March

Look on the bright side. Nobody got hurt.

People got hurt.

March

I'm saying, I think they died quickly. So I don't think they got hurt.

March

You seen Chet, the projectionist?

Buddy

Yeah, he just left like 10 minutes ago, went for a drink. And you are?

March

In a hurry. Thanks, buddy.

Buddy

How'd you know my name was Buddy?

1 Protestor
[March and Healy are looking for Amelia at a demonstration where a bunch of people are lying motionless on the steps of the city hall wearing gas masks]

We can't talk to you. We're dead.

March

No I— Yeah I get it. You know. I think it's very clever. I'm hip. But this is actually a really serious matter.

1 Protestor

So is this! We've all been killed!

March

No you haven't.

2 Protestor

**** you man, we're dead!
Bystander [smoking] They can't talk to you man, they're dead.

[to bystander]

What's the protest about, do you know?

Bystander
[to protesters]

Any of you know why you're protesting?

2 Protestor

The air!

Bystander
[to Healy]

Air.

March

You are protesting the air?

2 Protestor

The pollution! The birds can't breathe!

So all of you died 'cause of the pollution?

2 Protestor
[nodding]

Right.

What about the gas masks? They didn't... save you?

March
[when the guy can't answer Healy's question]

This is ****... Alright!

3 Protestor
[starts walking down and accidentally steps on a protester's hand] [screams in pain and pulls her hand]

****er!

March

Sorry. I thought you were dead.

I work in a cesspool. Sex, more sex. My wife, she used to say I make a living off rumpy-pumpy. Whatever. She was English. I don't know what the **** it means either.

So I did something about it. I acted. I didn't plan to, I didn't, you know. I just did it. I took that guy out. I didn't even get paid for it. So I ended up with a bullet in the bicep and 500 bucks of hospital bills. It was stupid, really. When I think about it, it was the best day of my life.

[intoxicated]

Hi everyone, I'm Amelia. She's about... [makes height gesture with his hand] Dark hair. Answers to... [sees topless mermaid swimming in pool] the call of the wild. Just kidding. I forgot her name, but you know, if you see you, just... if you see, let me know, and tell me... tell me my name.
