beats

there are so many lines and reveals that happen in this scene that lead to some (very awkward) pauses and beat changes. way more than three, but I do think there are two main transitions written into the script
1 being right after Elias’ line “does he have like perfect eyesight or something?” - this transitions an awkward but generally light-hearted moment (Jenny looking around the room in her glasses while Elias fights a headache) into something very tense
2 being on Elias’ line “And that made you feel better about yourself? Acting like a prostitute made you feel like a good person?” - this transitions a tense and sort-of “on the edge of your seat” or walking on eggshells moment into a full blown argument

The annotated script has every beat change that I sort of played with in rehearsal, but the ones above are the main two transitions throughout the scene
