#dramatic monologues

Another dramatic Starkid monologue that I've never seen typed up for if anyone needs a dramatic monologue :)

LEX: Well, let me tell you something I know! I’ve been working at Toy Zone since I was sixteen. I know what kids are like. When that Wiggly campaign came out, you know how many kids I got askin’ about it? None! Think about that line you stood in this morning, did you see a single kid there? It’s Thanksgiving break.

The thing about Wiggly that nobody’s talkin’ about is, kids don’t want that piece of shit! They’re all into Fortnite, dude! I mean, my sister Hannah couldn’t get further away from that thing. Yeah, me and Ethan wanted a doll- to sell! Whatever spell that doll casts, it doesn’t work on kids. And- and I think I know why.

Uh, Mr. Houston, I know your wife died, and you’re trying real hard to make up for it. But that’s something you want, not your son. You think Wiggly can fix this hole, but he can’t, it’s a trick. That’s how he works, he promises to fix all of the holes but he doesn’t. And that's why it works on adults.

Because you guys have more holes, you need more things and you need it harder. You gotta worry about your loveless marriage, or the kids that are gonna hate you, or your endless mortgage. I mean, you’re like forty, you probably think your life is over! I don’t, I’m gonna be an actress!

Do you get what I’m sayin’, Mr. Houston? Wiggly is a fucking lie, and I think you know it. But I think you’re scared, because if he’s not the answer, then what is?

I saw people die at the hands of those we were told were enemies. I saw them die at our hands too. I watched good people, people I thought of as family, killed without mercy. I watched the life leave their eyes and felt a little of mine go with it. That’s not something you come back from, not the same at least.
