Meet the cast. 2

Highly quotable.

Oh, here he is. The puppet master is back.

Am I evil, or am I a bitch?

Like, are you breaking up with me, or are you not breaking up with me?

The premise

Here’s the bit.

Andre visits Meegan's apartment to deliver a carefully rehearsed breakup. She answers with breezy approval, then asks him to explain himself and turns his stated reasons into evidence of his own guilt. As the conversation shifts from calm applause to open fury and tears, Andre keeps apologising and backpedalling, until both of them are left unsure whether the relationship has ended at all.
