Looking Back
Joe Blake and Terry Lee Collins are sitting on a deck of their club. They are relaxing and talking lightly about the past and how they got there to day. After all of the successful bank robberies, they finally got to live their dream of opening a club in Mexico and becoming rich and happy. The only problem is that the girl they both loved, Kate Wheelers, ran off with another guy. But that was twenty years ago. Now they are in their late fifties and still friends.
Scene: A sunny day, no clouds in the sky on a beach. Joe and Terry are seen sitting on lawn chairs on a deck of a night club with table all around them. They have shorts and beach shirts on with sunglasses, drinking an assortment of drinks that they are trying out for their club's bar.
Terry:(Worriedly after smelling a drink) Joe, I think that this one has lime in it. You know how I get with lime. Can't you hear my throat closing up? Joe? Do you hear that?
Joe:(staring off into the beach with a slight smile on his face) ...Terry, there is no lime in there.
Terry:No lime?
Joe:No.
Terry:Oh. Well, then I don't know what this is. Maybe I'm getting another food allergy that I didn't even know about. What's in this?
Joe:…I wonder where Kate is.
Terry:(Not realizing that Joe changed the subject) I mean maybe there are pickles in here. You know how I get with pickles. I-I can't breathe! Joe! J-
Joe:(Turns to look at him quizzically) Terry, there are no pickles in there.
Terry:(relaxing again) Alright.
Joe:…It's your fault you know.
Terry:(Pulled out of his dazed look) What? What's my fault?
Joe:Kate leaving.
Terry:Are you kidding me? She left because she's too messed up to stay with one guy. That's why she left. Not because of me.
Joe:(Still staring out at the water) Well, if you hadn't started it and gone with her when she was with me, maybe she wouldn't have liked having more than one guy at a time.
Terry:Are you kidding me with this Joe? It's been 20 years! She would have left us anyway! She already knew what it was like with two guys or did you forget that she was married?
Joe:(In a soft mumble) Well, it didn't help that you scared her off with you paranoia problems.
Terry:Don't even start with me, Joe! You know that I can't control those! (Mumbles softly) Plus, she thought they were endearing.
Joe:Endearing! Pah! She was lying! Can't you see that?
Terry:No! Apparently I can't! I'm just too stupid to know that, but oh wait; you're the stupid one right? You would have been nothing without me! You wouldn't have had a plan, you wouldn't have an idea, and you would have probably just shot everyone down! Right! Am I right, Joe?
Joe:Don't start that thing up again. We wouldn't have gotten out of that prison if it wasn't for me.
Terry:Newsflash! I didn't want to escape from prison. I was perfectly fine in prison. I had my medication, I had a bed, and I had a life. I never asked you to spring us out.
Joe:(Interrupting) Terry, Terry! Is your left eye supposed to twitch and get blood shot like that?
Terry:(Forgetting the previous conversation completely) What! Since when? Oh man, I told you there was pickles in there, I told you. Now I have to go to the hospital and get some more medication and maybe I can get a check-up while I'm there and…(rambles off as Joe sneaks back into the club)
