Scene 3: One of the Gang or a Gang of One?
Narrator: It’s Wednesday afternoon after classes. Alex is sitting on the couch in their dorm
room, flipping through channels on T.V. when Casey enters the room.
Casey: Hey, Alex! You ready?!
Alex: Ready? For what?
Casey: Uh, hello… the intramural B-ball championships! I heard the other team’s two best players won’t
be able to play in the nals, which means we’re denitely gonna win tomorrow night! I’ve even
chosen the bar where we’re going to celebrate afterwards. Why aren’t you more pumped?
Alex: I would be, but my knee has really been bothering me since last week’s game, and I don’t
know if I can play. The ibuprofen I’ve been taking does absolutely nothing!
Casey: Well, then take more, we need you!
Alex: I’m already taking the maximum amount recommended on the drug label.
Casey: (Casey roots around in a desk drawer and pulls out a prescription bottle.) Here, then take one of these
(handing the bottle to Alex). It’s Vicodin – I have some leftover from when I got my wisdom teeth out last summer.
I didn’t need all of them. Trust me, they are amazing – your knee won’t hurt a bit after popping one of these!
Alex: (Alex does not reach out to take the pills.) But, that’s your prescription...
Casey: And your point is?... I mean, you borrowed my laptop earlier.
What’s the problem? We’re roommates – we share, that’s what we do!
Alex: This is different, it doesn’t feel right. It’s almost like drug abuse. I don’t even think it’s legal, and the last
thing I want to risk is something like a felony on my record. I’ve also heard stories of how that stuff can
make you feel weird and really mess you up. I just don’t want to risk having a bad reaction to it.
Casey: (Sarcastically) A felony, seriously? No one will ever know you took it! And why would you
have a bad reaction? I thought you took Vicodin last year when you broke your arm.
Alex: Yeah, I did.
Casey: Any problems then?
Alex: Problems? Nooo…
Casey: Well good, here. (Casey extends his open palm again, offering the Vicodin.) I just think it’s stupid for you to
miss the big game tomorrow when you don’t have to. Look, everybody takes these drugs, it’s no big deal.
Alex: Listen, I appreciate the offer to help, but I’m not gonna take it. Even if you don’t think it’s a big deal, there’s more to
it than whether or not I can play in the game, so I’m not going to risk it. But thanks for looking out for me. I’ll stop
by the student health center tomorrow and see what they think. Maybe they can tape it up for me or something.
Casey: Ok, whatever, as long as you’ll be good-to-go tomorrow.
