...As a disclaimer, just because I borrowed the name and somewhat based the character off of her (>> <<) does not mean that this Tania has any real relevance to our gym leader.

[quote]INT. CAFETERIA. DAY.

An asylum's crowded cafeteria, painted in sterile off-white. Uniformed patients receive their meals and take seats. LILY, 15 with jet black hair, sheepishly receives her plate of gray slop. She finds and approaches a seat next to two people. We also see TANIA, 17 with platinum blonde hair, holding her own tray of food as she stares at Lily. Tania grins, and follows her. Lily sits next to RENEE, 19 with messy brown hair, who is huddled over her food,but not eating it. Across from Renee is BRUCE, 20, a very, very large man, morosely eating his share . DR.STRIPE, a lanky, greasy fellow in a white lab coat calls patients to the Drug Service desk to recieve medication throughout the scene. Tania takes the seat across from Lily, next to Bruce. She sets her food down, but doesn't look at it, instead staring at Lily, who flinches, embarrassed, when she realizes she's being watched.

TANIA

Boo.

LILY

Sorry, I- I didn't see you there...

TANIA

Obviously. I'd ask your name, but I don't really care. Call me Tania, by the way.

Tania yawns, and stretches, slouching over the table. She notices Renee, quietly muttering to herself as she quivers.

RENEE

...Seventeen... Lentil soul, grey lentils, but never quite cooked... Eighteen... No eggs used... Pot of slop... Might be mice. Cheep. Cheep cheep cheep.

TANIA

Oh. Hey. Thanks.

Tania reaches across the table and takes Renee's tray from her, scooting it back towards herself.

RENEE

...Vanished, vanished and gone... Like love like life like yesterdays newspaper, section 17A Senator to approve new...

LILY

Hey, you haven't even eaten yours yet... Give hers back.

TANIA

You want it? Take it, girly.

Tania picks up the plate of slop, and flings it at Lily's face. She is quick to react, and scoots aside letting the slop fall to the floor behind her. Lily follows it with her eyes, and after a second turns back to Tania, who has already flung her own serving of food at Lily. Caught of guard, it strikes her in the face, but bounces off and falls onto the ground. Tania giggles. Lily is aghast.

LILY

You... Y-you-

TANIA

Have good aim? Thanks, babe.

LILY

And now you have nothing to eat! So serves you right.

Tania reaches across the table again, snags Lily's tray from her, and slides it back.

TANIA

You sure, honey? But I wouldn't touch this stuff anyway. I eat new girls like you for breakfast.

DR.STRIPE

Lawson.

Bruce shuffles out of his seat, and moves to the Drug Service desk.

RENEE

Stripe's a- Stripe's a- Stripe's a- Stripe's a-

TANIA

Wonderful doctor, right? Stow it, queen crack-head.

Bruce returns to his seat and continues eating.

TANIA

Besides, Dr.Stripe is the boss here; try not to cross him. Consider that your protip, new girl.

RENEE

Twenty three, there was- LET ME OUT OF HERE YOU SHNOCKWITS- twenty four... Twenty... Twenty nine...

TANIA

Whatever twirls your tutu, hon.

LILY

I shouldn't be here... I'm not crazy, honestly...

TANIA

Duh, chicky. This is a mental asylum; no one here is crazy. Why'd they really put you in?

DR.STRIPE

McCormack.

Renee jumps, and proceeds to the Drug Service window.

LILY

Well... My psychiatrist... Referred me to Dr.Stripe- He... advanced on me, and- when I told on him, he said I was delusional...

Tania giggles. Renee sits down, still quivering.

RENEE

...Thirty five... Thirty six... Thirty... nine... Forty... Forty... seven. Forty... eight... Nine... Ten... Eleven...

Renee falls over onto the table, unconscious.

TANIA

Newsflash, new girl. That's what he DOES. That's what all the doctors do. This place isn't an asylum, it's a whorehouse.

On hearing this, Bruce coughs.

TANIA

Oooh, the boys are no exception. They just get to take it up the-

Bruce pounds his fist onto the table, making a incredible bang, shaking most of the room. Everyone falls silent, except Renee who is jolted awake. She begins to run about, screaming.

RENEE

One hundred! Ninety nine- ninety... Mommy? Eighty something, where's my stash you fuckbag?! Seventy thr- I want my fix! Sixt- Fift- Fort- Motherfucking blast off! Thirty three, twenty two, twenty one and a half... Give me the fucking money! Seventeen, twelve, nine, eight, Dr. Stripe~ seven, six, Stripey, I've been a bad girl, five, four, three, why dont you go FUCK YOURSELF, two, JUST LIKE YOU FUCK, one, EVERY FUCKING PERSON IN-

Dr.Stripe appears behind Renee, holding her, dispensing a syringe's contents into her neck. She falls limp, and two orderlies appear to drag her away.

DR.STRIPE

Such inexcusable behavior, children... I hope you will do better. Please, resume your meals.

Dr.Stripe returns behind the counter.

DR.STRIPE

Schlusser.

TANIA

That's me. Ta-ta for now, girly.

Tania happily hops up and skips to the desk. After an awkward silence, Tania returns. She winks at Lily, and spits out three pills from her mouth.

TANIA

Tongued, baby. Oldest trick in the book.

DR.STRIPE

Silverman.

Lily begins to stand. Tania winks at her again. She timidly makes her way to the desk.

DR.STRIPE

Lily Silverman... Pretty name. Pretty girl. Here you go.

Dr.Stripe hands Lily a small cup with several pills. Lily takes it and begins to walk away.

DR.STRIPE

No, no. Please, do it here.

Lily pauses, turning back to Stripe. She stares at the cup, and quickly tosses it into her mouth, with a grimace. She pretends to swallow, obviously trying to hide the drugs in her mouth.

DR.STRIPE

Mouth open, tongue up.

Lily is forced to comply. Three of the pills rest under her tongue.

DR.STRIPE

...That's unfortunate. Naughty girl, Lily... Very naughty.

Moments later, we see Lily returning to her seat, looking defeated.

BRUCE

Welcome to asylum, "Place of Healing." But patients are sane ones. Little backwards, yes? Only person who is "sick" is Stripe.

LILY

...It's not right...

TANIA

Don't like it? Build a little bridge, and GET OVER IT. You're stuck here, hon. We all are.

BRUCE

She not tell you that she like to take it from Stripe.

Tania jumps up and slaps Bruce.

TANIA

DO NOT talk about me like that, or God help me I'll make your life more of a living hell than Stripe ever could! And you-

Suddenly, Bruce picks up his tray and bashes Tania in the face with it. She is knocked onto the floor. He stands, towering over her.

TANIA

Y-you... You'll be locked in Solitary Confinement for weeks, I'll-

BRUCE

You cry to Stripe, who console you in all wrong ways. You get fill, and you forget all this. That is why you stay here. Because you know no person on outside would ever TOUCH you or your vile, acidic being. And when you done, you will hop about, giggle like school-slut, because you are ONLY one that belong here!

Bruce raises his fist, nearly the size of Tania's head, ready to beat her into the ground. Suddenly, Lily stands and places herself between Bruce and Tania.

LILY

Stop it! Stop hurting every-

Bruce strikes. Lily intercepts the blow. She is knocked over Tania. Stripe appears behind Bruce, beginning to inject him as well. Bruce is phased but still conscious. Panicked, Stripe prepares a second shot as Bruce lumbers around, lifting him off the ground and choking him. Stripe drops several syringes, but Tania catches them, climbing to her feet. She stabs Bruce in the back with one of them. Lily also manages to her feet, shaking, blood trickling down her face.

LILY

STOP IT!

Tania stabs a third syringe into Bruce's back. He begins to weaken. She moves to inject a fourth, but Lily grabs her, trying to restrain her. Tania gets the upperhand, and pins Lily to the ground. Behind her, Bruce finally collapses, as Dr.Stripe struggles to regain his breath. Tania wrestles Lily into a submissive position.Lily screams, as Tania breathes heavily, grinning.

Tania

Anyone... You'll do... Suffer, please.

Tania begins to inject the last syrninge into Lily's neck. Dr.Stripe appears over Tania.

LILY

...Why...?

DR.STRIPE

Well done, my pet.

TANIA

Why? Because, Schadenfreude's my middle name, girly. Welcome to the asylum.

Tania leans over, kissing Lily on the forehead. Lily's eyes begin to close...
