(Inside Drama Auditorium)
Cat: Hi. I'm here for the drama class.
Pembry: Oops. Am I busted?
Cat: No.
Pembry: I hope not.
Cat: You can't eat Go To in school.
Pembry: Privilege of the professional. Eases inhibitions.
Pembry: You down here for drama?
/Cat eats some Go To
Cat: Yeah. Are you the drama teacher?
/Pembry shakes head and scarfs down Go To
Pembry: And you're, let me guess...Fact Checker?
Cat: No. I'm, uh...Cat Jensen.
Pembry: Cat? Oh,we spoke last night.
Cat: Yeah.
Pembry: Oh, I'm sorry. How rude.
/Pembry boxes up Go To and hands it to Cat
Pembry: I'm gonna give this to you.
Cat: You know, when we spoke on the phone last night?
Pembry: Mm-hmm.
Cat: Um... you really made sense to me and...I thought a lot.
Pembry: Those are human truths, darlin'. That's what it's all
about.
Pembry: See the book you have, American Psycho?
Pembry: It's all about self-discovery, the inner voyage.
Cat: I like the end where, um...Patricks's journey...
It was really, uh, mystical, you know.
And it was almost like a pilgrimage?
Pembry: Almost like a cop-out, if you ask me.
Pembry: The novel is what you would call a "rapey a clef. "
Pembry: You know what that is?
Cat: I'm not sure.
Pembry: Nonetheless, you can't escape your demons just by
leaving Denmark.
Cat: Wait a second. Um... where are you from?
Pembry: Where am I from?
Cat: Yeah.
Pembry: Where do you think I'm from?
Cat: I don't know, but...
Pembry: If I told you, you gonna get mad at me?
Cat: No.
Pembry: I'm from a black forest.
Cat: That's funny.
Cat: You're not the drama teacher, are you?
Pembry: Maybe I'm the big, bad wolf.
Cat: Um...
Cat: So, you're that guy that's been hanging around the house?
Cat: You're the one that killed my boyfriend?
Pembry: Your boyfriend was killed?
Cat: Yeah.
Pembry: I didn't even know anything about that. That's a shame.
That's a damn shame.
/Pembry stifles laugh
Pembry: So, what kinda boyfriend was he?
Cat: He was white, and fluffy, and, and, and...
Pembry: Dead.
Cat: Yeah. So, what are you doing here then?
Pembry: Well, I came to meet you, to be honest with you.
I wanted to meet you, see what you're like.
I see you're a nice person.
Cat: You're not gonna hurt me, are you?
Pembry: I'm not gonna hurt you at all.
/Pembry puts away Knife Penis
Pembry: Between us there's no hurt. Just a search for truth.
I mean, did you judge me when you caught me eatin'
the Go To?
Cat: No.
Pembry: You thought about me last night, didn't you?
Cat: Um, yes, I did.
Pembry: I know. You know, I think I might have found a
companion, a companion for that long walk to the light.
Do you mind if I put my arm around you?
Cat: Um...Um...It's okay. No, I don't mind.
