BOWMAN:

What's the weather like up top?

WILLIE:

Clear for pickup.

JONES:

Let's hope it holds.

Cobb looks up disgustingly.

COBB:

Then what? Huh?

(to everyone)

Then what? You folks think

going up top's the answer to

all your problems. Well, it ain't.

BOWMAN:

Give us a break, Cobb...

COBB:

A break? You folks don't need a break,

you need psychiatrists. 'Know what

you'd be doing if you were up there,

right now?

SIXPACK:

(a boorish leer)

Eating p*ssy and drinking brew...

COBB:

Eating p*ssy my ass. What about

lines at the bank: What about

getting stuck in traffic?

SIXPACK:

(grinning)

Wherever I can find it.

Everyone laughs but Cobb, WE SEE he's serious.

COBB:

Bullshit! I'll tell you

what you'd be doing! You'd

be watching news on TV

that's so f***ing bad it

makes you nauseous. So you

go out and get in your car

to get some fresh air and

after you've been driving for

five minutes you realize the

air's so damn dirty you don't dare

breath it! That's what you've

got to look forward to...

LOWER RING CORRIDOR

Beck approaches the Mess and as he nears it we hear Cobb

ranting inside.

COBB'S VOICE(O.S.)

...And if you're lucky

enough to make it back home

to your house that looks the

f***ing same as everyone else's,

you'll find your wife's just as

fat as she was when you left and

the only reason your kids ain't

strung out on the drugs they were

using when you left is that

they've found some new drugs

which f*** 'em up even more!...

You people just don't appreciate

how good you've got down here...
