[Tyler and Narrator stop outside a convenience store at night. Tyler takes out a gun and walks into the store to do their homework assignment of a "human sacrifice", while Narrator protests. Tyler forces the clerk out the back exit at gun point.] Voice-over: On a long enough timeline the survival rate for everybody drops to zero. Narrator: Stop! What are we doing? Come on! God! Tyler Durden: Hands behind your back. Give me your wallet. [The clerk, now kneeling, hands him his wallet.] Tyler Durden: Raymond K. Hessel. 1320 South East spanning apartment A. Small cramped basement apartment, Raymond? Raymond K. Hessel: How did you know? Tyler Durden: 'Cause they give shitty basement apartments letters instead of numbers. Raymond, you are going to die. [Raymond begins to cry. Tyler examines content of the wallet.] Tyler Durden: Is that your mom and dad? Mom and Dad are going to have to call up kindly Doctor So-and-so. Pick up your dental records. Wanna know why? Because there's gonna be nothing left of your face. Narrator: Oh come on, come on. Tyler Durden: An expired community college student ID. What did you study, Raymond? Raymond K. Hessel: S-stuff. Tyler Durden: Stuff? Were the mid-terms hard? I asked you what you studied! Raymond K. Hessel: Biology mostly. Tyler Durden: Why? Raymond K. Hessel: I don't know. Tyler Durden: What did you wanna be, Raymond K. Hessel? The question, Raymond! Was "What did you want to be"?! Narrator: Answer him, Raymond! Jesus! Raymond K. Hessel: Veterinarian, veterinarian. Tyler Durden: Animals. Raymond K. Hessel: Yeah animals and stuff. Tyler Durden: And stuff, yeah I got that. That means you have to get more schooling. Raymond K. Hessel: Too much school. Tyler Durden: Would you rather be dead? Would you rather die? Here, on your knees in the back of a convenience store? Raymond K. Hessel: No, please no! [Tyler takes his gun down, takes out Raymond's driver's license throwing the wallet in front of Raymond.] Tyler Durden: I'm keeping your license. I'm gonna check in on you. I know where you live. If you're not on your way to becoming a veterinarian in six weeks, you will be dead. Now run on home. [Raymond gets up and runs into the night.] Tyler Durden: Run Forrest, run! Narrator: I feel ill. Tyler Durden: Imagine how he feels. Narrator: Come on, this isn't funny! That wasn't funny. What the fuck was the point of that?! Tyler Durden: Tomorrow will be the most beautiful day of Raymond K. Hessel's life. His breakfast will taste better than any meal you and I have ever tasted. Voice-over: You had to give it to him. He had a plan. And it started to make sense in a Tyler sort of way. No fear, no distractions. The ability to let that which does not matter truly slide. [Tyler throws gun to Narrator who opens the cylinder to find no bullets inside.]
