Jeff enters the room, and starts to clean the blood off of Warren's face. Warren's left eye is starting to swell up now.
Jeff: So, how's your memory serving you? Any better?
Warren: Little bits, but not much. Everything I've remembered I told the father of Colleen.
Jeff: What about sports? Do you remember sports?
Now that Jeff said that, Warren remembers he is a big NFL fan.
Warren: Football. I know I like Football. I don't remember who my favorite team is, but I know I like it a lot.
Jeff: What about women? Do you have a girlfriend?
Warren: I don't think so.
Warren told Jeff he doesn't think so, but really he suspects April of being his significant other.
Jeff: What about your job? You told-, you said to my friend that you are pretty sure you work at a school.
Warren: I remember when I talked to Colleen, it was in school. And I was dressed like a teacher or a counselor would be. You know, dressed nicely. Dress shirt tucked in and all.
Jeff: You weren't like that when we found you. It looks like your wearing blue jeans and a black t-shirt to me.
Warren: I know. I am in casual clothes now. It would help if I knew what day it was. Is it the weekend?
Jeff: It's Friday. Well, technically it's Saturday now.
Warren: When did all of this happen? To Colleen, I mean.
Jeff finishes cleaning Warren off.
Jeff: We're the ones who ask YOU the questions boy.
Jeff leaves the room and goes by Claude and Lennie.
Lennie: Let me guess, still no memory coming back to him?
Jeff: That's right. The only thing I got was that he likes Football. What are you gonna with that?
Claude is holding the spiked baseball bat.
Claude: Right now I'm still deciding. My patience is running thin.
And inside of the room, Warren remembers. . .
Warren sits on the couch watching the Chicago Bears play Football against the Green Bay Packers. It is raining outside, and the song "Only Time" by Enya is playing. Warren turns around and sees April washing dishes with her phone next to her playing the music.
Warren: Does that have to be so loud?
April turns to Warren and smiles.-
April: -Heh heh, I know halftime is about to start.
Warren stands up and starts walking over to April.
Warren: You could have waited, but don't worry about it. Nothing's gonna happen these last few seconds anyways.
