== Synopsis ==

A guy (Jerry Liebowitz?) is being treated by an allergist in Santa

Monica weekly. He's working 16-17 hour days, is stressed. As he

parks for an appointment a physician in a Mercedes parks so close to

him he can't open his door. The physician just walks away, making

Jerry mad, so he keys his car. The weeks after that he perpetrates

petty vandalism on the car: dirty boots from the trash, chattering

teeth from Toys-R-Us, a stack of pancakes…

8:40: Larry tells Joe about a flight: a 'loud Long Island woman' who

talks a lot and a passenger who sits in the wrong seat and reacts

angrily to the stewardess when she asks him to move. Larry recites

the poem he wrote about the angry guy. Joe likes it.

16:50: We're back to Jerry vandalizing the physician's Mercedes, this

time with a chess board, a cake, and rotten sardines.

21:40: A guy (Jack Cheeseborough?<ref>He tells the 'joke' at the

beginning of [[Evening Sky]], has a credit in [[Green Cadillac]],

which is also set in Washington DC</ref>) who lives on 15th & T NW

Washington DC loves his dogs. The mailman fears them, accuses Jack of

siccing one of them (Lucky) on him. Lucky had already bit an old man,

so an additional report could endanger him. Jack gets so worked up he

puts his violent pit bull mix (Blackie) in the mailman's truck; the

dog bites the mailman's face; Jack thinks the dog could have killed

him.<ref>The references to DC's streets and neighborhoods are

accurate, especially Caroline Street, a 1-block street inside T & U,

15th & 16th - I had to find it on a map. I used to live there.</ref>

38:10: A street person (preacher?) (Moses Stone?), apparently also in

Washington DC talks disconnectedly, with Biblical references.

45:00: Jerry Liebowitz recounts not-paying his Continental Cable bill,

which involves eating grapes.

48:40: Larry tells Joe about his latest difficulties with Zachary.

(Larry calls him 'a 15-year-old arrogant bastard'.) Zachary can't

remember to ask for a new Metro card at school, cuts detention,

dropped Spanish class.

51:40: Zachary tells Joe his side of the story.

56:40: A guy (Jack Cheeseborough?) tells Joe about raising hell at

Disneyland when he was 19 or 20. He yells to people in a people-mover

car (a sky tram) that their cable is breaking.

*Guy on the phone has allergies and needs weekly doctor visits to receive his shots. He keys a doctor's car for parking too close, then week after week he keeps tampering with the car.

Line 84:

*Zachary's rebuttal to Larry's complaints. We hear Larry arguing with him in the background, then Larry takes the phone and we hear Zak arguing in the background. The argument escalates while Joe listens.

*Another guy on the phone: scaring people at Disneyland.
