JACK:                Respect?  I'm telling the  truth and you gots  no
                                     respect  for  that.



               MRS ATKINS:           Jack,  don't  lie.  Just  tell  us what  the hell

                                     you're playing at with that  junk?



                JACK:                What's  the prob,  ma?  Worried that  you might
                                     not be  the only junkie  in the house?



                              JACK storms  out,  running.  Front door opens  and

                              slams  angrily behind him.  Kit makes  that warning

                              hiss  that  cats  do.



                       4. Ext.  Back on open,  windy street with  Jack in park.  A
                          dog barks  on a  lead.



                PASSERBY:            REX,  don't  do  another  crap yet.  I've  got no

                                     more poo bags.  I  swear this mutt's  got
                                     diarrhoea or  something.



                JACK:                Dog diarrhoea?  Maybe he  just  thinks  it's

                                     funny.



                PASSERBY:            Rex!  Can't  you hold it  in till we  get home?



                              Flodge.



                Jack:                Think that's  a no,  mate.  (Beat)

                                     So,  I  tried drugs  once -  everyone has.  I  had
                                     one  spliff when  I  was  just  a  kid last  year.

                                     Mom smelled it  in my room,  maybe her own pot
                                     was  getting  low or whatever,  but  I  didn't  like

                                     the way it made me  feel  so  I  didn't  do  it

                                     again.
