Alex: leans in, wipes off makeup Surprise! I’m Alex—well, actually, it’s Alex! Still your crazy partner in crime!
Stranger
yo-
Alex: I can't believe you fell for Sandi's act all this time! What'd I do? Did I not bring my A-game to the improv sessions?
Stranger
no..
Alex: Oh, come on! You gotta give me some credit here. I mean, I had to keep up this whole "secret identity" thing because Sandi couldn't handle the truth. She couldn't handle the fact that her secret crush is actually a dude!
Stranger
I know-
Alex: Seriously? You knew all along? Why didn't you say anything? I spent all this time thinking you were just totally oblivious to my identity!
Stranger
i..
Alex: Look, I'm not mad or anything. Just... why didn't you say anything? Did you enjoy watching me pretend to be someone else for so long?
Stranger
no… it’s complicated…
Alex: Complicated? How complicated? Did you have some hidden agenda all this time, keeping me in the dark? Spill it, Stranger! I deserve to know!
Stranger
no… i wasn’t really trying to hide it.. i was trying to see if this was real..
Alex: raises an eyebrow Trying to see if this was real? So, you had your doubts about us too? Are you serious?
Stranger
no! no- I am sure we are together.. I was trying to see if you were really there..
Alex: Well, let me tell you something, Stranger. I'm always here, no matter what. I may have been pretending to be someone else, but my heart has always been true to you.
Stranger
