The only guy who is present with the Dude in the presence of the Stranger
and the only other person who the stranger speaks to.
He has 4 lines the last one being "Sorry to hear about Donny."
To which the Dude answers by quoting the first conversation with
the stranger
DUDE
Yeah. Well, you know, sometimes you
eat the bear, and, uh.
"Tumbling Tumbleweeds" has come up on the jukebox, and The
Stranger ambles up to the bar.
THE STRANGER

Dude speaks to Gary one more time and does not receive a reply
DUDE
