Godot starts eating the pint of ice cream.

JOHNNY

I thought you were lactose intolerant.

GODOT

Between mouthfuls of frozen dairy.

I am...it’s the only food I can afford.

He grabs his side and winces.

Oh no! It’s starting!

JOHNNY

Panicked

How do I get out of here?

GODOT

Cringing as he continues to shovel ice cream into his mouth. He points.

There! Turn down that alley and run over to Hope Street. Go now! Before it’s too late!

JOHNNY

How can I ever thank you?

GODOT

Tell my story!

Godot collapses. Johnny looks around and runs off stage.
