Act One - Evangeline's Punishment

Amelia and Evangeline in the bathroom, at home. Amelia powdering Evangeline’s black eye. 
Evangeline: Get off! It’s not helping! (Pushes Amelia away)
Amelia: Ian’s gonna kill you!
Evangeline: I don’t care anymore. It’s not like it hasn’t happened before. 
Amelia: Your knees are gonna be permanently damaged if you don’t get over your anger issues!  
Evangeline: (shrugs her off and turns to open the door. Ian is standing in the doorway. They have a stare down. Evangeline peers around Ian to look at Zooey. Zooey smiles back and Evangeline lunges at her. Ian grabs her by the shoulders and holds her back.) 
Ian: Solitude room. Three hours.
Lori: Can’t it wait till after dinner?
Ian: (Turns around, holding Evangeline shoulders and begins to march her out of the room) She doesn’t deserve food. 
Everyone: (stands in awe as they watch Ian march Evangeline out of the room.) 
Lori: (sighs) Dinner’s on.
