"They think I had something to do with this." "We're going to handle this the way your father would." " I've got it solved." " You've got it solved?" "Where is she?" "She's going to be fine." "This whole file is going to..." "Thank God you're here." "It's OK." "I love her." "Look at these photos, then I'm going to destroy them." "Sofia's testimony is also in here." "It won't exist." "She's not going to press charges." " Press charges against me?" " David, wake up." "As a friend I think you should see what you did to Sofia." "The press won't get hold of this if you get away quickly." "This is Julie Gianni, this is not Sofia." "This is Julie Gianni." "I didn't do this to her." "Someone's setting me up." "David, the board and I have taken care of everything." "They've been really great, actually." "All this is going to disappear." "We're all behind you, even the board." "Get out of here." "This is a revolution of the mind." "You're insane!" "Don't ever hit a girl!" "Hit me, but don't ever hit a girl!" "It wasn't Sofia." "It was Julie." " It was Julie." " It was Julie Gianni." "So Sofia was abducted by Julie and now Julie is posing as Sofia." "You're in OJ land, man." "Julie Gianni is dead!" "I don't care what they told you." "I can assure you Julie Gianni is alive." " I didn't talk to them, I talked to Sofia." " Where is she?" "I just dropped Sofia off." "I saw everything you did to her." "I did not do that to her." "Look me in the eye and tell me that's the girl you brought to the party." "Tell me that's your dream girl, your proximity infatuation." "Yes!" "And you stole her from me." "The one girl I really wanted and you took her from me." "You're insane." "You're losing it, man!" " You have revealed yourself." " Oh, yeah." "I'm with them." "Where did you get the coat, Brian?" "Where did you get the camera?" "How much did they pay you?" "Listen to me, because this is the last time we're ever going to speak." " I was your only friend." " You have revealed yourself to me." "Problems?" "I'm in no mood to be fucked with, so..." "There's an explanation for all this, David." "You and I know each other." "You found me on the Internet." "I'm here to help you, David." "Who the fuck are you?" "Why are you following me?" "First of all, it's very important that you calm down." "Calm down?" "Calm down!" "You must overcome your fears and regain control." "Take hold of your life again, David." "It's as easy as holding that glass." "What if I were to tell you that you can take control of all of this?" "Even me." "I'm straight, OK?" "David, look at all these people." "Seems as though they're all just chatting away, doesn't it?" " Nothing to do with you?" " No." "And yet maybe they're only here because you wanted them to be here." "You are their god." "You can make them obey you or even destroy you." "What I'd love for them to do is shut the fuck up, especially you." "You see?" "You and I signed a contract, David." "'Who is the man in the restaurant?" "' Who is it?" "Can you tell the difference between dreams and reality?" " Of course." "Can you?" " Think about it." "Think with your head." "You signed a contract, did you not?" " I signed something." " Was the man in the restaurant there?" " Fuck!" " Accept your body's resistance." "Let your head answer." " Yes." " That's right." "Who is Ellie?" " I don't know what's real." " What happened that night?" " Somebody died." " I don't want to remember." "You understand you hold the keys to this prison?" " It wasn't Sofia." " Who was it?" " No." " Who was it?" "You want to let it out, don't you, David?" "You're about to tell me." "Tell me what your heart and soul will not allow you to forget." "Did you kill Sofia?" "I thought you were a vandal." "Who are you?" "I'm Sofia." "You are not Sofia!" "You are not Sofia." "I'm Sofia." "We're going to be together again." "You're going to forget about Juliana and we're going to be together." "I'm not going to be afraid of you any more." "I'll get you a cold towel." "I'll be right back." "I love you." "'Pleasure delayer. '" "Sofia?" "I am Sofia." "I love you." "I missed you so much." "Where were you?" "Forget it." "I don't need to know." "It doesn't matter." "Just tell me that you love me." "I love you." "What is happiness to you, David?" "For me, it's being here with you." "What the fuck is happening?" "What the fuck is happening?" "David was a real delight as a child." "I'm so afraid of how powerful this is." "Oh, David." "Red dress, strappy shoes..." "That is the greatest thing I have ever heard." "I'll tell you in another life when we are both cats." "What's happening?" "I did it, didn't I?" "But I don't feel like I killed someone." " I feel like I'm in a dream." " Who was the man at the restaurant?" "Sometimes the mind behaves as if it were a dream." "Faces change, people become other people." "The subconscious is a powerful thing." "You treated Julie carelessly, didn't you?" "Your feelings of responsibility or guilt over Julie might have turned Sofia into Julie." " Do you know what derangement is?" " I need your help." "All I know is you killed your girlfriend and I don't know what's in your mind." "I need your help." "I would work on this case forever if I could, but we've run out of time." "What will you plead?" "Temporary derangement." "That's your best chance." "I don't think they'll believe me." "Who do you believe?" "Believe it or not, I care about you." "You've become like family to me." "I don't want to give up on you, David." "But I needed more." "I needed an answer." "I even thought there was a chance somebody was playing a trick on you." "Maybe it was the board." "But I can't exceed my duties." "I'm just a psychologist and I have to go now." "Will I see you at the trial?" "No, I'm just the opening act." "'Reassurance is our speciality." "That's the Life Extension creed."
