...Yeah... the Trickster.... I work alone.... alone...
Piper? ... Piper? ... why am I alone? Where's Piper? He's supposed to be here, he's always there... always... could always rely on you... now you're gone...
...Piper? ... oh god, Piper, he's dead! ... he's dead... they killed him... he was hardly more than a kid... oh god... oh god.... it was a fucking feeding frenzy.. like sharks, like piranhas... if we'd've done anything, they'd've turned on us and we'd be dead too... shot through the head, you and me... Piper? ... sorry..

...i think he's dead... Piper? Oh god, Piper... wake up... wake up... can't ... can't wake up...
Hart? Hartley? Aincha getting tired of dragging me around? ... wait, something's wrong here... Shouldn't I be dragging you around? Dragging... stop dragging my Hart around.. ha! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! ...that was funny... I keel mahself... ow... hurts so much... sun's so bright.. Blinded by the light! ... s'really 'revved up like a deuce?' All these years I thought it was 'wrapped up like a douche.' ... could be worse, though, Cold thought it was 'wrecked up like a doof.' Yeah what a doof he was... wrecked up... wrecked up everything, didn't he... broke his own rules... no wonder you left... bright boy... so bright....
... so bright... s'burning... Hart? Y'need a hand there, Hart? ha! I keel mahself... wherever you go, Hart, a little piece of me will go with you... ha!! oh man.. hurts to laugh... hurts.... wish I could wake up... Hart? Piper? Hartley? Where'd you go?
....You went away... that should make me feel better.... I don't know how I'm going to get through...
...could somebody please turn off that damned music?! ...sounds like... yeah, that's it... that movie when I was a kid.. about the rabbits... the 'rents thought it was a cute lil' movie about bunnies.. y'know, like Disney? ... boy were they surprised.... s'from that movie, yeah... Simon and Garfunkel... or something... You'd know it, right Hartley? Right? Piper? You know it, right? You're playing it, that's your flute, right? Right? ... Piper? ..if you're gone, why am I still here? Did you wake up?
..Can't wake up... can't wake up... Hartley... he's dead... Hart... dead... Hart... dead heart... my heart is dead... Piper? PIPER!! NO!!!!!!!! ...not him... not now... not now... not ever.... oh god, Piper, he's dead... oh god.... Hart? You okay, buddy? C'mon man, I'm worried about you... Fuck, man, why didn't you tell me Ivy's shit was still in your system?! ... yeah yeah, okay, mayyyy-be you have a point... still... I may be straight but I'm not heartless... I'm not Hart-less.. ha! I keel mahself! ... c'mere man... c'mere... can't keep going on like this... can't keep resisting... might as well roll with it...
...blinded by the light... another roller in the night... ha! I keel mahself... Piper? Piper? When was the last time you smiled? ...Piper? Hartley? ...
...how do you do it, Hart? How do you keep going? You never smile anymore...
...neither do I...
...Piper? Where the hell have you gone now? Probably off playing with your damned buzzards again... and your bugs... ...no, rats were your thing... why'd I think..? ..'cause I can hear your damned flute, that must be why... I can hear you but I can't see you... too bright... you went into the light... always knew you would... you were just a mixed-up kid.. you weren't bad ... idiot parents didn't deserve a kid like you... s'no wonder you went... Piper? ....if you're gone, why am I still here? ...hey, Piper, you forgot your bugs and birds! ... no rats... too hot for rats.... not enough...
...food.... oh god... oh god... Piper... he's dead.... not him... not now...
......Piper? You okay, buddy? Wake up... wake up, Piper... he's dead... you can't be dead... Piper? You're not dead... 'cause I saved your life... You saw that, right, Piper? Right? I saved your life, right? Twice! Twice in one day! In the same hour, even! You saw that, right? An' I wouldn't do that for just anyone, either! Nuh-uh! 'Cause I'm the Trickster, right? Don't need no one, don't care about anyone. 'Cause you always hurt the ones you... the ones you.... always get hurt... always lose the ones you... you....
...you know that, though, right Hart? ...'cause you've been there... you've lost them too.... everyone you ever... That's why you came back to the Rogues, right Hart? That's what you said.... You sure can't lie, Hart... You're a shitty liar... Not like me... I can lie so well, I can even fool myself....
...why do you do it, Hart? Why do you keep caring? You keep getting hurt and yet you keep caring... I don't know how you do it... it hurts so much... it hurts, Piper... it hurts when you're gone... Hartley? I saved you.. where've you gone?
...I can hear you... but I can't see you... Hartley? Piper? ...why can't I see you? ...where are you? You get us lost again, Hart? What're you looking for? Is that why you dragged us out into the desert? You looking for what you lost? Your family? Your... your ...husband? You looking for your smile, Hart? I got it right here... made you laugh... got you with the 'hobosexual' crack... made you laugh... made you smile... got you with the puppets too... god, I haven't done shit like that in years.... why haven't I? One thing about all this crap, Piper, it's like it woke me up inside... made the Trickster wake up....
....wake up, Piper... wake me up... i can't wake up... it's me, isn't it? Piper? ...it's me... you can't be dead 'cause I saved your life... it's me, isn't it... oh god, Piper... call them off... I can hear your damned flute, now call them off!!! ...call off the damned birds! ... call off the bugs... Piper.... dammit, Piper, where are you?! ... fine time to walk off and leave me all alone...
...you had to... you had to.... it's me, isn't it? Isn't it, Piper? I saved your life... and you couldn't save mine... it's me who died, right, Piper?... that's why you went away... 'cause you lost me, too.... that's why you were crying... 'cause it hurt...
...Serves you right for caring, you idiot! Look at me, I don't care. I'm not crying because you're not here. I'm not crying because I don't know where you are or if you're still alive. I don't care about you. I don't care about anybody. I'm the Trickster, dammit! I work alone! None of this fuckin' Piper and Trickster bullshit! It doesn't matter how well we worked together! It doesn't matter that I could always rely on you the most! It doesn't matter that you sort of understood me, 'cause you don't! Nobody does! That's not why I went to find you on the balcony! That's not why I went to talk to you! I didn't miss you!
...Deadshot did, though... Wish he'd missed me as much as he missed you. Ha! I keel mahself... I saved you but I killed myself... Hey Hart, if you're gone, how come I'm still here? Quit playing that damned bunny music and talk to me, here! Where the hell am I? Where the hell are you? We were cuffed together, so where the hell are you? ...oh right, you had to cut my hand off...
Now wait a second, if I'm dead, how come I remember that?! And the..... and the..... oh god..... Piper? Piper, put that damned flute down and... and.... fuck... this has just gotta be a dream... s'gotta be a nightmare.. I gotta wake up...
...wake up!
