Points of Origins


Scott looks at the tool box checking if all of the tools were inside, while in the background Tex and Church were arguing.

Tex: As far as I'm concerned, I'm square with you.

Tucker, Jonathan and Caboose looks at Church simultaneously all the while Basically eats his popcorn with his helmet on.

Church: I saved you from a life of imprisonment. How the hell are you square with me?

Tucker, Jonathan and Caboose looks at Tex simultaneously.

Tex: Because I didn't kill you back at Sidewinder.

Tucker, Jonathan and Caboose looks at Church... Again.

Church: You know, I don't really see how not killing somebody is the same thing as doing them a favor.

Tex: Well, if you don't appreciate it, I could just kill you right now.

Church: No, you can't! I'm already dead, bitch! I guess the joke's on you!

Barrus acting as their therapist, asks.

Barrus: And how does that make you feel?

Church: Shut up Barrus.

Barrus: Awww.

Caboose: Stop it! Stop fighting. Can't you see that you're tearing us apart? WHAT ABOUT US?

Tex: What about you?

Cunningham wiped his visor with a very rough face towel.

Cunningham: Yeah... What about us?

Caboose: We helped you too. And what do we get? Nothing!

Tex: Well yeah, but...

Church: Yeah, but nothin'. He's got a point.

Tex: I did help them get the flag back.

Tucker: Yeah, but you were paid to do that. We rescued you as a favor. We could have just let you rot in the Red Army prison, it wouldn't have made any difference to us.

Tex: Fine, I'll stay here as long as it takes to help you guys win this thing. As soon as I have, I'm outta here. What do you need me to do?

Tucker: I have no idea. If you knew how to fix a tank, I would have you do that.

Tex: …Okay.

Caboose: Wait, you-you know how to fix Sheila? …I love you.

Tex looks at Scott, her eyes narrowed but no one could see it, the latter was now cleaning the tools from the box.

Tex: what about him? Could he also fix it?

Church: Scotty? Oh yeah he was banned from fixing things.

Tex: …How?

[REDS]

Lopez: Entonces le decía "tu no pesas más, yo peso más." Entonces pusimos nuestros cuerpos sobre la escala y determinamos quién tenía el peso más grande. Después de eso me llamé a mi mismo Lopez La Pesado.

[Then I would say "you don't weigh more, I weigh more." So we put our bodies on the scale and determined who had the greatest weight. After that I called myself Lopez the Heavy.]

Grif: Man. First he doesn't talk at all, and now we can't get him to shut up. What's he saying?

Simmons: What're you asking me for?

Grif: Well, you know, because you're of, uh, a Latino persuasion.

Simmons: Simmons isn't a Spanish name, you dumbass. I'm Dutch-Irish.

Grif: But I thought-

Simmons: What?

Grif: Eh, never mind.

Hanby looks at Simmons the Kiss-Ass.

Hanby: Irish? You fuckin' Irish?

Simmons turns to Hanby.

Simmons: 'Dutch-Irish.'

Hanby: Well you don't sound Irish?

Simmons: What?

Hanby then gets uncomfortably close to Simmons.

Hanby: You... Don't... Sound... Irish... Mate...

Simmons pushes Hanby's face away from him.

Simmons: Its Dutch-Irish, There is a 'Dutch' in my Dutch-Irish.

Hanby: Its so easier to identify yourself with an accent.

Simmons: Oh yeah? well what if I was mute.

Hanby: Oh that'll be great, I couldn't year your constant Kiss-Ass anymore... Private Dicknips.

Simmons and Hanby, stared daggers at each other, all the while others (exluding Donut and Lopez, the latter who was interested to see this fight) were nervous.

Patterson: Okay this is getting a little too uncomfortable.

Grif nodded agreeing with Patterson.

Donut: …I'm from Iowa.

Simmons and Hanby: Nobody Cares!

[BLUES]

Church: Okay, take it easy guys. When I was over at the Red Base, I saw that they've already got their jeep fixed... Then I saw the jeep blew up, but they have a second one.. So whatever you do, don't let 'em see us before we get Sheila back online.

Cunningham: What are you gonna do again?

Church: Didn't I tell you already?

Cunningham: No you didn't, all you just said was; "SHIT!"

Caboose: Okay, okay. Even if we get Sheila fixed, how are we going to turn her over? I mean it's not as if we could just lift-

Tex flips Sheila the tank back up, unfortunately during that procedure-

Scotty: O- SHIT!

Scott gets crushed by the tank.

Scotty: AAAAAAAGHHHHH-... Ow.

Caboose: Oh. She is a very strong lady.

Church: I'm the one that's the least visible, so I'm gonna head up here to higher ground. I'll keep an eye on the Red Base. If I see anything, I'll let you know.

Barrus: Ah shoot.

Jonathan: Oh SHIT! Call a medic! Paramediec!

Caboose: I think he was the medic?

Barrus: No he wasn't, Caboose. No he wasn't.

Church: I'm the one that's the least visible, so I'm gonna head up here to higher ground. I'll keep an eye on the Red Base. If I see anything, I'll let you know.

Caboose: Great, I'll come with you!

Jonathan: Oh Oh! Me too!

Church: That kinda defeats the purpose, Rooks.

Caboose: Okay. What if I'm really... (softer) really... (whispering) quiet?

Church: Do you even understand what the term "visibility" means?

Caboose: Ah hah hah, uhh... good one, Church.

Jonathan: But I can turn invisible.

Church: How many times do i have to tell you, Delirious. No you cant.

Jonathan: But I can... Have you seen me, the great magician Trucklirious, vanish befo—

*BANG*

Jonathan gets shot by a shotgun blast straight to the face, flying across the ground.

The smoking shotgun came from Cunningham, who cocked the shotgun, and placed it on his back, everyone besides for of course Jonathan, Tex and Scott.

Cunningham: …What, He asked for it?

Church: (sighs) god dammit.

Church then turns back to Caboose.

Church: Seriously. You don't know what it means, do you?

Caboose: Uh, no...

Church: Caboose, just stay here, man, and try not to swallow your tongue or anything like that.

Tucker: Just watch the Red Base, and tell us if you see any movement.

Tucker runs up to Tex who is welding on the tank.

Tucker: So, I suppose if you're helping us, you're not as mean as I thought.

Scott pleads for help, but seemingly gets ignored.

Scotty: (background) Hey guys? ow... I need help.

Tex: (stops to face Tucker) I wouldn't say I'm mean, I just get hired to do mean things.

Scotty: (background) Please.

Tucker: Yeah, but you like it.

Scotty: (groans in the background) Ugghhhhhh...

Tex: Well, I think it's important to enjoy what you do.

Tucker: So let's say I payed you to kill Caboose and Jon. (looks at Caboose who's helping Jonathan up) You would still do it, right? Even though you're supposed to be helping us?

Tex: Is this a hypothetical discussion, or should we start talking numbers?

Tucker: Yeah, I don't wanna talk about this any more.

Church was up on the ledge where he was killed.

Church: Hey, Tucker! Cunningham!

Tucker: What?!

Cunningham: Fuck you want!?

Church: What the hell is my body still doing up here?

Tucker: That's part of being dead, Church. Your body doesn't really move around much any more. Maybe you haven't fully grasped the concept yet.

Church: Alright, well let me rephrase that then: Why in the hell haven't you buried my body yet

Cunningham: (looks at Tucker) Buried? (Turns back to Church) The fuck you mean buried!?

Church: Oh What, don't tell me you guys don't know what buried means?!

Cunningham: We know what that means ya Dip-Shit!

Church: Then How come MY Body IS Still HERE!

Tucker: What are we gonna use? All we have are pistols and rifles. What do you want me to do, shoot you a grave?

Church: Well then how about shipping me back home? You know, let the loved ones pay a little respect.

Cunningham: Last time we checked, you only had one, and she's already here, Ooop Spoiler alert! She's probably gonna die with you!

Tucker: Well Church, here's your girlfriend. Tex, as one of Church's loved ones, would you like to pay your respects?

Tex turns around and starts working on the tank again.

Tucker: That was a stirring eulogy. Rest in peace, good buddy!
