The Tribe, Season 2

Jack:
Lex! [sits with him at the table] So are you still interested in those game boys?

Lex:
What’s it to you?

Jack:
Well, I need some batteries and you always seem to have a stash.

Lex:
Are you trading?

Jack:
Don’t worry! It’ll all be worthwhile. I mean, I might even throw a little extra in.

Lex:
[pause] You really want those batteries, don’t you?

Jack:
Well, yeah, batteries … and advice.

Lex:
On what?

Jack:
Women.

Lex:
[laughs]

Jack:
Don’t look at me like that because … because this is difficult enough as it is!

Lex:
Well, what do you wanna know?

Jack:
How …? I wish they were like computers!

Lex:
You mean, came with an off switch?

Jack:
Yeah! I mean I don’t understand!

Lex:
What??

Jack:
Well, how do you know, if a girl likes you or not?

Lex:
I don’t know.

Jack:
You must!

Lex:
Well I have to admit, it happens to me all the time.

Jack:
Okay, so, you automatically expect a girl to be attracted to you?

Lex:
I couldn’t have put it better myself!

Jack:
Okay! So if I think this girl likes me, not that there’s any particular girl, then, she will … like me?

Lex:
No. No, because you look the way you do and I look the way I do. And that’s the difference between a lover and a nerd! [he leaves]
