After Dominic awakens in the van, he tells James that his sleep was a little painful.

My hip kept on bothering me, I had to readjust, Dominic says. I really want to take a shower. Its been a while.

Do we have enough money for a room? James asks, to which Dominic says they do but then quickly shifts his attention to a different topic.

Lets get something to eat first, he tells his brother.

As Dominic has difficulty getting out of the car, he admits in a confessional, Its not very easy to go to sleep in a van on the streets.

Theres always people around, he explains. Other homeless people, addicts, and then we also got to look out for cops. We dont want to get in trouble or you know, have them tell us we cant be here anymore.
