"James:" "What came first?" "Needs or desires?" "Egg or chicken?" "The causalty dilemma" "Did the desire to live create the needs in the first place?" "Are food, shelter and clothing just means to satisfy that desire?" "However, there's one need whose existence is not as easy to explain" "Why is it unnatural for babies to NOT come crying into this world?" "Why a smile just won't do?" "A need seldom recognized..." "A need which in a way creates the desire to live..." "A need that dies with death..." "A need that distinguishes life from an eternity of nothingness..." "The need for Drama." "Leo:" "There you are" "Missed me?" "You must be James, right?" "Hi, I'm Leo" "How're you doing, sir?" "Good?" "Great." "Well..." "I was kinda bored, so I thought why don't come here and kill you finally." "You like some music?" "A requiem, perhaps." "There." "Good for the both of us, I guess..." "I help you out of the misery that this world is" "and lighten the same misery for myself" "But you see, James..." "I won't kill you so quickly" "That would be so..." "Uninteresting" "So shallow" "Sure, I could use saws, knives, drills etc." "But still..." "It would lack any actual meaning" "Chopping, slicing, tearing etc." "I've had enough of that physical experience" "Now, I want meaning" "Story." "Killing you just like that would be like a..." "Like a..." "Like a still photograph." "Now, I want video." "Oh, don't get me wrong." "A photo can tell a story." "But I'll be unsure of what to learn from it and what not to." "I want to know you." "Form you into a definite character." "Into a story." "Oh, I'm sorry let me just" "There you go." "I'll switch the camera on and give you five minutes to convince me not to kill you" "Trust me, there is a chance." "Because you see, James..." "I'm a man of my word." "Well, a man of words, actually." "And, action." "Alright, start." "Friends, family, ambition, sympathy..." "Bribe me!" "Anything." "Okay..." "I'll give you a direction..." "A hint, sort of..." "Let's start at the very basic" "You see, James..." "I need to kill you because you saw me doing my job" "You know I kill people for a living." "The only one alive to know that." "It's a matter of perspectives and you have to convince me in my own." "You see, James..." "In my perspective" "You're not the one person out of all those alive who knows about my job." "No." "In my perspective..." "Out of all the people around who know about this" "You, my friend... are the only one alive." "Now, that is a special privelege you have, James" "Being alive." "Now, all you have to do is convince me that you deserve that special privelege." "Remember..." "My perspective." "You have five minutes." "James:" "I fear death, yes." "It's the end of drama." "And death is your business." "And it seems business is boring." "Drama." "It can make the most boring of things interesting." "And the lack of it the most interesting of things boring." "Killing interests you as much as breathing does." "Life lies in the drama around it." "The story." "And not giving you one is my only chance." "Monotony." "Boredom." "Leo:" "Alright." "Time up." "What d'you have, what d'you have..." "What do you have, James?" "Nothing?" "Why, James, why?" "Don't you value your life?" "Of course, you do." "So, come on!" "James?" "What're you doing, James?" "JAMES." "You fuckin' playing with me, James?" "Come on, James!" "I'm here to be entertained, I'm here for a movie, James!" "You cannot bore me like that!" "What the fuck, James!" "You fucking kidding me!" "?" "You playing with me, that's what you're doing?" "!" "You think this is a joke, you piece of shit!" "?" "I'm trying really hard not to kill you here, James?" "A little drama for your life, that's the bargain." "Come on, James!" "JAMES!" "James:" "My thoughts preoccupy me." "It is my choice." "My most appropriate reaction to your blabber is no reaction." "No reaction at all." "You cannot take that." "I know that." "Your irritation might kill me, but it's worth a shot." "Subconsciousness is the best weapon I have." "Subconsciousness." "Where I have not met my wife; where my child does not exist." "Where I'm nothing; nothing, but a vegetable." "But still a vegetable with some potential." "Some potential for your drama." "Leo:" "FUCK!" "That's it." "Enough." "I'm not going to kill you, James." "Not today at least." "Go on." "Enjoy the new degree of freedom." "This round's yours." "Well played, James." "See you." "James:" "My chance."
