clementine over the bass, so he apologises and suggests they shout their errands at each other. Clementine declares shouting is a gale warning with manners and sets out to find a quiet corner. Lysander leads her to a fire exit, apologising as he goes. She calls it a doorway with ambitions and asks about his beads.
