Knock, knock
(pokes head around partially open door)

“No dishes flying”
“No screaming”
“No fisticuffs”
“Hmm, could be safe”
“No bad smells”
“sigh, guess I’ll give it a try”

(clears throat)
(no response)
(clears throat loader)
(breaths in saliva, goes into coughing jag)
(bangs head against door knob)

My forehead? Just a little bruise, I bumped it while … shaving.

You didn’t see nothing old man. We’re just five happy party clowns, sitting down to a plate of beef. White- powdery- beef.
