Dreams

Cecily Strong

[Starts with Cecily in her bed speaking on the phone]

Cecily: No, mom, I know. I’m glad everyone’s home safe. I just miss things the way they used to be, you know. It’s like the city’s right outside my window but– I know. I know. Okay. I love you too. Bye.

[Cecily hangs up the phone and sleeps]

[Cut to people dreaming of themselves in a busy streets of the city. They’re all enjoying normal life. They’re eating, looking at the crowd, feeding the dogs in the park, etc.]

[Cecily wakes up. There’s a slice of pizza beside her on her bed. Her dog is looking at the pizza.]

Oh, no, you don’t want this. This is a dream pizza. [Dog drools on pizza] Okay.
