The scene opens on the second day of Rosh Hashanah as the dawn light comes up, slowly over a minute or more illuminating the bed in which Natalie and Liz doze together, not quite asleep. Eventually, from offstage the sound of the weekly trash collection is heard.

Natalie: Happy garbage day.
Liz: Happy garbage day.
Natalie: Garbage day tovah.
A pause. Liz snickers.
Natalie: Yom ha'garbage.

Both women break down laughing uncontrollably, until Liz gets up and begins her day.
