Act 2, Scene 3

Isn't this the part in the story when the main character, with the half-genuine smile, goes into the bathroom, rinses her face with cold water and then spends a couple of long minutes looking at the reflection in the mirror asking herself, "What the hell am I doing here?"

Then it usually goes one of two ways: Either she breaks the trance by grabbing a towel, drying her hands and putting the smile back on, or she packs her bags and doesn't leave a note.

I wish there was another alternative.
