DANE What?!
JAMES Say again- Hey, say again, bub?
RONALD I own a shop. Out front, you can buy trinkets, doorknobs, hooks, foot pasties... In the back, there's people who've made me mad so I've driven a peg through their skull, hung them up by the feet, cut their throat and let the blood drain out.
DANE Is that where you get the feet pasties?
RONALD Sometimes.
JAMES I got a question. Is this...allowed?
RONALD There's no rule that says a dog can't play basketball.
JAMES Say that… say that again.
RONALD You know?
JAMES Say that again, mate.
RONALD I said, there's no rule that says a dog can't play basketball, aye?
JAMES A dog?
RONALD So show me where it says I can't kill people, hang them up by their feet, cut their throat, and let the blood drain out, and then scrape their feet with a vegetable peeler, and make a baklava!
DANE Right, but like… is there a market for that?
RONALD I'm in business, aren't I?
JAMES It seems like there's a market for baddies, yeah. If you're a real baddie.
RONALD Yeah!
DANE ...foot pasties though…
JAMES No croissant in your shop?

DANE What about bone boat? Are you making a bone boat?
JAMES Out of what - human bones??
DANE Bit heinous, isn't it though?
JAMES Yeah. Curious, ain't it?
RONALD In a nutshell - since you two are so nosy and want to know everything about my private life - yeah! I sell pastries made out of foot skin from people that I've killed because I was mad at them. And I'm saving the bones to build a boat. A bone boat.
JAMES Right, a human bone boat.
RONALD A human bone boat.
DANE Do bones float naturally? Like...
RONALD They float great!
JAMES Common knowledge, ain't it?
RONALD Why do you think bodies keep washing up on the shore?
DANE Right.
JAMES So, you sell a few bone boats, do a bit of traveling-
RONALD No, the boat's for me.
