" Yeah, I had the shots and the painkillers." " What dog?" "Where?" " Look, I'm seeing things that don't make any sense... and I'm meeting people that are supposed to be dead... and Beth's had a nervous breakdown." "The kid I'm treating knows what's gonna happen before it happens." " Okay, just slow down." " And I saw the same boy lose the same balloon twice." " Baby, you're not making any sense." " No, nothing makes any sense." " You're scaring me." " Nothing makes any sense." "Okay." "You just need to relax." "Slow down." " Okay." " Hey, you need to sleep." "Yeah." "No, I can't."

"I've seen the, uh, scars on her wrists." "Did you save her?" "[Cigarette Lighter Lights]" "She saved herself." "Yeah, but you helped, right?" "No." "Sometimes suicide is an attempt for attention." "With Lila it wasn't." "She put three four-inch vertical slits in each wrist." "She split both sets of ulnar and radial arteries." "By the time I got to her, she'd lost five pints of blood." "I just pulled her out of the bathtub, put tourniquets on both arms... and called an ambulance." "Aren't you afraid she's gonna do it again?" "No." "Why?" "'Cause she loves me." "If she were here, I know she'd say... to open your eyes a little wider." "I know she'd tell you that there's too much beauty to quit." "She's probably right." "Anyway... it's too late." "Henry?" "I can't let you leave this time." "You gotta stay with me." "I gotta take you uptown to meet this" " Get the fuck outta my way." " No, you gotta come with me to the" " Get outta my way, all right?"

"No." "No." " [Velcro Peels Apart]" " I'm a psychiatrist." "See?" "A psychiatrist, huh?" "So you could write a Xanax prescription."

" A goodly one... in which there are many confines, wards and dungeons." "Denmark being one of the worst." "[Man] We think not so, my lord." "Well, then 'tis none to you, for there is nothing either good or bad... but thinking makes it so." "To me, it is a prison." " Prison, my lord?" " Denmark's a prison." " We already had this conversation." " Oh, um, uh, wait a minute." "Uh, um  "Why then your ambition"" " Why then your ambition makes it one." "'Tis too narrow for your mind." "I could be bounded in a nutshell... and count myself a king of infinite space... were it not that I have bad dreams." " That's my favorite line in the whole play." " It's a good line." "However, my favorite line of the play is:" ""O what a rogue and peasant slave am I."" "I have no idea what any of it means, but I love the word "slave."" "I love it." "I gotta go."

"That's a bit narrow-minded of you, isn't it?" "This is the lesbian Hamlet." "All the parts are played by women." " Oh." " I'm joking." "I'm Ophelia." "I just get so sick of playing her." "Things get tough, she jumps in the drink." "Hamlet hogs all the good lines." "Well, he's notorious for that." "We've met before, haven't we?" "No, I don't think so." "I'm Sam Foster." " Athena." " Hi." "Hi." "Are you joining the class?" "No." "I've been looking for you, as a matter of fact." "That's flattering." "Why?"

" You served him coffee in a diner a couple of times." "You were nice to him." "But the way he tells it, you're the one good thing... that ever happened to him." "Henry." "Is he very pale, very thin?" " His arms are scarred." " Yeah, that's him." "He always ate pecan pie with his coffee." "I remember that." "But I never spoke to him outside the diner." " Oh." " Except" "Yeah?" "What?" "I feel really stupid saying this stuff to a psychiatrist." " You'll think I'm insane." " No." "I had the strangest feeling about him." "I mean, he's this ragged-looking guy." "Probably hasn't bathed in months, but something about him." "I'd seen him before." "Somewhere." "I'd known him." " Yeah." " What's wrong with him?" "He's going to kill himself." "Why?" "He thinks he's done something terrible." "That's my guess anyway." "I wish there was something I could do to help." "Actually, this probably won't help, but I did run into him one time at A. Smith's." " A. Smith's?" " The art bookstore?" "He was sitting in the back, reading." "I don't know." "Maybe he hangs out there." " Where is it?" " Nearby." "Come on." "I'll show you." "[Indistinct Voices]" "Athena?" "Athena?" "Athena!" "Athena?" "Athena!" "Athena!"
