Walled In Page #2

Denise, I need to introduce you

to someone.

He's dead set

on eating earthworms.

Imagine,

nothing but earthworms.

Listen to me.

You remember the eviction notice?

What eviction notice?

We all have to leave.

They're gonna tear down the building.

Oh, and who are you, miss?

This is what I was trying to tell you.

She's in charge of the demolition.

Not the most graceful girl,

is she?

Sam:
To bring down a building,

you weaken the structure,

and gravity

will do the rest.

People are shocked to learn

how little explosive is needed

if you understand the building.

Sometimes you'll get a structure

in perfect shape,

beautifully designed,

could last forever,

and you know when

you're destroying it

that you're taking

along the memories

of people who have

lived there.

Well, buddy,

we got a problem here.

The wall's 16 feet closer

than on the blueprints.

That's huge.

Sh*t!

Jimmy's voice:

"November 12th. Her name is Sam.

She's finally here,

and she's so pretty.

I watch her work,

and I wonder if she knows I'm there.

Her job is to blow things up.

I'd love for her to show me

how to take down a building.

And I could tell her the whole story

about this place.

At least what I want her

to know.

She'd believe

whatever I said. "

Sorry, no credit cards.

Machine's broken.

Do you have internet?

Sam:

You gotta be kidding me.

That little liar.

Jimmy:

Look who's here.

- Hey, what's up?

- I don't know. Just hanging out. Why?

Shouldn't you be in school?

No, I do correspondence courses.

Mom says it's better that way.

Don't you have any friends?

Yeah, I've got one

and the dog.

There used to be a lot more

houses like this before,

but most of them

were torn down.

When the factory closed,

everyone just took off.

This is all that's left.

Well, you really know how

to impress a girl.

You know, I know

about Malestrazza, Jimmy.

You don't know anything.

I know Malestrazza was killed.

And I know

about the other murders.

And you told me he was living

on the eighth floor?

Why did you lie to me?

I tell stories.

I don't lie.

You lied when you said it was

dangerous to go on the roof.

Why? Did you go?

Listen, tonight,

I'll take my mom's passkey.

We can visit

the eighth floor.

We'll see if I'm a liar or not.

Okay, we'll see.

- It's funny.

- What?

You dress like a guy

and do a job usually...

Guys do?

You're a dyke, aren't you?

Well, you get straight

to the point.

I'm just curious.

Why are you in the closet?

Ashamed?

No, and I'm not a dyke.

Well, that's a relief.

- What did you tell her?

- Nothing.

I said,

what did you tell her?

Just don't go anywhere

near her, Jimmy, please.

I love you, you know?
