CRASH, Part 5:

SCENE:
Tanner is kneeling down to look at the possum, still on the phone with Izzy.

IZZY: Are you okay?

TANNER (distracted): I got a little cooked, but I’m okay.

IZZY: You had an accident, and the first thing you do is quote Star Wars at me?

TANNER: Oh, man, I think I killed it. How can you tell if a possum’s alive?

IZZY: Tanner, it’s a possum. They’re vermin. My father used to shoot them down South.

TANNER (irritated): I don’t care. It’s a living creature, and I hurt it because I was stupid. It’s not going to die because of me. Where the hell do you bring a broken possum?

IZZY: The vet, I guess. Is it living?

TANNER (looking closely): Yeah, but it’s in bad shape. (Sound effect: Grrrrr, tiny and small) And now it’s growling at me.

IZZY: Tanner, it’s going to give you rabies. Just leave it behind, it’ll get by.

TANNER: That’s what they told me about Ann, but maybe this one will be more grateful.

IZZY: It’d have to be.
