xi. half way to hell with the worms of the earth - [ VOICE ]

[There's a clicking sound; it sounds as if someone is rotating something quickly, perhaps a bit too quickly. Then, there's a snap, sudden, precise.]

I wonder; I wonder when you'll stop lying to yourselves. I wonder when you'll stop being TWO-FACED.

Does age matter? We'll see how much it does. Keep telling them it'll be all right - it's the only thing you have left, right?

But first, a story. I'll let Harvey tell this one; he's so good at the dramatics.

[The bitterness fades; on the other side, there's the distinct sound of choking.]

It's fair; it's the only thing that's fair - get on with it Harvey. Get on with it and quit wasting my fucking time - she had the same chance - oh yes, fifty-fifty. Dear Rachel had the same chance and her friends chose Harvey over her. And why not? The White Knight is so much more important than that woman, isn't he? Too bad the White Knight's gone black.

I never liked the Ying-Yang system. Not enough of one side, too balanced -

She had the same chance you all have. Fifty-fifty. That's right, Harvey. You've finally got it! Now, what do you say to the pretty people out there?

[There's a distinct click; anyone that knows a gun will find the noise pretty familiar. It sounds like a hammer being pulled back.]

When you've lost everything, then, then, you can tell them you're sorry.
