The dead don't die

Hank:
Like I said on the phone, Cliff, often Fern gets here early...so I thought I might get some coffee to go, and then...Oh, my god. I saw them, Fern and Lily.

[Chief Cliff enters the coffee shop, takes a look inside and comes back out]

Hank (continues):
What the hell was it? A wild animal? Several wild animals?

Chief Cliff:
I don't know. But whatever it was, it even smashed the coffee pots.

[Officer Ronnie Peterson arrives, enters the coffee shop, takes a look inside and comes back out]

Officer Ronnie Peterson:
Jesus Christ, Cliff. What the heck was it? A wild animal? Several wild animals?

Hank:
That's exactly what I said.

Officer Mindy Morrison (on arrival):
Hey guys...(looks at some floral arrangements at the entrance of the coffee shop)...Wow, Fern's really done wonders with these flower beds. Really perks up the place, huh. What? What happened?

Chief Cliff:
God, Mindy. I don't think you want to see this.

[Mindy enters the coffee shop, takes a look inside and comes back out]

Officer Mindy Morrison:
No, I didn't need to see that. Was it a wild animal? Or several wild animals? Cliff, is that really Fern and Lily in there?

Chief Cliff:
Oh, no. That was Fern and Lily, but now...

Officer Mindy Morrison:
Do you need me here?

Chief Cliff:
Maybe you could help out with crowd control.

Officer Mindy Morrison:
(speaking to 3 people who were standing a few meters away) Okay folks, can you move it along now, please? Thank you.

Chief Cliff:
May I ask you a question?

Officer Ronnie Peterson:
Sure. Ask away.

Chief Cliff:
You have been saying that this is all gonna end badly, from the very beginning, over and over. So, what made you so f***ing sure of that? How did you know everything in advance?

Officer Ronnie Peterson:
Do you really want to know?

Chief Cliff:
Yes! I want to know. I really want to know!

Officer Ronnie Peterson:
Okay. I know because I've read the script.

Chief Cliff:
You...read the script. The whole script? All of it?

Officer Ronnie Peterson:
Yeah. Jim gave me the whole script.

Chief Cliff:
He only gave me our scenes. I never saw a complete script. After all I've done for that guy. And it's a lot that you don't even know about.

What a dick!
