The Bullpen Season 5 Episode 3: Cotton Candy Talk

LORENZO, ROBERT, ACE, BRYAN, MANNY, and HARRY are all in the bullpen at an Indianapolis Primitives game. 

LORENZO

COTTON CANDY!!!!!!!!!!


BRYAN

I see somebody hasn’t changed. 


ROBERT

Oh actually he has. Got elected to public office as a matter of fact. 


BRYAN

He…what?


LORENZO

I LOVE COTTON CANDY!!!!!!!!!!!!


ACE

Lorenzo, are you okay? 


HARRY

Don’t interact, just leave him alone. 


MANNY

Can you make him some cotton candy, Harry?


HARRY

I don’t have the ingredients. Plus, making cotton candy is more Lorenzo’s thing. 


LORENZO

I’ve been thinking about cotton candy all day, there’s yellow cotton candy which is my new favorite, but also green cotton candy is pretty good too, and blue cotton candy is an all-time classic, really all cotton candy is great except for sugar-free cotton candy, then there’s also—


ROBERT

Lorenzo. I’m exhausted. 


LORENZO

Fine. I’ll go the rest of the game without saying a word about cotton candy. 


ROBERT

I meant I’m exhausted because there was a five-hour rain delay so we’ve been here forever, but I’ll take it. 


MANNY

So Bryan, are you back for good now? 


BRYAN

I don’t know, I haven’t really thought about it. I guess so. Just don’t ask me to pitch. 


MANNY

Don’t worry, I won’t. My goal is to make it through this game without letting any of you outside the boundaries of this bullpen. 


HARRY

You are terrible at your job. 


MANNY

I know. 


A vendor selling cotton candy walks by the bullpen. 


VENDOR

COTTON CANDY! GET YOUR COTTON CANDY HERE!


BRYAN

I don’t remember them ever coming this close to the bullpen. 


ROBERT

Yeah, they usually don’t. 


VENDOR

COTTON CANDY! GET IT NOW OR YOU’RE NOT A TRUE FAN!


LORENZO

So have you guys heard about the latest thing in the news? 


ACE

The what? 


HARRY

I think he’s trying to change the subject. 


VENDOR

COTTON CANDY! GET YOUR COTTON CANDY! YELLOW COTTON CANDY LIMITED TIME ONLY!


LORENZO

So who wants to watch a game of baseball with me? 


BRYAN

Not a huge fan. 


VENDOR

COTTON CANDY! ONLY ONE LEFT!


LORENZO runs out of the dugout and to the cotton candy vendor. A little kid beats him there. LORENZO walks back to the bullpen. 


ACE

Where’s the cotton candy? 


LORENZO

Lost out on it to a little kid. Oh well, there’s plenty more where that came from in the lifetime supply SugarCity’s Kitchen gave me. I guess I lose the bet. 


ROBERT

What bet? 


LORENZO

Oh. Yeah, I guess we never did make a bet about it. 


MANNY

Well if it makes you feel any better, I can have Harry cook you extra food next game.


HARRY

Oh great. 


LORENZO

Deal! Good game everyone. 


LORENZO leaves. 


BRYAN

Doesn’t he know it’s only the fifth inning? 


MANNY

Of course not. But once one of you leaves I might as well let you all leave. 


Everyone leaves.
