Scene 4

Continuing close-ups throughout this scene, this time of the trailer's living room: piles of books; a shrine; garbage bags over windows; a pair of sunglasses with the word "Crank" written on them; a television. Everyone is waiting for Jack to come back.

Everett: It doesn't matter... He's going ??, so who cares if it's two minutes or fifteen minutes.

Dot: Go for it. There's like a pink drawing in there–
Everett: I'm seeing your crazy demons again.
Dot: They're always the same.

Jack: Like my hair? It's red. Looks better when I do it, but I haven't had time lately so I didn't.

Jack: I'm not dealing with that.
Odin: Anyways, back to your Cavalier– what are you doing, uh, with it if you're, uh, busting to the slammer?
