"We went to school together." "What do you want?" "I don't want anything." "I just want to talk to you." "When I saw you on the bus the other day, after all these years, i felt something."

"Sit up." "Sorry." "Takeiteasy." "It'sokay." "I brought food as well." "In case you feel up for it." "Water, food." "Just take it easy, all right." "That's all you're getting today." "Wait!" "Please don't leave me." "I know this is hard." "It's hard for me too." "But it's important to define our relationship." "Establish some boundaries." "This." "This doesn't work." "That's right." "I'll come back tomorrow." "And we'll get started." "He's gonna kill you." "But you know that." "Maybe he'll lose his nerve, huh?" "Chicken out." "Or maybe he'll just get bored." "You're not helping." "He won't even need a gun, Holly." "All he has to do is walk away." "Shut up." "Claire:" "Lookatyou." "You'relettinghim beatyou?" "Thatpathetic littleshit?" "Ifthat'sallittakes, thenmaybeyoudeserve tobein there." "Shut up!" "Are you gonna rape me?" "Seth:" "No." "Kill me?" "I hope not." "You hope not?" "Might not have a choice." "And why's that?" "I might not be able to save you." "What is this, some kind of fucking religious thing?" "Did god tell you to punish all the whores, something like that?" "It's a different kind of saving." " And, no." " So what, you're just a sick fuck?" "This is how you get your kicks?" "I'm not doing this for me." "I'm doing this for you." "Because you're special." "Special?" "It's true." "Before I met you, i was just floating through life." "Like any minute, i could just drift off." "No one would even notice." "Then you came along." "And the thing-- the thing that made it so hard is, is I thought you were different." "You're smart." "Funny." "When you talked to me, you saw me, you really saw me." "That's just what you wanted me to see, huh?" "The version of Holly you are when everyone's watching." "Butwebothknow that'sa lie,don'twe?" "Go to hell." "That's the question."

"What are you gonna do now?" "I'm gonna wait." "Claire:" "Goodgirl." "Seth:" "It'sa realpage-Turner." "You'rea hellof awriter, youknowthat?" "You're a thief." "And now what?" "Suddenly, you got me all figured out." "I wish." "No." "Mostly I just felt sorry for you." "You?" "Felt sorry for me?" "Yeah, it's the part where you talk about love." ""Love is just a label for our biological imperatives."" "I don't know." "Felt ignorant to me." "Are you really gonna lecture me on love, Seth?" "You're keeping a girl in a cage." "I think I finally figured it out." "All these people who talk about love like it's this lightning bolt from the sky." "This irresistible force." "So you think, well, I've never felt that." "Butthosepeople arewrong." "Love is not a lightning bolt." "Love is, real love, takes work." "Sacrifice." "Real love is giving everything you have to someone else." " That's love." " Fucking kidding me?" "You don't think?" ""Love is sacrifice"?" "You know who believes that?" "People who hate themselves." "Whoarealone,depressed." "Justlikeyou." " You think I have myself?" " I know you do." "You hate yourself so much, you can't even imagine how fucked up someone would have to be to love you back." "Soyouconvinceyourself thatloveis thisthing thatyoucanbuy ." "That all you have to do is keep giving." "Well, like I said, i just feel sorry for you." "Spare me the fucking pity," "I'm not the one who's alone here." "Oh, I guess not." "And how is Claire these days?" "What are you talking about?" "You know, sometimes before I open that door," "I can heard you talking in here toClaire." "Thewayyoudo twovoices scaredthehell outofme at first." "You don't know what you're talking about." "I know more than you think." "Isshehere,rightnow?" "No." "She's not real." "You don't think i know that?" "I think you're starting to forget don't get paranoid on me, Eric." "You're no fun when you're paranoid." "Seth:" "You'resick,Holly." "Feedingthatsickness untilallit doesiseat." "You just have it all figured out, don't you?" "Almost." "One thing i still don't understand." "The journal." "First, I get it." "You and Eric getting engaged." "Blah, blah, blah." "But here comes your best friend, Claire." "The real Claire." "Holly can't eat." "Holly can't sleep." "Holly wants to confront them but Holly's too scared." "Fuck you." "Then here." "Here's where it gets really interesting." "Claire:" "Igethome andthere'slike 20messages fromDwayne,right?" "He'slike, "whereareyou?" "Whyhaven'tyou pickedmeup yet?"" "Eventhough, he'stheonewho said that he was coming to get me on Saturday." "You know, somehow of course it's just magically my fault." "Were you going to tell me?" "Tell you what?" "Come on, Claire." "You know." "Um, not really." "Eric." "How'd you find out?" "His email." "He doesn't know i have the password." " Shit - yeah." "Holly, what do you want me to say?" "You know, I'm sorry." "We were so drunk." "And it didn't mean anything." "Oh, well, as long as it didn't mean anything." "Okay, Holly, please slow the car down." "You're unbelievable." " Do you know that?" " I'm sorry." "You have no idea how shitty I feel about this whole thing." "And if it-- damn it, please slow the car down, okay?" "You're supposed to be my best fucking friend." "Holly, come on." "Jesus." "Holly!" "God damn it, you're gonna kill us." "Boom." "Oh, my god." "Oh, my fucking god." "We'reokay." "I'mallright." "  We're gonna be okay, Holly." "We'reokay,Holly." "We're gonna be fine." "We're gonna be okay." "I'm gonna be fine." "And you think that's what?" "A confession?" "I'm a writer, Seth." "Fiction's kindofwhatIdo ." "Seth:" "That'swhyIdidn'tgo straighttothepolice." "Ihadto be sure." "IthoughtI'dfollowyou aroundforafew days, butyoudidn'tmakeme waitlong." "Seth:" "It was a risky move." " Homeless man:" "No!" " Seth:" "Even for you." "Seth:" "Therewereso many." "You want to know what I think?" "I think you wanted to get caught." "That's why you kept the journal." "Youwanted togetpunished." "Lucky you came along ." "You don't get it, do you?" "Thisisn'tpunishment." "I'm trying to save you." "Then do it." "Save me." "I will." "I will." "ImeantwhatIsaid ." "I'mgonnastopyou  hurtingotherpeople." "One way or the other." "And the Oscar goes to..." "He wants to save me." "I have to let him think there's a chance." "So that was all an act?" "Youwerejust humoringhim?" " Playing along..." " If you've got something to say..." "I'm just making sure your head's still in the game." "I don't need another useless pep talk, Claire." "And I don't need you." "Yes?" "What?" "No." "Nothing." "Justwascurious." "Why you did it." "I guess, when I saw Eric's email, all those messages from Claire-- no, not Claire." "I understand that." "It's a crime of passion or whatever." "I wanna know why you didn't stop there." "Whyyoukilledthe others." "'Cause you feel guilty for what you did to Claire, for getting away with it." "Youwantedto getcaught, didn'tyou?" "No, because I could." "Yeah, I don't believe that." "Well, I don't care what you believe." "'Causesee, here'sthething,Seth." "Whensomeonedies infrontof you, thewayClairedied, it's like you're whole world just snaps into focus." "Cry for help?" "It was a way to pass the time." "Don't pretend you know what I am." "You're wrong, i do know you." "I know you from this." "And the girl who wrote this, you had dreams." "She cared about people." "Who'sscaredto be alone." "This is the real you." "Not..." "Seth's got a little crush." "This isn't about us." "If you love something, set it free." "Isn't that how that goes?" "Youknow Ican'tdo that." "Do you know what happens to a great white shark when you put him inside an aquarium?" "It bashes its brains against the glass." "Every time." "Come on." "Stop, Holly, stop!" "Stop, Holly!" "What are you gonna do when you come down here tomorrow and I'm belly up in the tank, huh?" "'Causeyoucan't justwalkaway." "Not with your finger prints all over the place." "I kill myself, your life ends too." "So how's that for the boundaries of our fucking relationship?" " Seth?" " Hmm?" "Finish this up and come see me in my office." "Something wrong?" ""Is something wrong?" That's the question, isn't it?" "I'm not following you." "Thekennelsarefilthy." "We'vegotbugsup inthestockroom." "And where's Seth?" "He's not here, that's for sure." "Nate says you haven't been here in two days." "Mrs. gundy, Nate is hardly" "Nate does his job." "Youshould'vedoneyours." "You're firing me?" "Disciplinary notice." "This goes in your permanent record." "One more strike and you're gone." "Understand?" "Understood." "Thank you." "You don't know how much this means to me." "This,thisis what's gonnahappento you when you think you're in control." "You think you're in control, Holly." "Well, this is what'll happen when you think you're in" "  I control the situation." "There'stheman." "Justdoingsomemaintenance." "Didn't ask." "Hey, Seth." "I got your paycheck." "Still here, huh?" "Where's the rest?" "There is no rest." "This is what happens when you start acting like you're in control." "That's not enough." "You don't get to decide that." "Fuck you." "Fuck me?" "I go through hell for you and what do you do, threaten me?" "Youeverpull thatshitagain," "I'll show you what a real hunger strike feels like." "Fuck you." "I had a dream last night and you were in it." "It was just the two of us." "And we were in this house down by the water." "And I think we'd been living there a long time 'cause there were these pictures on the walls." "Pictures of us." "It was weird looking at them, because something about it felt right." "Like this, this whole world is a dream and that house on the beach, that's reality." "That's how things are supposed to be." "Seth:" "MaybeI cangetyou  somesnacks fromthevendingmachine." "Thanks, Seth." "Holy shit." "There's a light on the wall." "Hey, what's your name?" "Um, I'm Nate." "Listen to me, Nate." "You have to find something to break open this lock." "Can you do that?" "What kind of fucked up..." " Did Seth do this?" " Nate, there's no time for that right now." "Okay, go at it hard, at an angle." "We gotta call somebody, the cops or whatever." "You have to get me out of here right now." "Holly:" "Keepgoing,trynow ." "Nate:" "That'swhatI'mdoing." "Holly:" "No, just..." "Harder." "Nate:" "Thisisallfuckedup." "Okay, that's great."

"Holly:" "Youwoulddo anything tostopthat fromhappening." "Anything at all, no matter what the cost because that's what love is." "Love is sacrifice." "What the fuck?" "You die." "Oh." "Are you stabbing me?" "Motherfucker!" "The block, Seth." "Use the cinder block." "He's moving." "Come on, use it." " I can't." " You have to." "Seth, I can't lose you." " Please?" " Nate:" "Oh, fuck." "Icanfeelmyleg." "What the fuck?" "Somebodyhelpme ." " Oh, my-- come on, do it again." "One more time." "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "Seth."

"Disconnected." "Like it happened to someone else, you know?" "The first time's always the worst." "There is no first time." "It was an accident." " I told you." " You know what always got to me?" "It was the questions." "I remember in the beginning all I could think about was what if she had a pet?" "It'spoorlittledoggie justsittingby thedoor waitingforher tocomehome." "But all that goes away." "The more you think about it the more you remember the parts that you liked." "How it made you feel." "Likeyouwereincontrol ofyourlife fortheveryfirsttime , likenothingcouldhurtyou." "That's not how it was." "But the only problem is that sooner or later it all goes back to normal." "All of a sudden you're nothing special, you're just you." "Stop, okay?" "Holly:" "Andthat'swhenyou  starttowonder." "How far you'd have to go to get that feeling back." "It's not the same." "There is no shame in accepting what you are, Seth." "I did it, to keep us safe." "I had no choice." "Didn't you ever wonder why all the girls in the world but you get a hard on for me?" "Andyouthinkthat's,what , acoincidence?" "You and me, we were born to do this." "Don't act like you know a goddamn thing about me." "I know that a normal person finds a murder confession and goes to the police." "Not to petsmart." "Oh, yeah, "excuse me, officer." "You see that girl over there, the waitress?" "She's Hannibal Lecter." "YouknowhowIknow ?" "Ibrokeintoher apartment andstolehershit."" "Thinkthat'llwork?" "Oh, and so plan b is kidnapping?" "'Cause the fucking alternative was sitting around watching you hurt someone else." "Mm." "Good thing no one got hurt." "I told you..." "I told you." "It's an accident." "Face it, Seth." "This was never about saving lives, you like this." "You like having that kind of power." "Decidingwholives, whodies." "Holly, it's not too late." "I can save you, please." "Please." "I can save you." "Maybe you're not supposed to save me." "Maybe I'm suppose to save you." "Don't, don't." "Seth, please help me, I'm so cold." "Please make me warm." "Can you help me, can you please make me warm?" "I thought you love me." "I do." "I do love you." "Holly." "Holly." "Holly." "I'll come back as soon as I can." " Oh." " Seth." "This is detective Mira." "Something wrong?" "Detective:" "Istheresomewhere wecantalk?" "So, you work with Nathan, yeah?" "Yes." "When's the last time you saw him?" "Wednesday, I think?" "Wednesday evening." "Yeah, he asked me to cover the front while he ran some errands." " What kind of errands?" " Um, he didn't say." "Uh-huh." "And this would be about..." "What time?" "9:00, 10:00." "Something like that." "He leave out through the front?" "Yeah." "The front door, you sure?" "Yeah, why?" "Well, here's the thing." "The front door operates on a keyless entry system." "As you know, it records each instance in or out." "Now you wanna guess the last time someone opened that door?" "4:00." "That's 4:00 am." " Huh." " And you said it was what, 9:00 or 10:00pm?" "It's kind of weird, don't you think?" "No, maybe I'm remembering it wrong." "He could have left out the side door, or loading docks." "Loading docks?" "Oh, sure." "Yeah." "I should check that out." "You and Nathan friends?" "Well, we worked together." "He was a nice guy and all." "Until he tried to get you fired." "What?" "Oh." "That is not what happened." "Nate and i were friends." "Oh, now you're friends again." "Or you were friends, past tense." "That's the second time you said that." "Well, you know what they say." "First time 's confusion, second time's confession." "What's this about?" "Standard procedure." "So now, he asked you to cover for him, this is what Wednesday night, nine or ten?" "Did he say where he was going?" "I think he had to meet someone."
