From Hotline:

(With quick precision, Dawn pulls up the sleeve of her left arm. She takes the razor blade and pushes it into the skin of her inner left forearm. She does not slice. She simply pushes and holds the blade there. She bleeds.)

From Tanker and Slug:

Pause. A window slams shut. SLUG struggles to his hands and knees. He lurches forward. TANKER throws a dart which lands in SLUG's path. SLUG stops.)

TANKER
Go back to sleep.

(SLUG collapses to the ground.)

TANKER
Gimme the dart.

(Without looking, SLUG finds the dart and flings it back toward the porch. TANKER retrieves it. He goes back to his dart game. NOBLE bursts through the front door. He is wearing only a pair of jeans.)

NOBLE
We got a chain saw?
