A Problem of Perspective

A tired husband returns home at the end of a work day to his equally tired wife. In the few moments as they talk, their exhaustion and unmet needs create a tense (but comical) exchange. The scene freezes and a counselor appears and explains that he’d like to hear what happened from each of their perspectives. The scene is replayed twice, once from each point of view. It’s hard to believe they’re describing the same situation! The topics include: Marriage, and Truth Telling. The characters are: 1 male, 1 female, and 1 either male or female. The participants are 3 and the author is Judson Poling.
