INT. THE GTI - NOON

MONTY drives, with TRAFTON in the passenger seat and JOHNSON in the back seat.

JOHNSON POV.

TRAFTON Monty, give me a cigarette.

MONTY It’s my last one.

TRAFTON Give it to me.

MONTY No, it’s my last one.

TRAFTON I gave you one before, you owe me.

MONTY Trafton, it’s my last one.

TRAFTON I gave you one before. Give me your last cigarette.

MONTY No! You’ve smoked three cigarettes since then, I haven’t had any.

TRAFTON I don’t care. You owe me one. I want your last cigarette.

MONTY Well, I’m gonna smoke it.

TRAFTON I’ll buy you a pack.

MONTY Trafton, I’m smoking this cigarette.

TRAFTON Come on, I’ll buy your next pack if you give me that cigarette.

JOHNSON I think that’s the protocol here.

TRAFTON Yeah, Monty, give me your last cigarette.

JOHNSON That’s the last cigarette rule, you never can take the last cigarette unless you buy the next pack.

MONTY I don’t have to give it to him though, I can choose to turn down a free pack if I want to.

TRAFTON Is that true?

JOHNSON That’s true.

TRAFTON Monty, give it to me.

MONTY No, I’m smoking it. Give me the lighter.

TRAFTON I don’t have it.

MONTY Yes you do, I saw you use it when you smoked those three cigarettes this morning. Check your pockets.

TRAFTON Yup, here it is.

MONTY Give it to me.

TRAFTON throws lighter of the window of the car.

Lighter bounces and comes to stop on pavement.

Head-on view. Silence. MONTY throws cigarette out of car window.

Cigarette lands on pavement.

JOHNSON POV.

MONTY I quit.

TRAFTON Me too.
