First Place
Speaker 1: America, home of the free and land of the enslaved,
Speaker 2: Took land from natives and didn’t even dig them graves,
Speaker 1: Sailed the ocean blue,
Speaker 2: Committed genocide,
Speaker 1 and 2: and received a holiday.
Speaker 1: Chained thousand of Africans together and put them on ships where they
were stripped of their customs and names,
Speaker 2: Split up families and generations, made the bloodline so impure family
lineage can’t be traced further than 1864.
(Speaker 1 and 2 exit)
(Speaker 3 and 4 enter)
Speaker 3: America started with immigration, now they are closing their doors,
Speaker 4: Aim their guns at people while they are on the floor,
Speaker 3 and 4: (mocking manner) Says colored people are a threat,
(irritated) *hands in shape of pistols aimed towards audience* point their
pistols at them while they wear a bulletproof vest.
Speaker 3: America is under attack by the ones who are supposed to protect,
Speaker 4: Dead bodies lying in streets:
Speaker 3 and 4: I can’t breathe!
Speaker 4: imagine a knee up on your neck.
(Speaker 1 enters stage)
Speaker 1: America was built around slavery,
(Speaker 2 enters stage with picture of Lady Liberty -- hands it to speaker 3)
Speaker 2: I mean look at Lady Liberty; Take a close look.
Speaker 3: She has chains around her feet,
Speaker 2: Used to be brown, she wasn’t always green,
Speaker 1: Came to a country and planted seeds of disease.
Speaker 4: They continue to do it; we see this virus isn’t just an Asian thing.
Speaker 1 and 2: America, home of the free and land of the enslaved,
Speaker 3: Created a system that, for people of color, seem like a maze,
Speaker 4: Build prisons,
Speaker 2: Treat people of color like animals,
Speaker 1: And put them in a cage,
Speaker 3: But it’s a problem when people protest and become enraged.
Speaker 1,2,3, and 4: I Pledge allegiance to a flag that’s not even ours.
Speaker 4: It’s only good for the whites and republicans because the democrats are in
a box.
Speaker 2: Where the whites will still thrive,
Speaker 1: Because no matter how hard we try,
Speaker 3: Reality still cuts like a knife.
Speaker 1,2,3,and 4: You're awake but not really woke.
Speaker 4: Don’t believe what you are told.
Speaker 3: This country doesn’t love you.
Speaker 2: Their hearts are cold.
Speaker 1: A country built on racism: let their hate spread like mold.
Speaker 3 and 4: America, home of the free and land of the enslaved
Speaker 2: Has a White House that black people made.
Speaker 1: They weren’t even paid.
Speaker 4: This is the
Speaker 3: U
Speaker 2: S
Speaker 1: A
Speaker 1,2,3,and 4: *raise fists in air* The United Slaves of America.
Speaker 4: It's funny because a lot of you worship trump or Biden, but God is my King
Speaker 3: Because I learned on earth some people can get away with anything.
Speaker 2: Including
Speaker 1,2,3, and 4: Storming the capitol like Vikings.
Speaker 1: I mean, really, it's frightening.
Speaker 4: Miriam Carey’s U-turn at the White house checkpoint got her
Speaker 1,2,3, and 4: *stomp in unison* struck down like lightning.
Speaker 3: We’re under the impression that equality is reality.
Speaker 2: Well, then how come I still see police brutality,
Speaker 1: (sarcastic) and Black lives seem to be a casualty?
Speaker 2: The constant duality we have for mortality.
Speaker 3: I sit back and ponder where’s our morality
Speaker 4: This image they made of our character is a fallacy.
Speaker 1,2,3,4: And as we change who we are rapidly, we’re under attack -- such a
travesty, and y’all still have the audacity to say we’re free; I mean,
really, you’re not thinking rationally.
Speaker 1: There is no price you can put on human life,
Speaker 2: So the death of the innocent will not be in vain.
Speaker 3: The families of the ones lost are still in pain
Speaker 4: Because we have all yet to realize the divide --
Speaker 1,2,3,and 4: The divide in humanity,
Speaker 1: To not cherish the thought of another human’s life.
Speaker 1,2,3, and 4: The divide in humanity,
Speaker 2: For one to judge another based on the color of their skin rather than the
morality of the character.
Speaker 1,2,3,4: The divide in humanity,
Speaker 3: To not realize that
Speaker 1,2,3, and 4: We were made in his image.
Speaker 2: So what are we fighting for right?
Speaker 1: We are fighting to be right,
Speaker 3: To be alright,
Speaker 4: To not go left,
Speaker 2: To not be left behind.
Speaker 3: We are fighting for the right to fight.
Speaker 1: We are fighting for rights.
Speaker 4: We are fighting for you all to right your wrongs.
Speaker 2: For we have to fight just to be given something we are born with:
Speaker 1,2,3,and 4: Freedom.
Speaker 3: The negro mother weeps away as she sees there has been little to no
change.
Speaker 1:That passion has turned to rage.
Speaker 4: I sit in confusion as I try to turn this page in a so-called life.
Speaker 2: Because one doesn't realize that this diary of a mad black woman is written
with petrifying words.
Speaker 3: How can I express my feelings in a way you'll understand?
Speaker 1: Because for these past years, I've felt like I've been standing under this
false pretense of equality.
Speaker 1,2,3,4: Under this ideology, I work up this apology to those who don't even
value my quality.
Speaker 4: And this curiosity plagues me to wonder:
Speaker 1,2,3,4: WHEN WILL THEY SEE US?
Speaker 1: For the ones who were woke when they spoke they were put to rest.
Speaker 2: I finally found the words to say, yet the pressure of being labeled insane lies
on my chest like a boulder to the floor.
Speaker 3: I ask and I pray for more, but this is all I was given.
Speaker 4: This dark shell I’m in feels like a prison .
Speaker 1: I'm used to people saying “it is what it is,” but isn't.
Speaker 1,2,3,4: WHY WON'T YOU LISTEN?
Speaker 4: I know you hear us.
Speaker 3: But you’re angered when we put up a fuss.
Speaker 2: We only do it because equality is not a topic you care to discuss.
Speaker 1: How do we trust the ones who look at us in disgust?
Speaker 4: I lust for the day I can truly say I am free:
Speaker 3: Free of judgment,
Speaker 2: Free of conformity,
Speaker 1: Free of lies,
Speaker 1,2,3,4: Free of the cries of the enslaved.
Speaker 3: I admit Martin Luther King had a dream,
Speaker 4: But dreams are for those who sleep.
Speaker 1: When Malcolm said, “by any means,”
Speaker 2: I don't think he wanted to see our people dying on digital screens.
Speaker 3: Implanted drugs in our communities, now my people are fiends.
Speaker 4: We have been taught to believe that these things are in our genes.
Speaker 1: And when she told her son to work machines,
Speaker 3: She did not mean guns.
Speaker 2: But he got it the best way he knew how because he needed the funds.
Speaker 4: Nicotine in his neighborhood fills his lungs, as he raises*all speakers raise
hands in the shape of a gun toward the audience* his pistol to one of his
own.
Speaker 1,2,3,4: Bang wit em *all stomp in unison*
Speaker 1: Another black life gone.
Speaker 1,2,3,4: Bang wit em *all stomp in unison*
Speaker 3: A mother lost a son.
Speaker 1,2,3,4: Bang wit em *all stomp in unison*
Speaker 2: A brother wants revenge.
Speaker 1,2,3,4: Bang wit em *all stomp in unison*
Speaker 4: He gathers all his friends.
Speaker 1,2,3,4: Bang wit em *all stomp in unison*
Speaker 1: He does a driveby on that block.
Speaker 1,2,3,4: Bang wit em *all stomp in unison*
Speaker 3: 10 more lives were lost.
Speaker 1,2,3,4: Bang wit em *all stomp in unison*
Speaker 2: He can't outrun the law.
Speaker 1,2,3,4: Bang wit em *all stomp in unison*
Speaker 4: Another black man In jail.
Speaker 1,2,3,4: Bang wit em *all stomp in unison*
Speaker 1: The black families fail.
Speaker 1,2,3,4: Bang wit em *all stomp in unison*
your typical ghetto: AKA Hell.
Speaker 2: And it’s crazy cause although we didn’t walk that trail of tears,
Speaker 3: Our community has cried everyday for the last 400 and some years.
Speaker 4: And all people can say is,
Speaker 1,2,3,4: (mocking voice) “Well maybe if he ain’t run the block…”
Speaker 1: Or
Speaker 1,2,3,4:(mocking voice) “Maybe if he ain’t up the glock…”
Speaker 4: Or
Speaker 1,2,3,4: “Maybe if he ain’t blow his top…”
Speaker 2: Or
Speaker 1,2,3,4: Maybe if YOU ALL JUST STOP
Speaker 3: And admit that it is really you to blame,
Speaker 1: They’ll just counter and say sum’n lame like,
Speaker 1,2,3,4: (mocking voice) “Well I didn’t own slaves.”
Speaker 3: Or
Speaker 1,2,3,4 : (mocking voice) “Slavery was over a hundred years ago; get over it,”
Speaker 2: Not realizing when you salt a wound it doesn’t heal.
Speaker 4: So, now my community is left to battle with this ordeal,
Speaker 1: Struggle:
Speaker 3: Hate,
Speaker 2: Or kill.
Speaker 4: I say let’s blame faith,
Speaker 1,2,3 ,4: The faith in a country to believe they meant what they said when they stated everyone is born equally and free *raises fist in the air*
Second Place
Maricruz: Main Character
Valentina: Alejandro’s fiance, Super Model
Alejandro Luis de la Cruz: CEO, Love interest of Maricruz
Fernando: Alejandro’s twin brother (Valentina’s side piece), Works in the Cartel
Narrator: Ominous, Machiste sounding, (like the voice from Jane the Virgin)
Narrator: Maricruz was born into a very poor family who all died by the time she turned 18. She barely got by, scraping every little crumb she could get. But today will be the day that changes her whole life forever.
**Maricruz walks into a building -- lost -- and accidentally lands the CEO’s office**
Maricruz: Disculpe, umm where is the CEO’s officina? I have an interview for a job position today.
ALC: Aye, well you’ve come **slowly turns around and looks Maricruz up and down** to the right place. Please have a seat.
Maricruz: Gracias, Senor de la Cruz.
ALC: Please, my name is Alejandro Luis de la Cruz.
Maricruz: Ah okay, Señor Alejandro Luis de la Cruz, I really need this job. I am living on the streets taking hand --
ALC: Enough, I’ve heard enough… You got the job. You’ll start as a maid next week.
Maricruz: Aye, Gracias Gracias Señor Alejandro Luis de la Cruz.
**Spin across frame singing telenovela song quickly as transition**
Narrator: Maricruz and Alejandro Luis de la Cruz started their flirtation. As months passed by, stolen glances turned into close dancing at the club, to nights alone at the apartment he bought her.
Chismosa Maid 1: Aye, have you heard the chisme that's passing through the halls?
Chismosa Maid 2: Huh, no? Dime -- tell me!
Chismosa Maid 1: Bueno you didn’t hear it from me, but the CEO and that maid who's only been working here for only 6 months, Maricruz. Well, apparently they’re secretly dating.
Chismosa Maid 2: **Gasps in Spanish** isn't the CEO engaged to that beautiful supermodel, Valentina Ochoa?
Chismosa Maid 1: Aye that poor woman her fiance is cheating on her do you think she knows?
**Valentina has been listening this whole time and is filled with rage**
Valentina: She does now!
**Valentina storms into the CEO’s Office**
Valentina: ALEX! What is that I hear that you’re cheating on me with one of your employees?! Have you forgotten that you are engaged to me?!
ALC: Mi amor -- where did you hear this outrageous story?
Valentina: Don’t “mi amor” me! And I heard it from these two old chismosas. It's true, isn't it? You're cheating on me with this Maricruz girl. I should have known you have been acting differently lately. Well, I hope you and this perra die in hell!
ALC: Valentina wait! Look, I'll fire her, and make sure I never see her again. I promise, mi vida, I want to marry you.
**Spin across frame singing “Caso Cerrado” as a transition**
**Valentina is calling someone from the cartel on the phone**
Valentina: Hello, long time since we last spoke. Look, let's cut to the chase: you owe me a favor. My idiot fiance has a side piece. I need you to make sure that she's taken out for good because I know my idiot fiance won't actually get rid of her, and if you don't, I will expose your entire operation to the police!
**Alejandro Luis de la Cruz was eavesdropping on Valentina's conversation the whole time**
ACL: Aye, no I have to get Maricruz far away from here.
**Spin across frame singing telenovela song quickly as transition**
Maricruz: Hola mi corazón, why did you want to see me in your office so urgently?
ACL: Look Mari, there’s is something I need to tell you I --
Maricruz: Oh, I have something I also need to tell you. I’m pregnant.
ACL: I -- I can’t do this.
Maricruz: Can’t do what, mi vida?
ACL: Mari, we have to leave this place. We need to run off to America to raise our unborn child. It will be better there.
Maricruz: What are you crazy?! We can’t just leave Mexico for America on such short notice!
ACL: I have a job opportunity there. Mari, I promise to you I will protect you and this child with my life.
Narrator: Maricruz and Alejandro Luis de la Cruz run off and check into some random hotel trying to go across the border to escape his crazy ex fiance.
ALC: Okay Mari, whatever you do, don’t leave this room under any circumstances. I am gonna go check what time we need to leave tomorrow so we can cross the border.
**ALC leaves but then moments later Fernando walks in**
Maricruz: Back so soon, mi amor?
Fernando: Well, of course! Why would I ever want to be away from you for any longer, mi amor?
Maricruz: What has gotten into you? Why are you being so lovey-dovey all of a sudden?
Fernando: Well, why would I call you by your name? You’re the mother of my child, mi corazon -- we should go out to eat. It is our last night in Mexico.
Maricruz: You said not to leave this room under any circumstances?
Fernando: Well, uh, that was -- uh, because I was out of the room. It’s not safe on your own, mi vida.
Maricruz: Okay, well then before we go, you keep avoiding saying my name, so what is my name?
Fernando: Uh, I don’t see how that is important right now -- let's just go.
Maricruz: NO! What is my name?!
Fernando: Well, uh, your name is -- uh -- Rubi.
Maricruz: That isn’t my name! Quien eres?! Who are you and where is my Alejandro Luis de la Cruz?
Fernando: **Puts a gun to Mari’s head** ¡Te vas a venir conmigo! You're coming with me!
ALC returns
ALC: GET AWAY FROM HER!
Fernando: You’re already too late brother. She has been ordered to be killed by the cartel.
ALC: Ah, so now my twin brother has joined the scum of this country -- how fitting.
Fernando: Stay away or I’ll shoot!
ALC: I don’t think that’s what's going to happen **ALC pulls out a gun and aims for his twin brother and kills him**
ALC: Mari, estas bien? Did he hurt you?
Maricruz: No, I am alright. Just who the hell was he?
ALC: That was my twin brother Fernando. I just don’t understand how he found us
**Valentina walks in very dramatically with a drink in her hand**
Valentina: Aww, why’d you have to go and kill my lover? Well, it’s for the best; he wasn’t the greatest hitman.
Maricruz: Who the hell is she?!
ALC: Uh, Mari, meet my ex fiance.
Valentina: Yeah, the one you cheated on -- con esta perra.
Maricruz: Why didn’t you tell me -- in the 6 months that we have been together -- to tell me you had a novia. For Christ’s sake, I’m carrying your child!
Valentina: YOU’RE PREGNANT?!
**Valentina gets angry and fills with rage and starts strangling Mari and attacking Mari**
Valentina: Desgraciada!!! You ruined my life?! You took my two lovers away!
ALC: That’s enough, Valentina!
**ALC tries to pull Valentina away**
Valentina: GET OFF OF ME ALEX! You ruined everything! I had everything before you were dumb enough to fall for this gold digger. She is nowhere near as beautiful as me. Alex, mi amor, we can go back to the way things were, put all of this madness behind us and get married and be the most powerful couple in Mexico. All you have to do is kill your perra girlfriend.
**Valentina hands ALC a gun**
Maricruz: Alejandro Luis de la Cruz -- please don’t do this! I love you! Please just let me run away. I'll run away to America alone and raise this child.
Valentina: KILL HER ALREADY, ALEX!
ACL: Mari, I have to do this. I need to be with the one I truly love, which means I need to kill … **Points gun at Valentina** Valentina.
Valentina: Alex, are you insane? What are you doing? We are supposed to get married and be the most powerful couple in Mexico...
ACL: You never loved me, Valentina; you only wanted power and money. That's why you cheated on me with my twin brother to get ties with the cartel.
Valentina: How do you know all this?!
ACL: I know everything, Valentina, and I am done! You aren’t ruining what I have with the person I actually love. Maricruz, look away.
**ALC shoots Valentina and she slowly collapses**
Valentina: Imbecile **Valentina says weakly and then dies**
Maricruz: I can’t believe it almost took us losing our lives for you to admit that you love me!
ACL: Maricruz, yo siempre te amo.
**Maricruz gasps in Spanish**
Maricruz: I’ve always loved you, too.
**Spin across frame singing telenovela song quickly as transition**
Narrator: Maricruz and Alejandro Luis de la Cruz finally made it to America safe and away from the Cartel and the hot sauce of a woman. In America, they proceed to try and live the American dream while being racially profiled, and sadly their baby did not make it, and that is why telenovelas are hell.

*Transition to Doug getting ready for his interview in the bathroom at The Last Chance Foundation and he then walks through the door into his bosses office*
Doug: Good morning.
Interviewer: Good morning, sir, please take a seat.
Doug: Ok thank you very much.
Interviewer: So, just so you know, you are applying to be a child carer. You understand that, right?
Doug: Uhhh, yeah, sure. Let's go with that.
Interviewer: Ok, well, here at The Last Chance Foundation, we like to see what the workers had as a childhood to better understand them and to assign them to a broken and traumatized child in a more accurate manner, so with that said, how was your mother?
Doug: Uhhh, *scratches head awkwardly* ooo, haha.
*Transition to him at the store with his mom*
Doug as a kid: MOM! MOM! MOM! Can we PLEASE get a Super Soaker Blaster! PLEASEEEEE! All of my friends have it!?!?
Doug's mom Jackie: *Takes long pull off of cigarette and blows it into Doug’s face*
*In scratchy cigarette voice* No of course not! You're lucky that I feed you.
Doug: Well, then can I get this small candy at least? I'm so hungry.
Jackie: How big are ya pockets?
Doug: *Shows his decently big pockets*
Jackie: 'Ight fine put ‘em in there an RUN!
Doug: Yes, mommy.
*Transition back to interview*
Interviewer: Wow…WOW!
Doug: Too dark? I can answer some other questions if you want.
Interviewer: HAHA! no, you're perfect!
Doug: How am I perfect?
Interviewer: The Last Chance Foundation profits off of kids dying. Why wouldn't you be perfect: terrible childhood and terrible parents?! You're a degenerate like the rest of us; welcome to the team.*shakes hands and gaze at camera*
INTRO
“I LOVE you!”, “I am SOO proud of you!”, “You TRULY amaze me!” Are a few encouraging words that Doug's mom never told him. Doug grew up with a very rough childhood and got used to it, so now as an adult, he's a flat-out jerk. That is until he meets a dying boy:)
The Man and the Dying Child: an original
*transition to his last day on the job, everyone is high fiving him as he walks into the hospital room *
Employee: *clapping excitingly*
Doug: Thank you, thank you, remember, even though this is the last day of a very legendary career, I still hate all of you. *smirks*
Employee:*Slowly stops clapping and looks sad*
Director: Alright, Doug, get on in there.
Doug: Alrighttt, give me the deets.
Director: Ok, he's named Brian, and he's dying, and that's all we care about, you ready?
Doug: Hate him already, let's get to it.
Director: Okay, aaannndddd: ACTION!
Doug to Brian: Hey Brian, I’m Doug, how you doing, buddy?
Brian: Uh you know... Dying but overall, great.
Doug: Ooo, fun man! Ok, well, I'm here to give you some confidence or whatever.
Brian: Uh, ok, well -- go ahead, I guess?
Doug: Ok here I go: look Brian, you are one of the strongest kids I've ever met. You are smart, loving, funny, and just so great overall. I love you man, and that's why I want you to keep fighting. I can't have you dying on me anytime soon!
*Brian starts tearing up on Doug’s shoulder*
Director: Alright, CUTT!
*Doug shoves Brian off of him*
Doug: Finally! Thank God!
*Pulls out a cigarette*
Does anybody have a light?!
*Brian walks over to Doug*
Brian: Wait, Mr. Doug man, did you lie to me??
Doug: Aww, why, of course I did!
Brian: W-Why would you do such a thing?!
Doug: Because something needs to pay the bills… and these cigarettes... and I'm not going to waste my time on some kid I don't know or care about.
Brian: WAIT, WAIT, WAIT, what if I spend the day with you? Maybe then you'll care about me.
Doug: I don't know man, what do I get out of this?
Brian: My parents will pay for everything -- They're rich...and they don't really care about me. I stole money from them too, I can pay you with that!
Doug: Lemme just double check though, I don't want to go back to prison.
Brian: Fine, but remember, they're evil!
Doug: Haha! sure, okay, kid.
*Goes to Brian's parents’ *
Stewart(dad): And then I said, I wanted the black Porsche NOT the white one! *Rich person laugh*
Doug: Hello, my name is Doug, and I want to take your kid with me for the day.
Martha(mom): You cannot! Why would you ask for such a thing and not even pay us!?
Doug: OO, darn -- can't believe I forgot to offer money! Ok, well, you all have a nice day!
*transition back to Brian*
Brian: Well, what did they say?
Doug: They said no, but it's a yes if you can shut up and keep a secret, you in?
Brian: Ok! I'm in, where are we going?
Doug: The store. This was my last cigarette -- let’s go.
*Throws cigarette on ground and crushes it with his foot *
*Transition to Doug and Brian at the store*
Brian: Wow, so this is what the store is like!
Doug: What, you've never been to the store before?
Brian: Nope, I've always been too busy.
Doug: With what?
Brian: Oh you know, dying and stuff, the usual.
Doug: Oh yea, I forgot.
Brian: *GASPS* Is this candy ?! I've never had this stuff before; I've only seen it in commercials.
Doug: Dude, that like, sucks for you. You want some?
Brian: Wait -- you're sure?
Doug: Yea sure, wait, how big are ya pockets? That's the most important thing to learn about shopping.
Brian: Uhh, they’re this big, is this big enough?
Doug: Yea sure, just stick these two packs of cigarettes in there, and you can get them.
Brian: Wait isn't that stealing? Don't you have to pay for these?
Doug: It's not stealing, it's taking without consent, now let's go!
Brian: Go where?
Doug: To the car!
*Doug and Brian run to the car*
Brian: So Doug, do you like me yet?
Doug: HA! No now shut ya trap.
Brian: Oh, ok, hehe, well -- where are we going now?
Doug: Idk this is one of your last days... What do you want to do? When do you die again? I have a strict rule: no dying in the car.
Brian: Can we go bowling? My parents once went and forgot me, and I've been curious about what it's like.
Doug: Yea sure kid, but just so you know, I can only afford like a fifth of a frame. Also: you know your parents suck, right? Because they sound like mother...Eww.
Brian: Yea, I know. That's why I like you, because you at least care about me a tiny bit. They didn't even try to fake it.
Doug: Haha, yea, that sucks. Oh, look -- we’re here (awkwardly)
*Doug and Brian walk inside*
Brian: Ok, so how do I do this?
Doug: Ight, so you grab the ball, and roll it, aiming for those pins over there.
*Doug bowls a perfect strike*
Brian: WOW! look at that! You made a strike!
Doug: Yea, my mom took me a few times to distract me when I was younger. Did your parents ever do anything with you?
Brian: Yea, no, they were always too busy for this stuff. They're always working. I forget what they do. I think it's called Placebos?
Doug: Oh, Placebos, cool. Surprisingly, I actually considered selling that when I was looking for work.
Brian: What even is a “placebo”?
Doug: Don't worry about it; anyways, let’s see how you bowl, kid.
Brian: *bowls right into the gutter* Wow, look at what I did! Did I do it right?
Doug: Yea no, remember: you have to HIT the pins.
Brian: Oh, yea, sorry.
Doug: Ok, kid, time to take you back to the hospital because it's getting late, and leaving the hospital with a stranger you barely know without the consent of your parents PROBABLY isn't legal.
*Doug and Brian walk to the car*
Brian: Yea, you're right, I had a fun day though! So, thank you for that.
Doug: You know what's funny, though, kid; I learned something from you today, too -- things you don't usually learn about -- like how to actually pay attention to people and not judge them and that stealing from stores is actually NOT normal?!... ew, I sound so nice, gross.
Brian : I'm glad I hung out with you. You taught me how to steal properly, which will help my finances, AND you took me bowling. I'm practically a man now!
Doug: Haha, yea, sure kid. Now, go inside, and try not to die.
Brian: Wait, what about your payment??
Doug: Took it while you were bowling.
Brian: WOW cool, you'll have to teach me that.
Doug: That's something you learn with time and age, also, if you see your parents, you were never with me. Tell them you were dying downstairs or something, ok?
Brian: Oh, I do that all the time! Can do, Mr. Doug- Man.
Doug: Hey kid, just call me Doug.
