- Cuatro 4 Knock, knock, motherfucking knock. T knocks on M adeline’s door. M adeline opens the door. She looks like complete shit. M adeline’s usually got mad makeup on and looks very different. Her energy is different, plus it stinks in the apartment. The smell is coming out through the crack of the door. M ADELINE Hi T. T is taken back. T Hey M adeline. M ADELINE Hi T. Do you need help? Are you going through something? Do you feel unsafe? Are you feeling triggered?

T No, I’m okay, butHe points to the side. T (cont’d) I’m with Lola. Lola steps in. Lola gets in M adeline’s face. LOLA THAT’S RIGHT BITCH! THAT’S RIGHT!YOU WANNA TALK ABOUT M E? YOU WANNA TALK SHIT ABOUT M E? YOU WANNA TALK ABOUT M E? Lola sees the inside if the apartment. LOLA (cont’d) Oh shit! What the fuck? Lola looks around and notices the mess of old KFC buckets and food and shit on the floor, old pizza boxes, bunch of shit. Like months and months of takeout and boxes. The TV in the other room is mad LOUD.
