Note: Murray pronounced as Murr-aaayyy

Murray: “Well that was quite an entrance”

*audience laughs*

Murray: “you okay?”

Joker: “yeah. This is exactly how I imagined it.”

Murray: “Well that makes one of us.”

*audience laughs*

Murray: “So can you tell us about this look. When we spoke earlier you mentioned that this look is not a political statement. Is that right?”

Joker: “That’s right Murray, I’m not political *in bad Murray impression* I’m just trying to make people laugh”

Murray: “And how’s that going for ya?”

*Joker does signature laugh*

Murray: “So I know you’re a comedian. Have you been working on any new material? Do you wanna tell us a joke?”

Joker: “Ok.” *pulls out joke book*

Murray: “You’ve got a book. A book of jokes.”

*Joker looks through book*

Murray: “Take your time. We got all night.”

Joker: “Ok, ok. Here’s one.” *pauses and smacks lips* “Knock Knock.”

Murray: “And you had to look that up?”

*audience laughs*

Joker: “I wanna get it right… Knock Knock”

Murray: “Who’s there?”

Joker: “It’s the police ma’am, your son has been hit by a drunk driver, he’s dead” *laughs*

*Trombone Noises*

Sally: “Ahhhh! No, no, no, — You can not joke about that.”

Murray: “Yeah, that’s not funny, Arthur, that’s not the kind of humor we do on this show.”

Joker: “Okay, I’m s-yeah I’m sorry. It’s just ya know, *clenches teeth* it’s been a rough few weeks, Murray. *laughs* Ever since I… I killed those wall street guys.”

*Audience Gasps*

Murray: “Okay, I’m waiting for the punchline.”

Joker: “There is no punchline. *pauses* It’s not a joke.”

*Audience Gasps*

Murray: “you’re serious aren’t you, you’re telling us you killed those 3 young men on the subway?”

Joker: “Mhmm”

Murray: “And why should we believe you?”

Joker: “I got nothing left to lose. Nothing can hurt me anymore. *chuckles* Mah life, is nothing but a comedy.”

*Audience Gasps AGAIN*

Murray: “Lemme get this straight, you think killing those guys is funny?”

Joker: “I do. And I’m tired of pretending it’s not. Comedy is subjective, Murray. Isn’t that what they say. All of you, this system that knows so much, you decide what’s right or wrong, the same way that you decide what’s *points to self* funnahh or *points to Murray* NOT.”

*Audience Gasps AGAIN*

Murray: “Oh ok, I think I-I might understand that you did this to start a movement? To become a symbol?”

Joker: “Come on Murray *chuckling* do I look like the kind of clown that could start a movement? I killed those guys because they were AWFUL. Everybody is awful these days. It’s enough to make anyone crazy.”

Murray: “Ok so that’s it, you’re crazy, that’s your defense for killing 3 young men?”

Joker: “No. They couldn’t carry a tune to save their lives.

*Audience Boos*

Joker: “Ugh, why is everyone so upset about these guys? *choked up* If it was me dying on the sidewalk you’d walk right over me. I pass you every day and you don’t notice me, but these guys, what because Thomas Wayne went and cried about them on TV?

Murray: “You have a problem with Thomas Wayne?”

Joker: “Yes I do. Have you seen what it’s like out there Murray? Do you ever actually leave the studio. Everybody just yells and screams at each other. Nobody’s civil anymore! Nobody thinks what it’s like to be the other guy. *nearly seething* You think men like Thomas Wayne ever think what it’s like to be someone like me? To be somebody but themselves? They don’t. They think that we’ll just sit there and take it like good little boys. That we won’t werewolf and go wild.”

Murray: “Ya finished? I mean, there’s so much self-pity Arthur, you sound like you’re making excuses for killing those young men, not everybody, and I’ll tell you this, not everyone is awful.”

Joker: *Quietly seething* “You’re awful Murray.”

Murray: “Me? I’m awful?” Oh yeah, how am I awful?”

Joker: “Playing my video, inviting me on the show… you just wanted to make fun of me. You’re just like the rest of them”

Murray: “You don’t know the first thing about me pal. Look what happened because of what you did, what it led to. There are riots out there, *Joker laughs and nods a lot* two policemen are in critical condition and you’re laughing, you’re laughing. Someone was killed today because of what you did.”

Joker: “I know. *pauses and smiles* How about another joke Murray?”

Murray: “No, I think we’ve had enough of your jokes.”

Joker: “What do you get, (Murray: “I don’t think so”) when you cross (Murray: “I think we’re done here”) a mentally ill loner with a Society that abandons him and TREATS HIM LIKE TRASH!

Murray: “You call the police!”

Joker: “I’ll tell you what you get. You get what you fucking deserve!!”*pulls out a gun and shoots Murray*

Murray: *Dies*
