Male | Teen | Under 3 minutes

EXTRACT: Changed his mind. Came out of the clink a different person. If he goes in again, this time it'll be for years. A cop comes around a lot trying to get him back into the stolen car racket. Nothing more bent than a crooked cop. Dad wants nothing to do with him. He thinks it's a trap that the cop and Mr Irvin have set up for him to get him back into jail. He likes to go down to the rifle range a lot. He gained a funny sense of humour since he was last in the clink.

EXTRACT: Shhhh...Listen. Your mother's footsteps. Pretty heavy for a small woman. You can hear your grannie snoring. Women hate being underground. It scares them. That's why men love being underground. Be away from the women. You should have seen the tunnels we dug in the Snow Mountains. Right through granite like a knife through butter.


Grandma

Female | 50s | Under 3 minutes

EXTRACT: A car backfiring. Where was I? Age. Growing old. [a beat] You must kill me when I get old. Your grandfather was older than me and I had to clean him. Dribbles down his mouth, Earwax. Sleepdust. Urine. Shit. His body was out of control. Vomit. Lots of vomit. Diarrhoea. That's old age. Put a pillow over my face; I won't struggle. No one will know you've done it.
