“Anyways, continue your story” Rick said, scratching his face.

“Alright” Lucas said “Well, so I’m at the party, and its getting pretty awkward, so I go to get a beer from the fridge, but apparently some highschool rejects forgot to bring beer, so they took all mine”.

Rick and Jeff turned towards him and glared at him.

“You drink?” Rick asked with a hint of aggression.

“Just a little bit” Lucas said, a bit nervous.

“that’s not right” Jeff said.

“You drunk now?” Rick asked.

“What? No, the party was last night, and all my beer was stolen, I just said that” Lucas said quickly.

“I don’t know about you, you don’t seem quite right to me” Rick said. Jeff nodded.

“I don’t like it either,  but I sort of want to hear what he has to say” Mike said.

Rick and Jeff backed off. Al continued to look through the cupboards. He did not share any of the band members aggression towards Lucas.

“Continue” Rick said aggressively.

“So, I sort of just wandered around the party, and then these stoners showed up and just made it worse” Lucas said.

“Stupid dope heads” Jeff butted in.

“Well, these hippie stoners sort of mooched of all my weed-” “You a dope head too?!” Jeff interupted again.

“What?! no! I don’t do any other drugs!” Lucas protested.

“Bull, once a dope head, always a dope head, why don’t you go and chew some weed!” Rick shouted.

Rick and Jeff started to close in on Lucas.

“What are you guys doing!? Get away from me!”

Rick and Jeff looked back and forth at each other and then back at Lucas.

“You dope head druggies are nothing but trouble” Jeff said.

“You stay away from my Bro’s! Don’t try making us follow your crap lifestyle!” Rick said.

“Guys, come on, leave him alone” Al called out from the kitchen, finally talking, and actually speaking some sense.

“You trying to drag my bro down into your bad habits!?” Rick demanded at Lucas.

“What? no! What’s your problem!?” Lucas said back.

Rick and Jeff turned their backs on him and walked away. Mike came over to Lucas and spoke in a neutral tone, “Look man, maybe… maybe you should just leave, alright? We don’t really want your kind here, it would be better for the group if you just left”
