Capt. Ramey

Who's your lawyer?

Kelly Shepard

We don't have a lawyer.

Capt. Ramey

He specifically asked that his attorney be brought down here to negotiate his surrender.

Kelly Shepard

Well, we never needed one.

Capt. Ramey

Well, you need a good one now.

Felicia

Get done in there, gotta hit this trick spot before the next bitch take my score.

Stu

Look go away!

Felicia

Go away? Hang up the ****in' phone, ****!

Stu
[Stu looks at Felicia and then close the booth]
Felicia

This mother****er! You don't eyeball me! Bitch!
[Felicia walks away]

Felicia

Goddammit, man! You done made me hurt my dick hand.

Stu

Ooooh! I'm sure you're just as good with the other hand.

Pizza Guy
[knocks on Phone Booth]

Excuse me.

Stu

I'm tryna make a call here.

Pizza Guy

This is for you. Half pepperoni, Half mushroom, Extra crisp.

Stu

You ever heard of delivering a Pizza to a **** Phone Booth? I don't think so.

Pizza Guy
[Reads address label on Pizza]

Gentleman occupying Phone Booth, 53rd between Broadway and 8th.

Stu

It's a mistake.

Pizza Guy

What am I supposed to do with the pie? It's all paid for?

Stu

Homeless guy just ran the block, give him the Pizza and say 'You can turn away from it but you can't make it go away', how's that?

Pizza Guy
[Tries to open Phone Booth door]

But, they always...

Stu
[Stu gets agitated]

GET OFF THE **** PIZZA, ALRIGHT?!

Pizza Guy

That language is uncalled for.

Stu

Holy shit. I'm sorry. Please return to sender. **** OFF! Here you go, $5, eat the pizza yourself, you look like you could use a good meal.

Stu
[to Caller]

Stay the **** out of this

Capt. Ramey

Who do you keep talking to on the phone?

Stu

Nobody

Capt. Ramey

Your ah... your friend, your parent, your lover? Who?

The Caller

Careful, Stuart. Careful.

Stu

My psychiatrist.

The Caller
[laughs]

Excellent! I should have thought of that.

Stu

I already told you this is a private conversation. Now, what the **** do you want?

Capt. Ramey

I just want you to know, that it's safe outside the booth.

The Caller

No, it's not.

Stu

Always get out of the booth. I like in the **** booth. It's my whole world now, this is my booth and I'm not coming out ever. You hear me? Never.

Stu

So you'd just whack me for no particular reason?

The Caller

Oh, I've got plenty of reasons. And you keep giving me more.

Stu

What did I do to deserve this, huh? Why me?

The Caller

If you have to ask, then you're not ready to know yet.

Stu

Where? Where are you?

The Caller

There are hundred of windows out there. Why don't you check them out?

Stu

You can see me right now?

The Caller

Uh-huh.

Stu

What am I doing?

The Caller
[Stu scratches himself]

You're scratching your ear. Now you're brushing your hair back.

The Caller
[Stu gives the finger to the windows in the buildings around him]

That's not very nice, Stu.

Stu

You shoot a gun here there'll be pandemonium, cops will be swarming all over the block

The Caller

Think so? Let's see. One...

The Caller
[Stu ducks]

Two. That won't help you. Three!

The Caller
[fires gun and shoots a toy robot next to the phone booth - no one notices] [deadpan alarm]

Oh Stu, look at everybody... Look at all the people screaming, Stu. Here come the cops. Sniper on the roof. Gunfire. Hit the deck.

Stu

You shoot the guy, and I'm responsible?

The Caller

It looked that way from up here.

Stu

I don't know what I did to you, but whatever it was I'm glad. Alright, I wish it had been worse, I wish you had **** died.

The Caller

Yes! Finally some honesty.

The Caller
[about Stu's wife, Kelly]

You think she didn't know she was being watched.

Stu

What?

The Caller

But beautiful women always know. That false indifference, superior air. It's just a tease. They want eyes on them. Why does she put on her make up? Do her hair? Dress so nicely? Not for her husband which she hardly ever sees, no, it's for somebody else to notice... I notice.

The Caller

And I wanted to **** her.

Stu

And I wanted to sleep with her.

The Caller

No, and I wanted to **** her. Say it. SAY IT!

Stu

And I wanted to **** her. I'm sorry.

Kelly Shepard

Whatever you did, I don't care.

Kelly Shepard
[Sobs sweetly]

Please just... come out of the booth, OK?

Stu

That's all I did. That's all I did, I'm sorry.

Stu
[to the caller]

Alright, I've done what you asked. That's it. I've had enough of this game.

The Caller

I haven't.

Stu

You said you'd let us go.

The Caller

I changed my mind.

Stu

You miserable ****! You can't do this... you can't do this to me. I took all your shit... I did everything you **** asked.

Stu
[the Caller just starts laughing again]

Alright, you lied to me. I've had enough of this game. I've **** had enough. You go **** yourself. Later.
[Hangs up]

The Caller

If only you had dealt with the man decently, this might not have been necessary.

Stu

I offered him money. I offered him my watch.

The Caller

But not your respect, which is what he really wanted. You were dismissive, just as you were to the nice pizza guy. You are guilty of inhumanity to your fellow man.
