Interment

- Do you ever wonder what happens to us after life?

No.

Why can't you ever be serious?

Come on. You know, I have.

Doesn't everybody?

It's just so insane.

You know, it's crazy to look at the world

and just keep going on as we do.

Death everywhere, drugs, terrorists.

Even the kids are picking up

on blowing the faces off of their classmates.

But if it's not close to us we're safe.

What are you getting at Chels?

Well, what do you think?

What happens to us after we die?

Well, no one's safe.

Eventually, we just go straight into the ground.

We get eaten up by worms.

But eventually we come back as roses.

Or we just get seared to ash.

So, no heaven or hell, huh?

No, I deal in what it is.

Life is heaven and hell combined.

When we're gone, it's over.

That's pretty bleak.

No, it's just real.

You asked.

Fair enough.

Well, I hope I go to heaven

and you're not leaving me up there all by myself.

I'm taking you with me.

Well, I love you too, honey.

But I'm not too sure about that.

The things I've done.

Even if there is a God, I'm denied.

Come on, let's get outta here, let's go home.

This isn't easy for me either, Scott.

You have no idea how hard this is.

For you?

It's always about you.

Always has been.

That's not fair.

Fair?

What's fair about me devoting my life to you?

You've ripped my heart out.

You crumbled it, just tossed it in the trash, like,

like some piece of garbage.

Is that fair?

You told me you loved me.

You'd stand by me.

And now this. Gone.

I'm sorry I hurt you.

No.

Being torn by a thorn hurts.

This? You killed me.

I can't be with you, Scott.

I wish I'd never even met you and broke your heart.

No.

I'm sorry, Scott.

I have to go.

Chels.

Don't go.

What are you doing?

Finish the job.

I thought you were stronger than this.

I guess I was wrong there too.

You can't leave.

This place.

Come.

Hi.

Where are we?

You are here, where we all go.

A quiet place for the most part.

Yet some of us do get rowdy from time to time.

You'll understand the particulars soon enough,

but there's something about you,

which tells me that you knew this was coming all along.

So this is hell?

Hell?

Hell is a pitiful place left for the average,

I know, for I've been there many times.

I do have my travels.

Don't demean yourself.

You were meant for this.

No.

Denial.

That's usually the case around these parts,

but things do happen.

Usually unexpected.

Everyone has their limits.

Even I cannot see past the seventh fold.

I tried, I tried to walk the right path,

live the right way.

Doesn't that matter?

I believed.

Belief is far from certainty.

Is it not?

Why am I here then?

What led me to this?

Why?

Why?

Why?

After all these years

that one never fails to give me the chuckles.

Why?

You know the answer, don't you, child?

Scott.

About time.

McKlellan. held me.

He needed last night's copy.

- I don't give a fuck what McKlellan needed.

You're late.

So far?

- So far, dead cunt, found by hikers in hold.

1079, six minutes ago.

Sure smells like death.

You know I bet they took her-

Shut your mouth.

Snap your shots.

Get the fuck off my crime scene, Sommers.

You don't get paid to talk around here.

I'm lonely.

Scott.

What? What do you want?

Finish the job, Scott.

I'm dead inside.

Twisting and rotting.

I can feel the maggots crawling throughout my core.

Feeding off of what I used to be.

Is this what you wanted, for me to suffer?

You left me here to walk this path, alone.

Scott!

Hi. Scott, right?

- Yeah. - I'm Anna.

Yeah, come on in.

- Before we get any further, it's 200 cash.

Right.

Okay, now we can have some fun.

Okay.

We don't have to rush anything.

Come, sit with me.

You're quiet.

I guess I should watch out, huh?

What?

- Oh, you know what they say. About the quiet ones?

No.

You're kidding me, right?

No.

I can't do this.

That's up to you, Scott.

We don't have to do anything.

It's your money though.

Scott's not my real name.

Well, that makes two of us then.

Anna's just the name I use.

I can be whoever you want.

Just say the name.

I can't.

Please just go.

Chelsey?

Is that it?

Don't touch me.

Okay. I tried.

I don't understand why you called.

All right, do you mind if I use your bathroom before I go.

Well, I guess I'll be going.

Sorry for everything.

I'm sorry too.

I'll get that.

What are you doing?

Got what you need?

I have what I need.

$19.50.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Working hard. Huh?
