To me this scetch is about two men trying to unlayer all politeness, to get down to what the person is actually feeling. Unused to being asked how they REALLY feel, they end up confused, because they are so distant to their deepest self.
I don't know if this makes sence, but whatever.

This piece also comments on the social falseness of life and the illusions we emit while meeting and chatting to people. Then when somebody asks you a genuine question with real meaning you freeze up or do not respond. You quickly respond to pointless chit chat but when the real meaning is brought into it you are silenced. Sorry if that is what you already meant lol. Very Martin Esslin, Theatre of the absurd.
This is such a good piece....well...apart from, oh... you know?

This piece gave me chills.
"Apart from that" delivered in vulnerability on the final line, as pinterguy77 suggests is truly haunting. So much truth is lost in idle banter, particularly in the case of these two ordinary men.
