[Music blaring]

[Knock on the door]

Ian: Yeah?

[Door opens]

Mikah: Uh, hey. Mind if I sit in here for a bit?

Ian: Oh? Uh, it's fine. Go ahead. Everything okay?

Mikah: Yeah! Everything's fine. Just a bit overstimulated is all. I'm not much of a party person...

Ian: You me both...

[Door slams open]

Isaac: Oh shit, didn't realise yous were in here.

Ian: We only just got in...

Isaac: Huh. Well is there anything I can get you? Drinks? Weed? Condoms?

Ian: That won't be necessary, Isaac.

Mikah: You know each other?

Ian: Vaguely.

Isaac: [Chuckles] Yeah... Vaguely~

Ian: Isaac. Please don't do this.

Isaac: Chill. I'm only playing. I'll leave you two lovebirds to do whatever.

[Door shuts]

Mikah: Is he always like this?

Ian sighs.

[Slam]

Ezra: You really don't know when to stop, do you?

Isaac: The fuck?!

Ezra: You know what you did.

Isaac: You know, I'm really not in the mood for these mind games, Ezra.

Ezra: This isn't a fucking game, Isaac. Stay away from him.

Isaac: I thought he was just a nobody to you.

Ezra: And I thought we were over this, but clearly not.

Isaac: [Scoff] I am over this.

Ezra: Then why were you taunting him?

Isaac: How? How was I taunting him? Wow. I can't even have a civil conversation with the man you cheated on me with.

Ezra: See? This is exactly what I was on about. You blow things out of proportion and you act out. You always do this!

Isaac: Hm, funny how you say that because I thought I was quite reasonable at the time.

Ezra: You are being anything, but reasonable. Touch him and I will end you.

Isaac: Please. Your pretty little boyfriend is the least of my concerns.

Ezra: Watch your fucking mouth.

Isaac: Or what?

--

[Tap water running]

Isaac: Hey. You're not still fucking Ezra are you?

Ian: Uh, no? I'm not...

Isaac: Good.

Isaac sighs

---

For so long I've felt like asking for help makes you weak.

And a lot of the time, I do still feel that way.

[Leaves rustling]

[Multiple people shouting in the distance]

Man: I'm gonna ask you this one more time. Why the fuck were you looking at my girl?

Louise: Babe, stop-

Isaac: I wasn't.

Man: Then who were you looking at?!

Isaac: Definitely not you.

Man: You-

Louise: Seriously, stop!

Man: Why're you defendig him?

Louise: I'm not-

Man: But you are, though.

Mikah: Is this really necessary?

Isaac: [Yawns]

Man: Oh, I'm sorry, am I boring you?

Isaac: Yes.

Mikah: Can we just go, please?

[Bickering]

Sorya: [Clears throat]

Man: The fuck do you want?

Louise: Shut up! That's Sorya!

Man: Who?

Louise: You can't be serious.

Mikah: [Sigh] He's the bar manager at Mooniva, and he works here. [Gestures to the tattoo shop]

Sorya: So what's all this about, then?

Louise: [Sigh] Wouldn't you like to know...

Man: Just dealing with this street scum.

Isaac: Tell him why.

Man: Shut up, cunt.

Isaac: Make me.

Man: I'm gonna fucking kill you.

Sorya: Enough.

Louise: [Hushed] Babe, seriously. He's not worth it.

Isaac: You should listen to your girlfriend.

Man: Shut. Up.

Isaac: This wet wipe over here thinks I was making a move on his girlfriend or whatever.

Sorya: Well, were you?

Isaac: [Scoff] Of course not. Not my fauly he feels threatened by me.

Louise: I don't think-

Man: I'm not threatened by him. My girl's got standards.

Isaac: Not very high standards, apparently.

Louise: Hey! Rude, much?!

Mikah: You are not a very nice person...

Isaac: Oh, really? What gives you the impression?

Sorya: [Sigh] If you're gonna fight, can you at least go somewhere else? I don't particularly want to end up distracted at work.

Louise: They're not going to fight, we have places to be. Isn't that right?

Man: [Grumbles]

Mikah: We were just leaving anyway. There's a train we really need to catch!

Louise: Great, let's go. Babe!

Man: [Mutters] I'm coming...

Sorya: Isaac. Why am I not surprised? Having fun, were you?

Isaac: Yeah, you know me. Making new friends every day.

Sorya: With that guy? You've got shit taste.

Isaac: Figured I'd broaden my horizons, you know?

Sorya: What're you doing here anyway?

Isaac: Jheez, Sorya. Am I not allowed to go for a nice, early morning run?

Sorya: Fuck off were you going for a run.

Isaac: Y'got me there. Was picking up drugs.

Sorya: [Snort] Of course you were.

Isaac: Yeah, and then that fuck stopped me, but it's fine, because Prince Charming came to the rescue.

Sorya: Oh, so I'm not Superman anymore, then?

Isaac: Nah, you've just got promoted.

Sorya: [Laughs] Good to know.

Isaac: As lovely as this was, I've got beatings to avoid so...

Sorya: [Snort] Of course you do.

Sorya: Don't get killed!
