Sample dialogue
It's that kind of mentality that allows this cancer-producing industry to thrive. Of course we're all going to die someday, but do we have to pay for it? Do we have to actually throw hard-earned dollars on a counter and say, "Please, please, Mister Merchant of Death, sir; please sell me something that will give me bad breath, stink up my clothes, and fry my lungs."
scene 20 — INT: CONVENIENCE STORE. DAYAre you sure?
scene 18 — INT: CONVENIENCE STORE. DAYThat's your lung. By this time, your lung looks like this.
scene 18 — INT: CONVENIENCE STORE. DAYNo, I think I'll drink it in here, thanks.
scene 18 — INT: CONVENIENCE STORE. DAYYou want me to leave? Why? Because somebody is telling it like it is? Somebody's giving these fine people a wake-up call?!
scene 20 — INT: CONVENIENCE STORE. DAY

The ones in this town, yes! You encourage their growth, their habit. You're the source in this area, and we're going to shut you down for good! For good, cancer- merchant!
