Great. Taking out the trash. I'm so done with my life.

'Nuh-uh! Only the greats die young!'

Okay...what about Tom Hanks?

'Fair point.'

I hate lugging down 3 garbage bags through the apartment building.

'Eh...whatever, just get over it.'

Of course, if I didn't live alone, I would have someone to help carry the load.

'Well, you wouldn't be so lonely if you would stop being a geek!'

I'm not a geek! I just have...geeky interests.

'Uh-huh.'

Just shut up.

'Aww...you know you love me.'

No, I don't. I'm sick and tired of you telling me what to-

...

'...'

There's a human head in this bag.

'Yep.'

Did you do this?

'Yep.'

Where's the rest of him?

'In the other bags.'

Wh-Why? How? I didn't- Jimmy...

'Well, that's why you're lonely now.'

You-no...I killed him. Why?

'We both did. He found some chick online and we found out.'

But I-I don't remember...how could I have done this?

'Once again, we did. I told you what to do, and you carried through. Jimmy won't be bothering us any longer...'

What am I going to do?

'Just wait here. The cops'll be here any minute now.'

H-how...?

'We called them an hour after Jimmy was taken care of. Told them the area and said we did it.'

No...no, this can't be happening. I can't-

...

'...'

Sirens. How could you do this to me?

'They won't know I exist. Meanwhile, you can do whatever I say in prison.'

No...

'Oh yes, sweetheart, we'll have a long time to plan things in prison...'
