You are the quintessential tornado, now, aren't you?
What do you want, Caleb?
I wanted to make sure you were alright after you concocted your brief little display of disinterest in our mutual friend.
I'm not interested in him and it has nothing to do with you.
Bridget, if you're trying to protect him by pretending not to be interested, you've already failed.
Why don't you just leave me alone?
Why don't you bring him along to our next meeting? Then you can show me how much you don't love him. Do you think I'm stupid? I know what you're doing.
You know nothing about me.
On the contrary, my dear princess. I know precisely the difference between giving you ecstasy and hastening your death. I try not to forget the numbers. Sometimes they get mixed up.
Did you just threaten me?
I have no reason to do that.
Sure you do.
What would that be?
Kicks. Your own amusement.
Yes, that's important, isn't it?
Not to me.
Well then let's try something different. You want to save your friend? Protect him any way you can. And be a little more subtle about it. Having him move in to soothe your fear of the dark won't save you any more that your lies will save Ben's life. Don't forget how suggestible he can be.
Leave him alone.
There's the princess we all know and love.
You don't love me.
Oh, but I do.
Prove it by leaving me alone.
That isn't as much fun, Bridget. So I'll be in town on Monday and I'll see you around nine. Yes?
Fine.
Pardon me? I couldn't hear you.
FINE.
I could hear you, I was just making sure you heard me. I'll make sure you're carried out with your hearing aids this time.
Fuck you.
I heard that too, Bridget.
