– I’ve seen you, man! Book slave17 there for, like, five years now. Jesus! Is it five years?

– It might be the hair.

– What might?

– It changes a lot. The color. That’s why you might not recognize18 me. It’s called Blue Ruin19, the color.

– Right. Yeah.

– Snappy20 name, huh?

– I like it.

– Yeah. Anyway, this company makes a whole line of colors with equally snappy names. Red… Red Menace21, Yellow Fever22, Green Revolution. That’d be a job, coming up23 with those names.

– You think there could possibly be a job like that? I mean, how many hair colors could there be? Fifty, maybe.

– Someone’s got that job. Agent Orange! I came up with that one. I apply my personality24 in a paste25.

– Although it hardly32 fits33. I’m a vindictive34 little bitch, truth be told.

– Gee, I—I wouldn’t think that about you.

– Why wouldn’t you think that about me?

– I don’t know. I just… I don’t know. I just, uh… You seem nice, so…

– Oh, now I’m nice? Oh, God. Don’t you know any other adjectives35? I don’t need «nice». I don’t need myself to be it, and I don’t need anybody else to be it at me.

– Okay.

– Joel? It’s Joel, right?

– Yes.

– I’m sorry I yelled36 at you. I’m a little out of sorts37 today. My embarrassing38 admission39 is, I really like that you’re nice right now. I mean, I can’t tell from one moment to the next what I’m gonna like, but right now… I’m glad you are.

– I have so much stuff40 that, uh, I probably should, uh…

– Oh! I’m sorry. Okay.

– I—I’m writing, and… No, no. I just…

– Sure. No. That’s okay.

– I just have… You know, this is… Okay.

– Ohh! Hey! Take care, then.
