It’s about her.


TOM
Do I want to hear it?
PAUL
That's what we wanted to ask you.
MCKENZIE
It’s just, lately you’ve been better.
PAUL
You’ve been much much better.
MCKENZIE
So maybe it’s best we don’t ever bring her up again.
PAUL
Just let sleeping dogs lie.
MCKENZIE
Leave those dogs alone Tom!
TOM
You guys, look, I’m-- I appreciate what you’re saying and, thank
you, really, for putting up with me these past few months. I’ve
been crazy. But I’ve accepted the fact that she and I were just

his balcony. Finally he collapses on the bed.

INT. SUPERMARKET - DAY
Tom, in a robe and boxer shorts, buys milk, OJ, cigarettes, Jack
Daniels, and twinkies.
The CLERK eyes him rfxjmfsuspiciously.
EXT. STREET - SAME
Tom sees a COUPLE kissing on the sidewalk. He winces. He sees
ANOTHER COUPLE entwined on a bench. It’s killing him. He sees a
THIRD COUPLE walking towards him holding hands. He snaps.
TOM
Jesus Christ people! Get a room!
They look at this lunatic in his robe and quickly walk away.

INT. TOM’S BEDROOM
Alarm clock. We PAN ACROSS to see Tom is wide awake. He probably
hasn’t slept in a day or so. He has no reaction to the alarm.
