What kind of names are Johnnypateenmike and Babbybobby? I can't tell if they are exceptionally Irish or just absurd (which may just be a point in the favor of Irish anyway).

Considering the title, be warned of some pretty explicit ableism throughout the play. Also, a whole lot of eggs.

EILEEN: I heard you did drop all the eggs on the egg-man the other day, Helen, broke the lot of them.

HELEN: I didn't drop them eggs at all. I went pegging them at Father Barratt, got him bang in the gob with fecking four of them.

EILEEN: Sure, pegging eggs at priest, isn't it pure against God?

HELEN: Oh, maybe it is, but if God went touching me arse in choir practice I'd peg eggs at that fecker too.

Billy's story was secondary to how much I enjoyed reading Helen be wild. With her eggs and her brother's "fecking telescope".
