MEET DENNIS. DENNIS WAS A WALKING DOORMAT FOR SOME OF THE PUB BULLIES. THE BULLIES, NOT TOO BRIGHT, NOT TOO SPECIAL, JUST SOME BIG BLOKES WITH LOTS OF ATTITUDE BECAUSE THE BIGGER YOU ARE THE LESS LIKELY SOMEONE IS TO DOUBLE ON A BLUFF. DON’T HELP THAT DENNIS AIN’T NO’GOOD WITH WORDS NONE, BUT THE KID’S TALENTED WITH A CAMERA, CLEVER AS A FOX TOO. MEET HIS PARTNER AND BEST’FRIEND, TOMMY, GOOD MAN WITH A FAIR GAZE, NOT THE TYPE TO FOOL TWICE, IF AT ALL. LOOKS AFTER DENNIS, BUMPS HIM, CHECKS HIM, TOUGHENS HIM UP, PROTECTS AND SHARES WITH HIM. THEY MET A FEW YEARS BACK, DENNIS CAUGHT HEAT AT A POOL TABLE, COLLECTING ALL SORTS OF CASH, ALL TO HAVE THE BULLIES SNATCH UP HIS EARNINGS. TOMMY DIDN’T LIKE THAT TOO MUCH. WALKS UP TO THE BULLIES, ATTEMPTS TO REASON WITH THEM. THE BIG FUCK, WOULD YOU BELIEVE IT? SPITS ON TOMMY’S SHOES. TOMMY GRABS A POOL STICK AND LANDS A WHACK TO THE DOME. AFTER THE INCIDENT, THE BULLIES DIDN’T PUSH DENNIS AROUND LIKE THEY USE’TO. IT TOOK A FEW NIGHTS FOR DENNIS AND TOMMY TO WARM UP TO ONE ANOTHER, EVENTUALLY, FINDING SIMILARITIES IN THEIR SHAMELESS SENSE OF HUMOR.

OUTSIDE OF THE SCHOOL GROUNDS IS A PARKED HONDA WITH TOMMY AS THE DRIVER AND DENNIS TAKING SNAPS OF SARAH THE SCHOOLTEACHER, MAKING HER WAY TO HER CAR. ‘GOT IT!’ SAYS DENNIS. ‘ARE YOU SURE? TAKE A FEW MORE,’ REQUESTS TOMMY. ‘TOMMY, IS NO JUICE WORTH ITS EFFORTS SQUEEZE IF IT TAKES HELL AN ALL FURY FOR A GLASS OF LEMONADE WHENTS MISSION COMPLETE,’ ANSWERS DENNIS. ‘WHAT LEMONS? WHAT LEMONADE? IT IS NOT LIKE YOU’RE PERFORMING OPEN HEART SURGERY NOW ARE YA’? TAKE A COUPLE OF MORE SNAPS, WHY DON’T SHA,’ TOMMY INSISTS. ‘YOU CAN’T COOK A TURKEY WITH TWO CHEFS IN THE KITCHEN, TOMMY,’ REPLIES DENNIS. ‘WHAT IN THE WORLD IS YOUR BLATHERING ABOUT? IT’S A PICTURE, TAKE A COUPLE MORE — OH GREAT,’ STOPS TOMMY. THE SCHOOLTEACHER MAKES HER WAY INTO THE CAR, GOES OUT THE DRIVEWAY. ‘YOU SEE,’ SAYS TOMMY. ‘FOLLOW HER, I GOT AN IDEA,’ SAYS DENNIS. ‘AN IDEA,’ SNOOTS TOMMY. ‘YES. NOW GO, BEFORE WE LOSE HER,’ CONCLUDES DENNIS,
