Act III, Scene 1
Enter Chris (the painter and his assistant)
Chris: We're here to paint.
Abbey: Great, here's where the leak was and we also want you to paint the stairwell and hallway. My husband has that paint in the back of his Jeep. He'll be here in a minute, although he said he would be home by now.
Chris: Okay. (Chris and assistant start moving things in living room and covering them up with protective covering.)
Act III, Scene 2
A few minutes later, Jeff enters.
Jeff: Hey
Painters: Hey.
Jeff: Here's the paint for the stairwell. We're going to go eat at Chick-fil-a, so you all can just paint away.
Chris: Okay.
Jeff: Oh yeah, we'll just leave your check on the counter.
Chris: Okay.
Abbey: Do you think we should go ahead and get them to paint the ceiling in the bedroom?
Jeff: Sure, do you all have time?
Chris: How big is it?
Jeff: Well, there's a tray ceiling, so there is not a lot of space to cover. Come take a look.
Chris: We'll do it if we have time.
Jeff: Great. Just call us if you need us.
Chris: Okay.
Act III, Scene 3
Enter Jeff and Abbey
Abbey: Wow, it looks great.
Jeff: Man, this is amazing.
Painters: uh.
Abbey: Did you get the ceiling in the bedroom?
Chris: Not tonight.
Jeff: Well, this looks great. Thanks so much. We'll call you when we can set up a time to come back to do the ceiling.
Chris: Okay.

I must say I'm most impressed that a painter and an assistant can do such a fantastic job in such a short period of time. Sometimes men of few words can be men of great talents, which I believe is the case here, huh?
I'm sure glad you can rest now, Jeff, since you won't be bothered by the "little" extra paint encroached on the ceiling.
P.S. Are you sure you and Abbey haven't missed your callings. I believe you two could be horticulturists, yard workers or whatever! Great job at the IL's.
