Liz Torres: Mahalia Sanchez

Quotes 

• John : Goodnight, good morning, whatever it is.

  Mahalia : It's morning. You'll know when you get outside. All the condoms, crack bottles, and hypodermic needles are glistening in the morning dew. The crime scene banners are flapping in the breeze while the scent of the sewage treatment plant is wafting across the river.

  John : Still taking that creative writing course, huh?

• Gene : Look who's here, it's Dion!

  Mahalia : That's not Dion. Dion is dead! He choked on his own vomit.

  Gene : No, he went down in a small plane.

  Mahalia : No, wait, wait! He drowned in a bathtub in Paris.

  Dion : I'm not dead, sweetheart, I'm right here.
