EXTRACT: Nod. Smile. Metal hand rail. She ascends. I descend. Metal hand-rail. Her shoes clack clack stumble on the staircase above me. The door swings. Sound of the crowd breathes out, in. Another staircase. Cold walls make the stairwell cold. I'm frightened. I'm drunk. There's the door to the ladies toilets. I'm inside. I'm frightened. Tom, why am I frightened?
