EOGHAN<br />
(Grinning) Man, look at yourself. You're a fucking fairy, first off. Second, you're<br />
dating a queer who has fuckin' AIDS. And I don't even know what the fuck YOU<br />
are!<br />
EOGHAN pokes CHRISTINE in the chest.<br />
CHRISTINE<br />
(Still very much drunk, giggling) Last time I checked me, and my girlfriend<br />
weren't like ... Fully gay. I am a uhm. (Hiccup) KIWI for YOUR INFORMATION!<br />
Also, that's not even what AIDS looks like man! It's like ... Little brown moles.<br />
What's tha' on your face?<br />
CHRISTINE points at a mole on the side of EOGHAN'S face.<br />
EOGHAN<br />
(Quiet) You don't belong here. So, you better watch your fucking step.<br />
CHRISTINE<br />
OH, GIVE IT A REST! NOBODY CARES WHO THE FUCK I AM! ONLY YOU! CAUSE<br />
YOU'RE FUCKIN' GAY FOR ME!<br />
CHRISTINE pushes EOG HAN. EOG HAN punches CHRISTINE in the face.<br />
CHRISTINE<br />
(Holding nose, muffled) YOU BROKE MY NOSE! YOU BROKE MY NOSE!<br />
CHRISTINE kicks at EOGHAN and misses, tripping over. LISEL runs over and kicks<br />
EOGHAN in the balls. He falls to the ground.<br />
LISEL<br />
YOU HAVE SOME FUCKING AUDACITY TOUCHING MY BOYFRIEND, YOU SHITE<br />
BAG!<br />
LISEL spits on EOGHAN and helps CHRISTINE up, holds his hand and runs. They keep<br />
running until they reach the bridge, cars passing by. CHRISTINE lets go of LISEL 's<br />
hand. LISEL keeps running before looking back and seeing CHRISTINE sitting on the<br />
floor, rocking back and forth and covering their ears. LISEL jogs back to CHRISTINE<br />
and sits on the floor in front of him.<br />
(Quiet) Hey, hey, hey, are you okay?<br />
No response.<br />
LISEL<br />
