(Somewhere in store)\
Joe: Man, I can't believe Steve is really gone.\
\
Bob: I know, he's been here almost since day one.\
\
Joe:  What really bugs me is the reason he was fired!  It was totally unfair!\
\
Bob: Yeah, but it's too late now.  As much as I hate to say it, Jessie's in charge, and what she says goes.\
\
Joe:  So that's it?  You're just gonna sit there and take it?  What happened to the guy that made me wear a monkey mask my first week here?  What happened to the man who threw lit cigarettes at me two weeks ago for no apparent reason?  \
\
Bob: Look, I don't want to put MY job on the line.  This place is cake, and I'm not going to lose it.\
\
Joe: Well, Steve is my friend, and I'm going to try to talk Jessie into changing her mind.\
\
Bob: Well, well, well.  The little mouse has a set after all.  This should be interesting.\

(Back office, jessie at desk, Joe walks in.)\
Jessie: Can I help you Joe?\
\
Joe: Well, you can start by getting Steve back here.\
\
Jessie:  Excuse me?\
\
Joe:  You didn't need to fire him.\
\
Jessie:  How do you know?  Do you know how many times I walked in on him doing nothing?  Or that he just stood around recently when the store was an absolute disaster?  \
\
Joe: Look, you don't understand...\
\
Jessie: No, YOU don't understand.  I am in charge here, and what I say goes.  I try to be as fair as I can, but lately the three of you have been acting like children.  You saw what I did yesterday.  Don't think that you are not expendable.  Are we understood?\
\
Joe: Yes ma'am.  (Joe leaves, returns to Bob)\
\
Joe: Did you hear?\
\
Bob: Every word.  Here, I thought you might want this.  (Hands Joe a bag)\
\
Joe: What's this?\
\
Bob: Your testicles.  They rolled on out here, and I thought you might need them.\
\
Joe: I hate you.\
\
Bob: You know I'm your hero.  (Walks off)\
