PART 13 Humor the Guy
DOCTOR
Let the rest of them go, Carl...
CAPER
Caper! Call me Caper.
DOCTOR
I refuse to call you by a name that isn't you.
CATCHICK
Come on, Doc! Humor the guy.
DOCTOR
I refuse to back down on my principles even in the face of death...
CATCHICK
Great.
CAPER
The Doctor is trying score points for the afterlife which she'll soon be seeing.
(Caper holds up the trigger with a shaking hand. Catchick sees Dogboy circling and helps distract Caper)
Catchick
Wait! Can I have one last request?
CAPER
What?
CATCHICK
I'm young... I haven't lived my life.
CAPER
What are you talking about?
CATCHICK
There's so much life I want to live. So much I want to do... did I really do you such a wrong that I can't have one little request before I die.
CAPER
I don't know...
CATCHICK
Please...
CAPER
What is it?
CATCHICK
It's embarrasing... can I whisper it in your ear?
CAPER
Um... I guess so...
(Catchick leans in to whisper in his ear and gets ahold of his arm. Dogboy makes his move. Sirens are heard.)
CAPER (CONT.)
Sirens! Shade!
CATCHICK
Now!
(Catchick wrestles Caper's arm and Dogboy tackles Caper to the ground. The Doctor cowers between some chairs.)
DOGBOY
Got him!
