DAVID: The last time I was on a beach was 1982 ... (goes silent and loses himself in his thoughts)<br />
ELLIOT: What the fuck has been wrong with beaches the last thirty three years?<br />
DAVID: Nothing. I just... I've been busy, I guess.<br />
ELLIOT: I don't think I could handle a month without the beach, let alone thirty three years. I need<br />
the sea air to blow away all the cobwebs.<br />
DAVID: Maybe that's why you can't sleep, when was the last time you went to the beach?<br />
ELLIOT: It's not that. I was there yesterday and every other day this week. Me and my friend<br />
made a deal that we would go to the beach everyday this summer.<br />
DAVID: What?<br />
ELLIOT: We went to the beach everyday this summer. We decided during our leaving cert that<br />
once it was finished we'd go the beach every single fucking day. No matter what the weather.<br />
DAVID: But- that's what we did. We made a promise, we said we'd go to the beach every single<br />
day ...<br />
ELLIOT: What?<br />
DAVID: My friend and I. We said we'd go to the beach everyday.<br />
ELLIOT: And did you?<br />
