BARBARIANS
AT THE GATE
BY
JAMES THORPE
SUMMERLEE: Really, George, one Pterodactyl
egg would prove the point, but a dozen?
Grandstanding!
CHALLENGER: Professional jealousy rears
it’s ugly head already.
CHALLENGER: The lad’s insane.
ROXTON: The lad’s in love.
MARGUERITE: There’s a difference?
TRIBUNE: Small world.
MALONE: Too small.
TRIBUNE: Such small brains, it’s amazing
you’re not extinct already.
ROXTON: Looks like I’ll have to sweep you
off your feet. Let’s go!
MARGUERITE: Seeing how the alternative is
imminent death, you’ve got a date.
ROXTON: An extra rifle. It’s fully loaded.
MARGUERITE: Lord Roxton, someone would
think you cared.
ROXTON: I do.
MALONE: The third guard?
TRIBUNE: Delicious.
CHALLENGER: Save your own life, Roxton.
ROXTON: I once promised to follow you to
hell and back, Challenger; don’t make me a liar.
WARRIOR: Your friends are dead. My father’s dead.
MARGUERITE: What do you want from
us…sympathy?
WARRIOR: No.
VERONICA: Then why are you here?
WARRIOR: Same reason you are; to bring
home the bodies.
