Griff the Invisible Page #5

Is anyone...

Is your key...

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Um, no!

Oh, f*** off!

F***!

My thing is... Is Steve around?

My computer's complete...

Wha-a-a-at?!

What the f***? WHAT the f***?

No, no, no, no, no, no.

Well, that's not true.

I'm not typing anything.

It's some virus or something.

F***!

Tony. See me now.

Gary, I've just got to send...

I'll be there...

Now.

Yeah.

Yeah. Sh*t.

I think it's over with her.

Who?

Melody, Griff!

Jesus.

And I really tried.

I sent funny texts and silly ones.

And serious ones.

Yeah.

She said she needed time,

but it doesn't mean she has to

not call me at all, does it?

I dunno. Um...

At all?

Should call him. He's pretty upset.

We've been on three dates.

Sorry.

I'll call him.

What were you like as a kid?

Small.

I bet you were popular.

I was.

Really... popular.

We're not the same person as we

were when we were kids, you know.

No, obviously.

I mean literally.

I mean every cell that made you up

when you were a kid

doesn't exist anymore.

They're long dead.

So that all the cells that

make you up as you are now

are new.

It's this complete reinvention.

Uh...

Let's walk.

OK.

Before I tell you this,

you have to commit to a vow of

secrecy unlike any other.

You won't believe it at first.

You'll probably laugh.

I won't laugh.

And I'm only telling you because

you saw things you shouldn't.

I'm not who I seem to be.

I have powers.

And with these powers

comes a responsibility...

...to fight...

...to protect...

...to uphold justice

and defend the innocent...

...alone.

My life is too dangerous

to have... friends...

...or more than.

Sorry.

I don't hate you. I like you.

I like you too, Griff.

But nothing can happen between us.

It's not just because of Tim.

It's for your own safety.

It's because...

You should call Tim.

'Bye, Griff.

Pause there.

Just because you're fired

doesn't mean you're safe.

Oh, sh*t! Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t!

Griff.

Griff, can I have a word?

Where are you going?

Oh.

Hi, Gary.

Listen, Griff.

We're going to have to let you go.

Mm-hm.

You're late all the time, you

don't fit into the work environment.

And...

...have you been sneaking

into the office at night?

Because that's not

generally on, Griff.

And now Tony's talking charges.

Anyway, that's the...

I'll pay you till

the end of the week.

I'm sorry, Griff.

Hi, Griff.

Hi. There's someone...

I know. I'm sorry.

Ugh!

So, Griff.

I don't like weird, f***ed-up freaks

making me look like a dick

in front of my friends.

You wouldn't understand that because

you don't have any friends.

But to me it's important.

Yeah?

Yeah.

I don't enjoy hurting people.

But if it happens again...
