- Bob Beuhler: D.J.
- D.J.: Hi, Bobby.
- Bob Beuhler: How do you feel?
- D.J.: I'm feeling better.
- Bob Beuhler: Good. The doctor said you were.
- D.J.: I could hear you trying to help me. I wanted you to say I'm sorry...
- Bob Beuhler: No.
- D.J.: But I couldn't.
- Bob Beuhler: It's my fault too.
- D.J.: Yes, it is. Because you don't what it's like.
- Bob Beuhler: I guess I don't.
- D.J.: Do you wanna know what it's like, Bobby?
- Bob Beuhler: Sure.
- D.J.: It's like all the electric wires in the house are plugged into my brain and everyone has a different noise so I can't think. Some of the wires have voices in them and they tell me things like what to do and that people are watching me. I know there really aren't any voices but I feel that there are, that I should listen to them or something will happen. That's why I sat for all the ads on TV because I feel the voice and the ad is talking to me. I hear them talking to me. He tells me to buy the things and well I'm afraid if I don't. I see things in the crowd, I see people looking at me and talking, I hear them talking about me and sometimes I hear them planning to kill me. I don't want to. I want to be like everybody else. I want to be like you, Bobby. I remember when it was like before. I was a class officer, I had friends. I was going to be an aeronautical engineer. You remember, Bobby? Do you remember me?
- Bob Beuhler: Of course I do.
- D.J.: I've never had a job. I've never owned a car. I've never lived alone. I've never made love to a woman. And I never will. That's what it's like. You should know. That's why I'm Hindu because maybe it's true. Maybe people are born again and if there is a God, maybe he'll give me another chance, I believe that. Because this can't be all I got.
- D.J.: And you were out in the open like an animal! Because it doesn't make any difference if a crazy man hears you, I'm not human, I'm just a... a thing I don't count. Nothing counts except the way you feel. You are the same selfish bastard you were 30 years ago and it was too bad if mom needed you because it didn't feel good to have a crazy brother and you haven't changed one bit. Your whole stinking like you never did anything unless it felt good, like an animal. Just like an animal! Well I'll tell you something buddy: it doesn't work anymore, it isn't cute. You're old, you're getting fat, that daughter could be your daughter, it's disgusting.
