Marc

Repo Man

Susan

Oh Marc!  It’s been to long!  I just wanted to see you again!

Marc

Oh Susan, it’s really nice to see you again but we’ve been broken up now for 5 years!  I’m married now

Susan

Marc I don’t care, remember you said we would be together forever.  It was supposed to be me and you until the end.  I want one more night with you!

Marc

Susan you have to go.  I’m sorry.  It’s over

Nancy

Well Susan you heard the man, it’s time for you to go.  Nice having you stop by.  By By now!

Nancy shoves Susan out the door and closes door

 Wow that was a treat

Marc

Honey I didn’t know she was stopping by, I promise this was a surprise to me!

Nancy

What more surprises are you holding back from Marc!

Trick or Treat!

Nancy opens the front door and a Gay man enters

Tony

Trick or treat Marc!

 

Marc

Oh my God! Tony get out of here!

Marc pushes Tony out the door

Nancy

Honey what was that!

Marc

Oh my college years

Trick or Treat

Marc opens door slowly an unkept man enters the house

Marc

Oh my God! Nick

Nick

Well trick or treat Marc whats it going to be?

Marc

Nick?  What are you doing here?  I thought you were dead?

Nancy

Honey what is going on?

Nick

Whats going on is that Marc left me for dead back in Iraq.  Remember that Marc?  Remember saying “Ill be back with some help”?

Marc

Nick the bombs started dropping, the explosions were too big, I was told the whole squad was dead.

Nick

And you never came back

Marc

Nick I’m sorry, it was a crazy time

Nick

I should kill you Marc, but I wont.  I will leave you with the knowledge that you left a man behind.  That pain is far worse than the death my men had to suffer. 

Nick walks out of the house and Nancy closes door

Nancy

What just happened?

Marc

I don’t know Nancy

Trick or Treat

Nancy opens door children stand at the front door asking for candy

Children
