When Krusten see the gangster leave she breathes a sigh of relief saying, "Thank goodness! I thought it would be like a boxing match on vomit."
Then she nudges Candy and whispers, "Did you see how she moved closer to that guy we met earlier tonight, so strange!"
As the gang member exits the bus, Malcolm says in Spanish [Have a good evening and stay out of trouble.]
Having already moved so that the gang member could get off the bus, Malcolm stays put opposite the door, as George moves to assist the drunk man. When the drunk has left his seat, Malcolm once again surveys the bus.
Finding a couple of discarded shopping bags in another seat, Malcolm returns to Vomit Row. Taking the extra large shirt in both hands he rips the shirt down the seam. With two of the plastic bags he makes some makeshift gloves. Carefully he begins cleaning up the floor and the seat and finishes up by wiping down the wall.
With things better than they were before, Malcolm takes out a larger bag from his pocket and puts the shirt, vomit, and make shift gloves into it. Carefully tieing it off, Malcolm moves back to the front of the bus and deposits everything into the waste basket near the driver.
When the driver looks at him, Malcolm says casually, "It needs be cleaned back on row 12. Drunk vomited and made a mess. Its a little better back there now, but not by much."
Malcolm takes a seat near the front, curious to see what the woman who had tried to get close to George before he offed assistance will do once George has returned. The woman wasn't with George when Malcolm got on the bus. Certainly something worth paying attention to.
Candy elbows Krusten, "Look, look, he is trying to clean up the bus too! Who does that? Is this guy like prince charming that he should be handsome, brave and thoughtful all in one? Nah, something must be up. When they're that good they're usually gay."
Krusten laughs at Candy's deduction about the guy being gay just because he is doing the right things. "Where did you get that from?" She asks while laughing some more. "You could go over there and ask him, just look out for the vomit."
Krusten smiles when she hears what George says and comments to Candy, "Can't blame him, if I were a guy I probably wouldn't be interested either! I mean look at how she is 'selling' herself, its as if she's a clown." She chuckles.
George relocates and Malcolm watches as the Lady of the Night gets up to follow him. As Malcolm passes where George is now seated, "Thanks for helping the old man from the bus. If you want my seat up front, it will be available for the rest of the trip home."
Malcolm continues his way to intercept the Lady of the Night. He smiles as he passes the pair of ladies who have been speaking in hushed tones since the got on.
Taking a seat near the Lady, he begins a conversation with her. When she goes to make advances to sell herself, Malcolm pulls a necklace from his shirt, shows her something, then puts it away. The Lady gets real nervous and starts moving quickly to leave her seat, until Malcolm calms her down in conversation. The conversation continues the duration of the bus ride to Malcolm's stop.
