Hi. My name is Stephanie Millette, and I'll be performing. It's terrible being nice from the play. Goodbye, Charles by Gabriel Davis. Don't do it. Don't open that little box. One more crack. Don't ask me to marry. Don't say another word. Just listen. I can't let you do this to me. I mean, before I met you, I used to be such a *****. I mean, seriously, everyone at work thought I was a huge *****. No one actually liked me. Those people I introduce to you as my friends, they're not my friends. They're scared of me or the word. Before I met you before you, I never said please or thank you at restaurants. I never smiled or laughed at anyone's jokes, but mine I've ever used to tip more than 10%. I was quick with insults. I always had a cruel word. I was cold cross grass, mostly compassionate. But since being with you, I've begun to foil all warm inside Ozzy, I find myself wind stroll in the park and whistle. I have these thoughts these urges to donate to charities and help out in soup kitchens and hug people. Since being with you I've given nearly $10 to a homeless man. How three old ladies prostrate and I bought one of my so called friends A present at full price. And it is something I knew she'd like. Don't you see? Don't you see? You've made me nice. And what really scares me is that you'll open that box and asked me to marry you. And I'll I'll just nicely say yes. Then I will be nice for life. I'll be singing Kumbayah for the rest of my days. I'll give back to the community, to the Salvation Army, to the Make a Wish Foundation. And I'll do it anonymously. And then one day, years from now I'll wake up and I'll have the horrible realization that I lived a good life that I contributed. Please, for the love of God, put that box away. I mean, the planet already has millions of nice people. It doesn't need me to I am a ***** And I want to stay that way. Please stop. Don't I'm asking. No, I'm beg me. I'm getting down on my knees. Will you please please not marry me? Thank you.
