SOMA | The Meme Dump

NICK

Did you even read your contract? I mean, the world doesn't revolve around your ass, LB.

You’ve got to play by team rules or you’ll be eliminated... Frank Gehry said that shit.

Levon is feeling faint. The crowd around him begins to applaud. An enormous red balloon in the shape of a dog’s head is being lead down the street by a team of volunteers. A sudden gust of wind lifts one of the handlers off the ground. The rest of the volunteers laugh as they fight to keep the balloon under control.

NICK

Consider this reversewitness protection. We’re removing you from your life to hide you from the cops!

Levon looks pale and disoriented.

LEVON

So, what am I supposed to do?

NICK

Go with the Cleaners. No harm will come to you.

LEVON

Can I have pizza?

NICK

Yeah man... All the pizza. Levon, this a big day. You've graduated to a higher class. You're an adult now, LB.

Levon pushes out of the crowd. He steps off the curb into an intersection.

LEVON

Okay… where’s the van?
