Heroics
The film begins with a group of guys finishing a game of basketball. In the locker room, there is some roughhousing between Crim and Stanley that causes Crim to go into a homophobic outburst. During the communal shower, most of the other guys try to calm down Crim but their efforts lead to nothing. After the shower, Crim ends up going home in a visibly upset mood. All this time, D who has been living with Crim for several years remains silent.

When D goes home he sees Crim sitting on the couch still disturbed by what happened in the locker room. D remains quiet and goes through some mail on a table which also has framed photographs of Crim with his wife and kids. D asks Crim if he picked up the pizza. Crim shakes his head. D ends up making dinner for both of them which is a salad of sliced peppers and microwaved chicken. During dinner there is tense silence between the two men.
