(Darunia invites GR over to a nightcap at his lavish country manor.)
DARUNIA: Yes, come in! Let me take your coat!
GR: (Looking around): Nice place, Mr. D! Say is that a Picasso?
DARUNIA: Why yes, yes it is! I had no idea you were an art fan. Shall we adjourn to the drawing room?
(The two enter a large, dark, wood-paneled room. In the corner, a fire is raging. The shadows of various stuffed beasts--trophies of Darunia's many safaris--haunt the room.)
DARUNIA: Well, what's your poison?
GR: Whiskey, straight.
DARUNIA: Good man, coming up!
(Darunia appears with two glasses.)
DARUNIA: Clinky!
(They toast.)
DARUNIA: To Tendo City! May it prosper!
GR: (Nods, says nothing, and drinks.)
(Darunia watches silently.)
DARUNIA: Good whiskey?
(GR swishes it around in his mouth and swallows.)
GR: Not bad. I've had better.
DARUNIA: Mmm.. have a seat. Let's talk!
(They take opposite seats next to the fire.)
DARUNIA: (clasping his own hands) Now then, what shall we talk about?"
GR: Hmm... I don't know. I'm actually kind of tired, I ought to be going. Thanks for the drink, Mr. D. I can see my own way out.
DARUNIA: (Eyes narrowed) Not at all, my dear boy, the pleasure... was entirely mine.
(GR puts on his hat and coat at the front door.)
(GR's face suddenly contorts in wide-open in horror, as Darunia burries a hatchet between his shoulders.)
DARUNIA: Not the best whiskey? FUCK YOU!
