Iiving in a flophouse. No job...
:12:03
no home, no upward mobility,
very few teeth.
:12:06

talking to the gutter, clutching
a bottle of paint thinner. And why?
:12:13
Because you wouldn't help me
in English. No!
:12:15

:12:17

:12:43

:12:45
-Okay, what?
-Okay, I'll help you.
:12:48
You will?
:12:51
When?

:13:29
-Where?
-McKenzie Hall.

Great!
