– Hi.
– I’m sorry?
– I just said hi.
– Hi. Hello. Hi.
– Okay if I sit closer? How far are you going?
– Uh, Rockville Center.
– Get out! Me too!
– Really?
– What are the odds? Do I know you? Do you ever shop at Barnes & Noble?
– Sure. Sure.
– That’s it!
– Yeah?
– I’ve seen you, man! Book slave there for, like, five years now. Jesus! Is it five years?
– Ah. I would have thought I would’ve remembered you.
– It might be the hair.
– What might?
– It changes a lot. The color. That’s why you might not recognize me. It’s called Blue Ruin, the color.
– Right. Yeah.
– Snappy name, huh?
– I like it.
– Yeah. Anyway, this company makes a whole line of colors with equally snappy names. Red… Red Menace, Yellow Fever, Green Revolution. That’d be a job, coming up 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 personality in a paste.
– Oh, I doubt that very much.
– Well, you don’t know me, so… you don’t know, do you?
– Sorry. I was just… I’m trying to be nice.
– Yeah. I got it. My name’s Clementine, by the way.
– I’m Joel.
– Hi, Joel.
– Hey.
– No jokes about my name. Oh, no, you wouldn’t do that. You’re trying to be nice.
– I don’t know any jokes about your name.
– Huckleberry Hound.
– I don’t know what that means.
– Huckleberry Hound? What are you, nuts?
– It’s been suggested.
– No?
– I’m sorry. Just… It’s a pretty name, though. It really is nice. It’s, uh… It means «merciful». Right? Clemency?
– Although it hardly fits. I’m a vindictive 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 adjectives? 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 yelled at you. I’m a little out of sorts today. My embarrassing admission 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 stuff 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.
– Jesus!

– Hi. I could, uh, give you a ride, if you need. It’s cold.
– Yeah. Okay. Yeah.
– Yeah?
– It is frosty.
– You’re not a stalker or anything, right?
– I’m not a stalker. You’re the one that talked to me. Remember?
– That is the oldest trick in the stalker book.
– Really? There’s a stalker book?
– Mm-hmm.
– Okay. I gotta read that one.
– Look, I’m sorry if I came off sorta nutso. I’m not, really.
– Oh, it’s okay. I didn’t think you were.
– Did you wanna have a drink? I have lots of drinks, and I could, um…
– Um…
– Never mind. Sorry. That was stupid. I’m embarrassed now.
– No, no, no, no.
– Good night, Joel.
