" Sunshine Marigold says, "However, all I'm going to explain is that Joy is reading the part of this rich English dude, who's my dad. 'K? 'K. " Sunshine Marigold grins. (Sunshine Marigold walks onto the stage and nods to the stagehands, who immediately get to work moving two backdrops behind her. Attached to the backgrounds are several pedestals, each holding a beautiful golden goose above a small scale. The scales read "Bad" and "Good". They continue creating the look of a combination laboratory and hatchery.) (Sunshine Marigold walks back off-stage, and the lights dim for a few moments.) (Sunshine Marigold walks back on with Joy as the lights come back on. They stop and watch as a goose lays an egg, which falls onto the scale and is deemed "Good". An employee collects the egg and starts to polish it. Another egg, rated "Bad", is sent down a chute labeled "Incinerator".) (Sunshine Marigold turns to Joy.) Sunshine Marigold says, "I want one! I want a golden goose." (Sunshine Marigold wanders over to one and studies it.) Sunshine Marigold says, "Gooses, geeses... I want my goose to lay gold eggs for Easter."

(Sunshine Marigold picks a shiny egg up from a pile.) Sunshine Marigold sings: "I want tomorrow..." (Sunshine Marigold tosses the egg half-heartedly back towards the heap, as the employees desperately try to catch it in time. One does, and places it carefully on a shelf with a glare towards Sunshine.) Sunshine Marigold sings: "I want to wear Braids in my hair And I don't want to share 'em!!!!" (Sunshine Marigold tosses her long blonde hair around defiantly, then suddenly becomes quite sweet and gentle.) Sunshine Marigold sings: "I want a party with roomfuls of laughter..."

Sunshine Marigold sings: "And if I don't get the things I am after..." (Sunshine Marigold 's face suddenly becomes red and furious.) Sunshine Marigold sings: "I'm going to SCREAM!!!!!" (Sunshine Marigold shrieks ear-piercingly as she snatches a nearby cart and tosses it towards a precarious pile of wrapped boxes. She grabs some ribbon and runs around the room, tossing it on the walls and workers. She laughs cruelly as they struggle to repair the damage as it's done.) Joy Nalewi seems worried. Sunshine Marigold sings: "I want the works! I want the whole works! Presents and prizes and sweets and surprises Of all shapes and sizes and now... " Sunshine Marigold yells, "Don't care how, I want it now!" Sunshine Marigold sings: "Don't care how..." (Sunshine Marigold climbs up on one of the scales.) Sunshine Marigold sings: "I want it..." (Sunshine Marigold is startled by a sudden honking noise, and glances at the scale she's on to see that it's leaning toward the "Bad Egg" side. Her platform suddenly drops open, and she disappears.) Sunshine Marigold sings: "Noooooooooooooooowwwwww." Sunshine Marigold says, "Fin." Sunshine Marigold smiles.

After a moment the crowd quiets down. Ashley London exclaims, "Thank you, Megan!" Ashley London exclaims, "Next is Coral Quentintine!" Coral Quentintine stands up to address the assembly. Coral Quentintine recites: "I'd like to dedicate this song to someone who meant a lot to me and has betrayed me." Coral Quentintine recites: "My fiance. Or, perhaps I should say ex-fiance, who left me all alone, hanging on the dredges of suicide and self-destruction. There goes the love of my life, out the window. Thank you, Michael, or whoever you really are. I really appreciate how you've ruined my life." Coral Quentintine recites: "I would also like to dedicate this song to my godmother, Sue. She means the world to me, and is dying of lung cancer which spread throughout her body. A few days ago, she had a big brain operation to remove some tumors, but it wasn't a cure. There is no cure, at this point. Please, everyone, say a prayer for her. If you don't believe in praying, then just make a wish for her health and happiness in her final days." (Coral Quentintine feels tears trickle down her face as the lonely and melancholy song of a violin streams through the room.) Coral Quentintine sings sweetly: "There was a time in my life When I opened my eyes and there you were&" Coral Quentintine sings sweetly: "You were more than a dream I could reach out and touch you Yeah, that was long ago."

(Coral Quentintine wonders why she's the one who always has to let go.) Coral Quentintine sings sweetly: "When I dream about you That's when everything's alright You're in my arms here next to me forever&" (Coral Quentintine closes her eyes and appears to drift off to sleep for a moment, before jolting herself back into the harsh, cruel reality of the real world.) Coral Quentintine sings sweetly: "When I dream about you Boy you never go away Just close my eyes, wait for my dreams 'Cause I still love, love you" (Coral Quentintine lets out a soft sob. You feel yourself biting your lip and gazing thoughtfully at the young woman. She seems so unhappy&how can this happen to someone who used to be so full of happiness and spirit?) Coral Quentintine sings sweetly: "How can I get you to see That I'm falling apart since you've been gone? I can never be sure I could ever let go Your love is much to strong." (Coral Quentintine thinks of all the times she said "I love you," and realizes just how empty that phrase is.)

Coral Quentintine sings sweetly: "When I dream about you That's when everything's alright You're in my arms here next to me forever" (Coral Quentintine pulls her knees to her chest and gazes up at the star-filled sky.

Coral Quentintine sings sweetly: "When I dream about you Boy you never go away Just close my eyes Wait for my dreams Cause I still love, love you" (Coral Quentintine listens to the depressing hum of a violin. Somehow, the violins are the right instrument for her emotions. A wistful smile falls across her face as her voice echoes eerily throughout the small Cantina.) Coral Quentintine sings sweetly: "There are some things that I guess I'll never know When you love someone, you've gotta learn to let them go.." (Coral Quentintine is no longer trying to hide her sorrow. A look of pain crosses her tear-streaked face and Coral's voice warbles a bit.) Coral Quentintine sings sweetly: "When I dream about you, that's when everything's alright You're in my arms, here next to me forever.." Coral Quentintine sings sweetly: "When I dream about you Boy you never go away Just close my eyes wait for my dreams 'Cause I still love, love you" (Coral Quentintine waits until the shrill song of the violin dissipates and runs off the stage, bitter sobs racking her pain-ridden soul.)
