well, i dun remember the "scene", i remember quotes from the play and relate it to the questions... and from the quotes i put in, i usually explain the situation before hand...so its like me retelling the scene with evident (just like a related material)...

some quotes that relates to technique i recall are:

BRIDIE SLAPS SHEILA
"you're alive today because of me, don't you ever forget that!"

"just after dawn when my nose felt like Pinnochinos..."

"Don't! I don't want to hear this!"

sorry, i only recall 3 quotes on top of my head...but as you can see, the technique Misto used can be evident from those quotes...
say the first one....the incident was marked by the physical abuse of bridie towards sheila...this along with their 50yrs unstable friendship shows the frustration and anger between the once two best friends...
second quote you will talk about the juxaposition where Misto used black humor to cover the tragic incident where they are both floating on the sea....

symbolism: voice of rick, the shoe horn (has many lives)

the stage directions: how he is very specific in what the actors must do
