[redacted]'s ROOM
As Tony wearily enters.
TONY
How you been, buddy?
He props the shotgun in a corner and sits facing [redacted], who stared at him.
. . . Don't look at me like that, neighbor.
It's just me - Tony.
[REDACTED]
I hear it's God. Chaos God.
Tony reaches a flask from his pocket.
TONY
Jesus, people can be cruel . . .
He takes a long draught from his flask, then gives a haunted stare.
. . . if it's not my build, it's my
personality.
Tony is perspiring heavily. The fire rumbles in the hallway.
. . . They say I'm a madman, [redacted],
but I'm not mad at anyone. Honest I'm
not. Most guys I just feel sorry for.
Yeah. It tears me up inside, to think
about what they're going through. How
trapped they are. I understand it. I
feel for 'em. So I try and help them
out . . .
He reached up to loosen his tie and pop his collar button.
. . . Jesus. Yeah. I know what it feels
like, when things get all balled up at the
head office. It puts you through hell,
So I help people out. I just wish
someone would do as much for me . . .
He stares miserably down at his feet.
. . . Jesus it's hot. Sometimes it gets so
hot, I wanna crawl right out of my skin.
Self-pity:
[REDACTED]
But Tony - why me? Why -
TONY
Because you DON'T LISTEN!
