Disappointment Over Bad Eggs in Rations
Major West:
Jones, did you notice while cooking that these eggs were off?
Private Jones:
I-I thought the salt might cover the taste, sir.
Major West:
Get rid of it.
Private Bedford:
What a fuckin disappointment. When I saw those eggs, I thought it was Christmas.
Private Bell:
We'll have eggs again, soon as everything's back to normal.
Corporal Mitchell:
Aw, you muppet. I mean, look at him, oi? He's still waiting for Marks & Spencer to reopen! Listen, mate, you don't know nothing-
Sergeant Farrell: [pauses]
Well, I think Bell's got a point. When you look at the whole life of the planet, we- you know, man- has only been around for a few blinks of an eye. So if the infection wipes us all out- that is a return to normality. That what you meant, Bell?
Private Bell: [Laughter breaks out among the men]
Uh, yeah- yeah.
Major West: [To Jim, Selena, and Hannah; Farrell, aware he is being mocked, scowls and says nothing.]
Have you met our new age sergeant? Our spiritual guru? Tell me, Farrell, why exactly did you join the Army in the first place? This is what I've seen in the four weeks since infection: people killing people. Which is much what I saw in the four weeks before infection, and the four weeks before that, and before that, as far back as I care to remember- people killing people. Which, to my mind, puts us in a state of normality right now.
Selena:
Hannah, you're not eating.
Hannah:
I don't want to eat.
Major West:
You must eat, Hannah.
Hannah:
I don't want to eat. I want to bury my dad. He's one of the people you're talking about.
Sergeant Farrell:
