"Are you really going to call her?" "What?" "You run by my house everyday, too." "You know, i got an anonymous love letter." "It talked about how i'm not just an athlete." "How i'm different, but no one sees it." "That i'm misunderstood." "Well, you know what?" "It's wrong." "And i hope whoever wrote that letter understands and realizes to stay away from my friends." "I'll see you around." "You're wrong." "You're talented." "You are different." "You're an artist." "Did you pick that out of the trash?" "Just stop, please." "Crushes suck, huh?" "It's good to be realistic." "You can't wait around on someone." "You might miss the real thing." "I'm going to go open up the store." "Oh, my God." "That was excruciating." "Don't say anything, please." "I mean, you don't know what it's like." "What?" "I do." "A little bit." "Who?" "Can you just forgive me for this, please." "You're my best friend." "You stupid bitch." "Hey." "What are you doing here?" "I don't know." "I was just watching you." "For how long." "Mmm, long enough." "Can i... can i make a confession?" "I hired you because i thought you were cute." "Is that sexist?" "Um, yeah." "Yeah, it kind of is." "That's okay." "Scott!" "Yeah, no, I'm fine." "I'm fine." "You're not fine." "You don't have your brace." "You don't have a spotter." "No, that had nothing to do with it." "It has everything to do with it." "I thought i..." "I honestly don't know what happened." "It's good, Coach, it's good." "Solid, there's nothing wrong." "I'm sorry, son." "What do you mean you're sorry?" "Go home." "I promised your dad." "I know you heard." "Coach Evans called." "You don't even come to my games." "You have no right to strike a deal with him, or to judge how hurt i am." "I don't want you running for awhile." "Soccer isn't the only thing you're good at." "What else am i good at, dad?" "You're smart, Scott." "Whether you know it or not." "Your mom and i both think so." "You want to talk about mom, then let's really talk about her." "She left us both, dad." "What?" "Jules!" "Jules!" "What the hell is wrong with you?" "Do you even know what you're doing?" "Sometimes i... i just can't help myself." "A normal person doesn't act like this." "Can you get that into your head?" "Don't talk to her that way." "Stop, Jeffrey." "Yeah, stay out of this." "You don't get it." "I get that she's better than that bitch, Jules." "Jeffrey." "Just get out!" "Now!" "Hey..." "Scott Norris was looking for you." "I know." "I've seen you." "You make it look so easy." "What are you talking about?" "I've seen you with David." "What are you doing?" "Waiting for a cab." "I'll be back Monday." "Sure." "It came up last minute." "Call your Coach." "What?" "Why?" "Just call him." "I'll see you Monday." "One more time." "Your dad seems to be against you playing." "So if he's asking me to give you another chance..." "Get the hell away." "Just wait." "You want to get rid of me?" "Fine, you win." "I will stay away from you." "I didn't send it, i swear." "Well, who did?" "Your secret admirer?" "Yes!" "You're not that special." "Just... where are you going?" "Are you going to Brock's party?" "Jules, you don't have to go." "I'm not going to play some victim holed up in her bedroom." "No, Jules, just stay here for a second and talk to me." "Damn." "God, you scared me." "Thanks." "You're Bess, right?" "You were in my math class." "How come you always wear black and white?" "It's too difficult to think about all the other colors." "Thanks for the tissue." "Why were you crying?" "Lots of reasons." "I know that feeling." "I think i need a drink." "Hey... thanks for coming up here." "Are you doing okay?" "As long as i keep my head buried in this glass." "I'm getting another drink." "Hey." "Hi." "You doing okay?" "I've been better..." "Broccoli." "You know, i can't believe he did that to you." "Makes me glad he blew out his knee." "Um, i need to lay down." "Okay, do you want me to..." "No, i'm fine." "Are you sure you're going to be okay?" "How could Bess do something like that?" "She's insane." "I'm sorry." "I thought she would stop, but she's out of control." "We should go to the police." "I didn't see anything and i've been drinking." "They're not going to believe me." "Then i'm going to take care of this, okay?" "I'm not going to let her hurt you again." "What are you going to do?" "I'll think of something." "I need to lie down." "I'll be fine." "Shit, shit." "Are you all right?" "I think so." "I think i slid just in time." "I'm..." "I'm so sorry." "I'm fine." "Seriously." "At least it's not bleeding." "Seriously, i'm okay." "I can't say the same for my bike." "Oh, God." "Shit." "Take this." "Thank you." "Um, let me take you to the hospital." "No, it's okay." "Really." "Let me at least take you home." "Okay." "I'm Scott, by the way." "Andie." "Thanks." "So, thanks for dropping me off." "Yeah, sure." "Are you sure you're okay?" "Yeah, i think everything is in place." "This is still bleeding." "Just let me take you to the hospital, please." " No." "It's fine, really." "I have a first aid kit inside." "Well, then at least let me help you." "Okay, come on." "Put your leg up on the table." "I could do this myself." "I have scars all over my legs." "Trust me, you don't want one." "And if you don't clean it properly, it will scar." "Okay, i trust you." "Sorry." "Almost done." "All right." "Better?" "Good." "I'm going to go put this away." "Thank you." "Yeah." "Oh, nice chess board." "It's just like the one in your kitchen." "What?" "No, i um... i got to go, actually," "I have company." "Yeah, it's a man." "I got to go, mom." "I love you, too." "Bye." "Oh, God." "Oh, God." "We need to talk." "About what?" "Where are your parents, really?" "What are you talking about?" "I looked them up on amazon." "They weren't there." "Travel writers?" "That sounds so fake." "Are you crazy?" "Are you?" "Hey, guys." "Oh, what happened to your eye?" "He's fine." "Okay." "We're just unpacking." "Do you want to invite your friend in, Bess?" "Can we be alone, mom?" "Okay." "Do you like it?" "I wish i had more time to make everything perfect, but..." "Stupid bitch." "You have to let me go." "What's wrong with you?" "It's okay." "I use this sometimes to calm myself." "Your dad, he left a message." "He said he landed safely." "You texted him back, "Cool. "" "I like this phone so much better than your other one." "If it makes you feel any better," "I would have helped you cover it up." "You mean... you were going to help me cover up murdering my parents?" "Yeah." "I'm sorry for all the mean things i say to you sometimes." "You can say whatever you want to me." "You're a good friend, Jeffrey." "Anything but that." "Okay, but are you going to be able to handle that?" "Uh-huh." "So you'll stop doing weird things?" "Mm-hmm." "Like following me." "You will, like you'll stop following me around." "Yeah." "So you've never done anything weird before?" "Bye, Jeffrey." "Hey." "I forgot a few things last night." "Let me guess." "Notes to Crushes?" "I know it hurts when things don't work out." "I loved a boy in school." "Brian Solverson." "Yeah." "He had no idea who i was." "He died never knowing i existed." "He died?" "But i promised myself that i would never let that happen again if i found someone like him." "Have you found someone like him?" "I think so." "David's nice." "I like him." "Can you close up?" "Sure." "I'll be at home if you need me." "You know, you remind me of myself in high school." "Hey, missed you at the store." "I'm sorry for just showing up like this." "You haven't been returning my calls, so i..." "I just... i can't do this, David." "What did i do wrong?" "Tell me." "Tell me what i did wrong." "No, it's me." "Please don't say that." "Everywhere i go, i find someone, and then i lose them." "I just want this time to be different." "It will be different." "I... i just want to talk." "Andie, i promise you i will not give up." "I believe in this." "I believe in us." "It would have been so much easier if it was you." "No, this isn't for you." "This is for you." "People are going to start looking for me soon." "My dad's going to be home." "True." "But they're not going to think to look for you in my basement." "I'm nothing special." "I'm not worth all of this!" "You are wrong!" "Bess was right." "I want you to draw me like you drew her." "I wasn't drawing Bess." "Who were you drawing?" "That teacher?" "I want you to draw me like you drew her." "If you do it, i'll let you go." "Okay." "Okay." "I told you i'd let you go." "I'm done." "So do you like it?" "Can i go?" "What?" "Please don't do this." "Do it again." "Bess, call 911." "Are you okay?" "What's going on?" "Call 911." "Call 911." "Just dial it." "911, state your emergency." "Andie, what's going on?" " 911." " Go Bess!" "I tried to help you." "Go Bess, run!" "Go, Bess, go!" "No!" "Bess." "Shut up, Brian!" "Fuck you!" "Bess, wake up." "Thanks, both of you." "Hey." "What are you doing here?" "Somebody just told me to show up." "You want to sit and wait until they get here?" "Sure." "Secret admirer, huh?" "Yeah, i guess." "How come you're not at the party?" "I have to study for a history test." "Besides, i'm not really a party person." "What are you working on?" "Come on." "Well..." "I'm trying to get into art school." "Hello Sophie, i'm Robert Graham." "You can step outside, thanks." "Or do you prefer Andie?" "Or Mary?" "I'll be taking your case." "Nancy Brown woke from her coma, so that's some good news." "Bad news, though, she identified you as her attacker." "What i've gotten from others, this started with Brian Solverson." "He died in high school from an accidental drowning." "No..." "So it wasn't an accident." "No, it didn't start with him." "So who did it start with then?" "Help!" "Can you put the book down and look at me?" "I'm trying to help you." "This is important." "Take your time." "You're going to be here for while." "I really don't stay in one place too long."
