Montag: Willy! What are you doing? This is crazy!
Piggy: he’s right it’s not worth it come back here!
Willy: I can’t it’s just too much! I can’t take any more of this!
Piggy: well just come back and we can talk this out.
Montag: he’s right Willy, whatever is bothering you I’m sure we can fix this just come away from the edge and we can work this out.
Willy: you don’t understand, neither of you! You don’t get it!
Montag: get what!
Willy: what its like to put so much effort and love into your family and get nothing in return!
Piggy: we don’t get it?!
Montag: all of us have had family troubles but we learn to live with it we find ways to deal! And they don’t include hanging over the edge of a building! Now get down.
Willy: I cant do it anymore! I wake up in the morning and nothing! Not a good morning from my boys or even a good night I love you dad!
Montag: will you still have a wife who loves and cares about you!
Piggy: yeah
Montag: me on the other hand… my wife cares more about her television shows than she does me! It’s like living with a stranger half the time.
Willy: I guess your right… but I’ve made too many mistakes with wife
Piggy: what did you do?
Willy: I was never really there for her. Always away at work, making her mend her stocking rather than just buy her new ones.
Montag: willy that doesn’t sound that horrible im sure she loves you and knows everything you’ve done was for her and the boys
Willy: that’s not all….
Piggy : what else…?
Willy: well a while ago on a trip to boston, back while the boys were in still in school I had an affair…
Montag: willy how long did this last?
Willy: a couple months she was a secretary for a buyer… I was lonely
Piggy: does linda know? Or any of the boys?
Willy: no linda and happy don’t know, biff does he came up to surprise me one weekend and she was there.
Montag: that’s horrible but linda doesn’t have to know and you can continue living happly you don’t have to do this.
Willy: it’s the only way to escape it all! I had a happy loving family but that’s gone now! And there is no way to get it back
Piggy: don’t talk to me about loosing your family! I had a family we were happy! Then that was taken from me! But you know what? You learn to roll with the punches, no its not easy at first but life goes on! This is no reason to be staring down the side of a twenty story building
Willy: but I have no chance of finding more family im too old that time has passed! Its too late
Montag: its never too late! I lost mildred to her tv family but I found another place to call home! And when that got bad I found another place its not hard you just need to be willing to look!
Willy: im not like you Montag! I cant just jump from people to people and call them my family! There needs to be something more than that for me.
Piggy: willy its not easy! But it can happen! You shouldn’t just give up, keep looking and you can find family. I did! I was stranded on an island! With very little chance of survival and instead of possibly dying alone I reached out and found people to call my family!
Montag: Willy stop being crazy and just get off the ledge. We can talk about this
Piggy: hes right willy just come back over here we can get help you can sit down and talk to linda and the boys it will all work out just don’t do anything stupid.
Willy: none of that matters anymore! Its too late to fix it…
Montag: Willy! Don’t! Piggy!, grab him!
Willy: tell linda I love her
