Isaac, Jon, and Janna stand behind the church while Jon smokes.
JON: (Pulling out a pack of cigarettes) Anybody want a smoke?
ISAAC: You can't smoke here, Dude. We're way too close to the church.
JON: Who is going to see us? We're behind a damn shed.
ISAAC: If my dad smells that shit he'll drown us in the goddamn baptismal.
JANNA: Or worse, what if your mom catches us?
JON: I'm not worried about it. I've smoked out here before.
ISAAC: What if they smell it? There's a first time for everything.
JON: Eh. I'm legal now- I can smoke if I want. I still can't believe those fucksticks really said I stole that money. That's bogus, Man.
ISAAC: I tried telling him. I'm sorry I abandoned you in there like that. I couldn't take listening to their bullshit anymore. It wasn't fair.
JON: Man your daddy can be such an asshole.
ISAAC: How about Virginia Hickory? She's a real piece of something isn't she?
JON: Good Lord Almighty you got that right.
ISAAC: She vexes me.
JON: She...
ISAAC: Vexes me.
JON: What the hell does that mean?
ISAAC: She annoys the piss out of me. I just read that word in a book. I'm trying to use it as much as I can now. It's a good word, vex.
JON: Better be careful about makin' you too mad unless she wants you to put a vex on her.
ISAAC: You're an idiot.
JON: I read books too.
ISAAC: I know for a fact that you do not.
JON: I read the Bible.
ISAAC: You have the Bible read to you on Sundays.
JON: Ah shut up.
JANNA: Do y'all ever feel like sometimes it's hard to know who to trust? Like in this church. (Beat) Maybe I just don't know people well enough yet.
ISAAC: You've been here a couple months. That's long enough. I don't trust any of these people.
JON: What about me?
ISAAC: Especially not you.
(They all laugh. Pause.)
JON: Bunch of fucksticks.
ISAAC: You're telling me.
JANNA: Where's Aileen?
ISAAC: She was getting tea for the King.
JANNA: Seems like she's a bit of a pushover.
ISAAC: (Beat) Nah she just wants to do a good job.
JON: Oh I'm sure she wants to do a good job for him alright.
ISAAC: Shut the fuck up man that's my girlfriend you're talking about. And my dad for chrissake.
JANNA: She does seem a little eager to please him.
ISAAC: Everyone here does.
JON: Not me.
