The Hunters Page #4

Now we're alone

to deal with it.

But a long time ago

that's the kind of thing

warriors went through.

You take the Vikings

for instance. Right?

I mean those were the guys

that really talked about this stuff.

They...

hang on a sec.

Anyway, the...

yeah, the Vikings.

They had a...

they had a word

for the suffering

of the conqueror

who comes home

with a foreign sickness.

It was called Frem...

Fremdveh...

Fremdveh

or something like that.

They had another word

for what they would suffer

when they were waiting

to go to war,

but I can't remember that one.

- What about nightmares?

- Insomnia,

nightmares... it's kind of

like a dilemma, you know?

I mean look at me tonight.

I'd almost

rather have nightmares.

It just seems so real.

And always at night,

it's... it's right there.

You know what it is, don't you?

No.

It's the weight of society.

The suppression.

The nightmares, they're just...

a self-censoring

social reflex.

It's quite a good sign.

Hey.

- Just breathe.

- Excuse me?

If you want your cramp to go away,

you just have to breathe,

maybe even bend over

a little bit.

It should help.

I promise.

Mm-hmm.

And...

if you eat food

before you go running,

try light stuff

like honey.

You know.

Well, thanks.

It's... it's very kind.

- Thank you.

- Don't get discouraged.

Just keep going.

It's not so bad.

I'm Alice.

- Hi, Alice.

- Hi. Mm-hmm.

- Okay. Okay.

- Okay.

- Okay.

- See you around.

Bye.

Oh sh*t.

Stephen, clear off table seven.

Take the order to six.

Cheeseburger with onion rings

ready to go for nine.

Okay, you got it?

You got it?

Haul ass!

It's rush hour.

Come on, people.

I don't pay you to sit around!

Keep moving moving moving.

- Let's go!

- Hey, buddy, buddy.

Yeah, can we get some food?

Right, so burger and fries.

- The same.

- You the same. I'll have burger and fries.

May I have

your house salad, please?

Okay, three burgers

and a house salad.

- Mm-hmm.

- Burger and fries,

house salad and a Diet Coke.

- Diet Coke, okay.

- Yeah.

Thank you.

Be kind.

- Hey.

- Hey, how you doing, kid? You all right?

- Yeah, I'm cool, man. You?

- I'm all right.

Listen, you know,

work can be tough.

Take it easy.

- What time do you get out of here?

- Around 4:
00.

Afterwards, I go boxing.

All right, so you got something

to look forward to.

- See ya later.

- What were we saying?

Oh, right.

So you can't trust this girl.

I saw her jogging in the park

this morning with a guy.

I don't think it matters if I'm jogging

by myself or with somebody else.

- That's a friend.

- Uh-oh.

Oh, right,

I don't think it matters.

Do you think it matters?

I was worried for him.

- Uh-huh. Oh right, yeah.
