Hey Donny, watch your eyes, man.
Yo, Ben. You coming
to lunch or what?
- No, I got to take my kid to the
doctor. - Okay. See you later.
Hey, he's over here!
Stupid son of a b*tch!
What are you standing there for?
You hear me you crazy bastard?
Come over here and help us!
- What's the matter with you? - Leave
him alone! Let's take care of Ben!
Yeah, let's take care of Ben.
Take his visor off.
Give me a hand here.
You realize Ben nearly
died because of you?
A man goes up in flames and you
stand there like a f*ggot.
I'm not a f*ggot.
- What?
- I'm not a f*ggot.
It just covered.
It covered him up.
He wasn't evil
but it covered him up.
What are you talking about?
I covered Ben!
No. The cover of flame.
The cover of the flame.
You know you're crazy.
I always said you were crazy.
You stay away from me.
You think I was afraid?
You think I'm crazy?
- What are you talking about?
You're a sicko.
Chief Daily, Line 91.
Chief Daily, pick up 91.
Hey, Donny.
Donny, wait a minute.
Hey, let's go have a beer, man.
No thanks, uh, I got to get home.
Oh well, so do I. Let's go
have a beer anyway. Come on.
- I can't. My mother's sick.
- Okay. But wait a minute, now listen.
I don't want you to go home
thinking that was your fault, man,
because I mean things can happen and a guy
can freeze in a situation like that, you know.
- Hey, that's right.
- Yeah.
That's right.
He's the one that's sick.
- He's the f*ggot, not me. - Yeah,
you're probably right about that.
You know that's the
way those people are.
- They call you names and they're the crazy ones.
- He's a lightweight. Don't worry about it.
But that's the way it happened.
You're right, Bobby.
- Hey, I froze. I couldn't do anything.
- Hey, you know, speaking of freezing,
I'm gonna go find a nice warm barstool.
Why don't you come along, huh?
Nah, I can't.
Okay. Alright.
I'll see you tomorrow. Okay?
Okay. I'll see you tomorrow.
(That's right. Go home. Go home
like a good boy. Mother's waiting.)
Mother, I'm home.
I'll have your tea
ready in a minute.
(No, mother, don't.)
I made you camomile tea since you've
been trouble sleeping lately.
There. It's nice and hot.
Oh You're already asleep.
Don't you want your tea?
I made your tea.
Mother?
Mother, are you all right?
Mother?
No.
Wake up.
Mother wake up!
Please wake up.
Please wake up, Mother!
What am I going to do now?
It's not true.
It's not...
She's gonna wake up.
She's just asleep.
Last asleep.
She's gonna wake up soon.
No! Come on!
Wake up!
Now stop it!
I made your tea!
Drink your tea!
(She was evil. Evil.)
(Now you're free. You're not afraid.
You don't have to be afraid.)
(You're not alone. We're here.)
(We're here to help you.)
(You're free now. You're free.)
(You can do anything you want to.)
Free?
(We'll help you. Don't worry.

You will?
(You can do anything
you want to do.)
(Now you're free.)
Can I play my music loud?
(giggles)
(loud playing "Late
Night Surrender")
(music continuous)
Donald! Don't you dare!
(music continuous)
(She's still dead.)
(She was evil.)
(She must be purified.)
(She taught you to use the flame, she wants
you to purify her for everlasting life.)
(She wants the flame.)
(It's your turn.)
(It's your turn. You can do it.)
(You're the master
of the flame now.)
(You'll get her. Now.)
(It's up to you. You're the master.)
(That's right.)
Donald, come here.
- No, Mother.
- You're a bad boy.
- You're evil and you must be punished.
- No, Mother, please don't.
I promise I'll be good.
Come here I said.
No Mother, please, no!
Your father let you do things
like that but he's gone now.
I'll burn the evil out of you.
Hello?
Hey, Donny. How ya doing, man?
It's Bobby.
Okay.
You all right?
Why shouldn't I be all right?
Well, you know I thought you might
still be a little upset about Ben.
- Ben?
- Yeah.
Ben at work.
You know, the fire and everything.
Oh yeah.
Yeah, no, I'm all right.
Good.
Hey listen, man, I thought you might want to
meet me for a cup of coffee before work.
Why?
What do you mean "why"? I thought you
might want to talk or something.
Oh.
That's nice of you but, uh,
I'm not going in today.
I have a
couple of things I
have to take care of.
Will you tell'em I won't be in?
Yeah, sure I'll tell them.
Okay. Well, look,
I'll see you tomorrow then, huh?
Goodbye.
(You'll get all of them now.)
(That's right. It's up to you.
You're the master.)
We're closed.
Could I just get something simple?
Something that's already arranged.
Something that wouldn't
be too much trouble.
I'm sorry, we're closed.
I need a present for my mother.
She's sick.
Just something nice.
It doesn't have to
be too much trouble.

- Yeah, she's sick, you know.
She loves flowers.
Just something simple. Please.
Okay, something simple.
I think I've got just what you want.
Oh, that's beautiful.
I'm sure mother will love that.
Well, I guess that will do it.
That's $4.50 please.

I hope your mother feels better.
