The Women of Qumar
Act 2
Josh: The UN treaty…Vienna…if we have to make a to-do about it being “forced prostitution”, isn't there a chance it can be spun that we're condoning prostitution?
CJ: Yeah.
Josh: How much of a chance?
CJ: It'll happen.
Josh: Cause Amy'll make it happen.
CJ: Yeah.
Josh: Well, this is a whole new thing then.
Thing = scenario
Act 2
Sam: Anticipating this might become a thing, I wanted to float the idea of a national seatbelt law.
Thing = widespread news story about the President making a joke about seatbelts
Act 4
Amy: Josh. Why did you come here?
Josh: To tell you about the thing.
Thing = decision to have government officials meet with the UN to discuss alternative language (with respect to prostitution) in the pending UN treaty
