Phoebe was fine at working through nerves, so as the curtain finally went up, and the play started, she was able to step into character and perform her lines admirably. She hit her marks. She was winsome and charming (she hoped, yikes).

The energy on stage was WRONG, though, and her own energy was being impacted by it. Like, from rehearsal, she knew that this was about the point where she just trusted the process and it was all smooth sailing from here. But it didn't feel smooth. Her stomach was churning, for some reason, and she would swear that everyone seemed a little nervy.

Teddy's fault. He shouldn't have given a cheesy speech. That was a definite JINXER. Phoebe swallowed her own line when she came in at the wrong bit, and when it came time for someone to surreptitiously clip a line to the flying rig under her nightgown, Phoebe stepped away from the clip and shoved blindly. "NO." No flying. It wasn't safe.
