(Hattie, Dee, and Jad chatting inaudibly; a glimpse of chips and lollies in bowls.)
Another girl arriving through the front door: Nina! There's a ping pong table out on your street! You should get it!
Nina (hugging her): Where am I supposed to put a ping pong table?
Girl: Um, in the backyard!
Zoe: Ping pong! What a great idea! Hi, I'm Zoe!
Jad: I heard you and Chris broke up! I'm sorry.
Zoe: Yeah, single again haha
Angie: Wait you were dating Chris!?
Zoe: Not Jad's Chris... another one. Chris Simon.
Nina (looking around): Oh Chris Simon? Does he do comp sci?
Zoe: Yeah?
Nina: He was in my group assignment last semester. How funny. Didn't realise that was your ex!
