[after Mundt has killed two officers and supernaturally lit the hallways on fire, he returns back to Barton's room now as Charlie; as he enters, he puts the shotgun up on the door frame]

Charlie Meadows:
Barton. Brother, is it hot. How you been, buddy?
[Barton's too terrified to speak]

Charlie Meadows:
Well, don't go looking at me like that. It's just me... Charlie.
Barton Fink:
I hear these days it's Mundt. Madman Mundt.
Charlie Meadows:
Jesus, people can be cruel. If it's not my build, it's my personality.
[beat]

Charlie Meadows:
They say I'm a madman, Bart, but I'm not mad at anyone. Honest, I'm not. Most guys I just feel sorry for. It tears me up inside to think about what they're going through, how trapped they are. I understand it. I feel for them. So I try and help them out.
[dabs at his sweating face with a handkerchief]

Charlie Meadows:
Jesus.
Barton Fink:
Yeah.
Charlie Meadows:
Yeah. I know what it feels like when things get all balled up at the head office. They put you though Hell, Barton. So I help people out. I just wish someone would do as much for me.
[dabs again at his sweating face]

Charlie Meadows:
Jesus, it's hot. Sometimes it gets so hot, I want to crawl right out of my skin.
Barton Fink:
But, Charlie, why me? Why --?
Charlie Meadows:
[as Mundt]
Because you DON'T LISTEN!
[reverts back to Charlie persona]

Charlie Meadows:
Jesus. I'm dripping again.
[dabs at himself again]

Charlie Meadows:
Come on, Barton. You think you know pain? You think I made your life Hell? Look around this dump. You're just a tourist with a typewriter. I *live* here. Don't you understand that? And you come into my home... and you complain... that I'm making too much noise.
Barton Fink:
I'm sorry.
Charlie Meadows:
Don't be. I'll be in the next door if you need me.
[starts to leave]

Charlie Meadows:
Oh... I dropped in on your folks in New York. And Uncle Maury. Good people. By the way, that package I gave you? I lied. It isn't mine.
