Synopsis

Stephanie, an outgoing daycare worker, and Paul, an accountant, have decided to break up. As they are packing up their shared apartment, they decide to give themselves seven minutes on an egg timer to figure out how this happened. They have only been together for three months and realize they know very little about themselves. Can they rescue their relationship in seven minutes before their time is up?

This is a ten minute play.
