[Cuts to Charlie looking exasperated with another of Adam's sexist rants of women and his masculinity.]

Adam:" When you take her out for the fifth time and she still expects you to pay the check but you're like, (high pitched voice) "Hey, I thought you wanted equality.""

Charlie: "NO! our shared problem of overpopulation in Hell!"

Adam: "OH, well that's not a problem! We got that covered! (turning to Lute) Lute, how many demons did you kill this year?"

Lute: "Got a good 275 this year, sir."

Adam: "275? Woah! Badass! Awesome job, danger tits! Pound it."

[Adam raises a fist for Lute to make a fist-bump, which she did.]

Charlie: "Uh no, not awesome. Those are my people; you know that right?"

Adam: "Oh yeah. That must suck for you! *Bursts into laughter*"

Charlie: "But these are souls...Humans souls just the same as the ones you have up in heaven."

Lute: "(coldly) They're not the same. They had their chance and they earned damnation."

Charlie: "You're wrong. Sinners made mistakes, sure, but everyone makes mistakes."

Lute: "Angels don't make mistakes."

Charlie: "You really think that."

Lute: "I know that."

Adam: "Yeah, I've never made a mistake in my fuckin' life."

[As Lute comes around the table, the scene turns slightly darker with ominous red.]

Lute: "The only reason you're still here is because daddy gave you and your hellborn kind a pardon from an exorcist blade. How does that feel, to know how little you matter?"

Adam: "Oops, almost out of time. Guess we should get into it."

Charlie: "Oh fuck!"

[Charlie rushes to present her plan as fast as she could.]

Charlie: "Okay I've got a lot to get through and not a lot of time and I feel like you weren't hearing me before so here it goes."

[Charlie coughs as she starts making a fast-talk, which is close to singing as she gets all of her stuff out in the table to show them what she means.]

Charlie: "♫ I know population is out of control. ♫"

"♫ It's a bad situation. ♫"

"♫ It's taking a toll. ♫"

"♫ If we rehab these . ♫"

"♫ And cleanse all their souls. ♫"

"♫ At my —♫"

[Charlie rambles through the stacks of paper to get something.]

Charlie: "Wait, I'm getting ahead of myself!"

"♫ Right! ! ♫"

"♫ I know you guys fly down. ♫"

"♫ Just to kill once a year. ♫"

"♫ And it must be annoying. ♫"

"♫ To schlep all the way here. ♫"

"♫ If they join you in Heaven. ♫"
