DM: Well here we are. Here we’ve come. To this place. The Jewel place. Isn’t this what you wanted?
NL: It isn’t. Not at all. And you know that.
DM: What? You wanted what?
NL: Dominick’s. I told you. About that. Coupons, and all.
DM: You should have said something. That’s what should have happened.
NL: We’re here now, aren’t we? I’ve had my issues. We’re here. Let’s do what the thing is. Did you bring it?
DM: The thing? You bastard.
NL: Did you bring it?
DM: The list is right here. It’s right here, you hear me? First. First is milk. Over there.
NL: In the back?
DM: That’s where they put it. That’s what they do to you, these men. So called.
NL: So called, indeed.
DM: Always reaching, never grabbing. These men. These men and their milk.
NL: Skim? I like skim. 2% is fine, too. I’ve always liked 2%. That would be what I always liked.
DM: What you want. That’s what we’ll get. I need bananas.
NL: They go bad, you know. The bananas. A day, maybe two. Out on the table, and then you’ve got black ones. Bananas, I mean.
DM: They’re fine. Black on the outside, fine on the inside. That’s what happens. Or then you make bread.
NL: What, banana bread?
DM: Indeed.
NL: What else is on it?
DM: Don’t you know? Didn’t you write it?
NL: The list? You’ve got it. I wrote it, but you’ve got it.
DM: We need bread. White, I think. It’s over here.
NL: White, if you don’t want to grow. If you don’t want your vitamins, your grains. That’s what white is.
DM: I like white. I ate it. As a child. And I still like it. Peanut butter, jelly, white. That’s what it’s for.
NL: You’re not a man. White. Honestly.
DM: Don’t tell me what a man is. A man is… A man is what he wants himself to be. Morality? Love? Grains? Wheat? These are for whoever wants them. Not this man. If you want something, be that thing. I want white.
NL: How can you say that? How can you do that? Wheat is strength, is vitality, is 30 cents off with this coupon I brought. I’ll step over you to get it. You are the bastard. White. Wheat, is the thing. Wheat.
DM: Never mind, then. Both.
NL: The list?
DM: Is complete. Is what it is. Grab some chips?
NL: Doritos?
DM: Agreed. More flavor in them. Did you notice that? Right there on the bag, there’s a note that says that.
NL: I saw.
DM: I guess you did. I’ll go through the line. Give me them. The coupons.
NL: The car. I’ll pull it around. Grab me an US Weekly? Saw Lohan on there.
DM: I will. You bastard.
