MASON ALEXANDER PARK AS DESIRE

are you getting a vibe?

... so that's how it works.

i've never been so happy to see you.

how could you possibly have survived?

i promised myself i wouldn't cry.

i'd recommend 24 hours isolation from light.

i'll take care of it all.

welcome to the future. let's change it, shall we?

i don't want to watch any more of that.

i know it's hard, NAME, but it's right there in front of us.

innocent people don't run.

looks like something heavy was dragged through here.

this place just gets more interesting every day.

really? that's your first thought?

nothing like a little 'war of the worlds' to put a toddler to sleep.

i'll explain when i get there.

... here? you're coming to LOCATION?

how do you not have jet lag?

no, that'd be like shooting off a big red flare.

there's no reason for me not to get my groove on.

you don't look like much of a threat to me.

i thought you might be trouble, coming in late.

the best place to hide is right out in the open.

i didn't think anyone was still here.

i seem to have left my ITEM here.

why call when i can fly 5,000 miles ... in coach!

i needed to talk to someone who knows me.

do you plan on running for the rest of your life? — because that's what it's going to take to get me off of your back.

i think i can take the risk. don't make me regret it.

will there ever come a time where you do as you are told?

perhaps you'd like to tell me why you're ransacking my home.

i thought english people were supposed to be polite.

don't they all turn on you eventually? men.

you've really held onto some anger.

that explains why my head still hurts.

don't speculate about things of which you know nothing.

the world was a different place.

do all your dates work out this way?

i'll admit it ... i thought she was hot.

in this job, there's no such thing as 'no such thing'.

are you alright? i thought you were supposed to be in the hospital.

you don't remember. you've been having lapses, blackouts.

you tried to kill me.

i can either run or lecture, i can't do both.

when do i get one of those?

do not deviate one iota from what i'm about to tell you.

this place is full of booby traps.

if you're gonna grab me like that, i need some sweet talk.

it should be me driving right now!

all said and done, that wasn't terribly difficult.

so a long way to go for nothing, eh, NAME?

i'm disappointed, but not surprised.

i wanted you to see what i saw.

all this time i thought i knew the truth. i'm sorry, NAME.

if anybody should be shellshocked, it should be me.

you? YOU were the victim?

go easy. we've all been through a lot.

thanks... for coming after me.

okay, why is everyone hugging all the time around here?

you're gonna have to chase me.

how do we navigate once we're in there?

i've been thinking about this for a very long time.

why on earth would you do that?

so NAME... NAME's cute.

we've seen stranger things.

since i knew what to look for, it wasn't hard to find a pattern.

something you'd like to share?

that only makes me more curious.

i appreciate the advice, but can we just get back to work?

just try not to be 12 years old, okay?

NAME? NAME, what's happening?

it just happened, it was like a nightmare. i couldn't help.

i couldn't help, i had to just stand there and watch.

that's easier said than done.

i'm gonna say yes, you're gonna say no, but i'm right.

no, i meant for me. black, no sugar.

i'm here to take your pictures. ready to be beautiful?

what did NAME ever do to you?

relax, NAME, you'll get wrinkles.

it's like a game of gay clue.

explain to me again why i'm doing this and you're cowering 10 feet away.

it's more like a pie - slash - coffee ... summit.

just... you know, be yourself.

i guess i've just had too much caffeine today.

how many of these things can you drink, anyways?

why all the questions about my past?

i was wondering if you had any sisterly advice.

you know, i'm always amazed at the correlation between being beautiful and being a complete bitch.

with one look, i could stop a war. or start one.

when i'm out there, i tear out my soul and offer it up for everyone to see.

sounds to me like you're glad she's dead.

i'm just curious about the people i work with.

i wonder if the next girl will ask what happened to you.

you've got a pretty whacked-out definition of hurt.

they could afford to pay.

they're the good ones, not legal here yet.

you're gonna go home, and you're gonna call in sick.

i couldn't believe it when you finally called.

what kind of advice is 'be yourself'?

are you decent? you know what, screw it, i'm coming in.

don't you dare laugh.

i don't want you to go out there.

what? no fight, no argument?

you don't ever listen to me.

i'm not the pretty one.

i can't say it to the back of your head either.

NAME, you are a stunningly beautiful woman.

wait a minute, i came here to talk you out of it!

you are gonna tell me EVERYTHING.

i hope it hurt, like you've hurt me.

well, can i interest you in ... staying alive?

you've been peddling a second chance at life.

lay off, we might need this guy.

do you doubt that my friend wants to beat you to death?

the doctors say you're doing great.

i'm not giving up on you, don't you give up.

you and i, we're never gonna happen.

everything i did was for you.

how many innocent lives has your vitality cost?

i'm so glad to see you looking like the old you.

you didn't make me a trainwreck.

i hate that, don't use that word– 'cute'.

stop trying to confuse me!

guess how many croissants i shoved into my mouth?

should i have worn something more business suit-ey?

how'd it go with the police?

you would've done something, stayed calm at least. i totally freaked out.

i know what it's like to do good work and no one notices.

you think i'm involved? you're out of your mind.

pressure is good. it makes you win.

you seem kind of new at this.

if i need anything, i'll circle back.

i'm sorry you had to come all the way to LOCATION just for this.

i place myself in your hands.

maybe i'm wrong, but ... are NAME and NAME sitting in a tree?

instinct is just a fancy way of saying i've done this 1,000 times.

human beings are predictable. people rarely surprise you.

it seems we're forever destined to meet at gunpoint.

you are going back to prison.

the brain requires ... oxygen to ... speak.

i'm not a killer.

he would have quite happily killed all of you.

did you just happen to show up?

if you didn't believe me just a little, you would've shot me by now.

he can't find you in here. he hasn't met me yet.

give that to me! where did you find this?!

do you drink coffee or tea?

sorry– am i crazy, or have we met before?

do you trust me enough to close your eyes?

when were you planning on telling me?

at the risk of being a cliché, do you want to get out of here?

can i convince you to stay the night?

do i look like someone who knows what that means?

would you consider giving me a second chance?

do you really think that's helpful right now?

would you mind showing me around?

do you ever plan on forgiving yourself?

are you thinking what i'm thinking?

can we ... go out and do something crazy?

why are we whispering?

who exactly are you, anyways?

can't we just be civil for a minute?

does the past ever keep you up at night?

if you have nothing to hide, what's the problem?

how long has it been since i saw you last, [ name ]?

did the power just go out?

are we still doing the thing where we pretend not to care?

how should we celebrate?

can we just ... start over?

why is this so important to you?

how was i supposed to know that?!

do you want me to stay? it doesn't have to mean anything.

where are you? nobody's heard from you.

can you help me zip this up?

why do these things always happen to me?

you don't secretly hate me, right?

can i get you something to eat? –or drink?

ready to see what i've been working on?

where have you been disappearing off to?

what's that perfume you're wearing?

you're laughing?! do you really think this is funny?

are you planning to stay for dinner?

did you think it was going to be easy?

you see where you went wrong, don't you?

when did we become so cold and distant?

who are you working for?

did you really do all of this for me?

can i open my eyes yet?

haven't you heard the stories?

[ name ], what are you doing here?

what's it gonna take for you to trust me?

do you believe people can change?

how about we catch the ten o'clock showing?

don't you remember what happened last time?

why is it so unbelievable that i'd want to help you?

you're [ name ], aren't you?

who did this to you?!

how did you know i'd be here?

what's that supposed to mean?

do you think i'm irredeemable?

what kind of mess have you gotten us into?!

do you see anything you like?

what do i owe you for the food?

why won't this stupid thing work?!

does tonight really have to end?

holy shit. can you believe we really pulled that off?!

i can tell you're upset, [ name ]. what happened?

how long have you been standing there?

do you ever wish you could just ... run away?

haven't we been here before?

wait, shush ... did you hear that?

did i miss today's newsletter or something?

can we put our differences aside for a second?

what are you getting out of this, exactly?

you'd tell me if something was wrong, right?

are you willing to bet on it?

would you kill for me?

what made you think that was okay?!

do you believe people can change?

what's the worst thing you've ever done?

you were going to leave without saying goodbye?

[ name ], can you sit up for me?

can i kiss you?

where are your keys? you're not driving like this.

how's life been treating you?

where have you been?!

aren't we supposed to be alone tonight?

aw, has someone had a little too much to drink?

where are you going with this?

are we really doing this right now?

have you eaten today?

can i crash here for the night?

how did you learn to lie so well?

can i at least buy you a drink?

where should i meet you?

is that  ...  blood?!

are you trying to make me jealous right now?

what’s your problem? you're acting weird.

[ name ], you're ... real, right?

where’s your sense of adventure?

do you like horror movies?

what are you trying to prove?

can you give me a ride?

do you have any idea what you've done?

shouldn't you answer that?

why should i be the one to calm down?

have you been up all night?

why are you lying to me?

is that my [ jacket / hoodie / shirt ]?

what are you so afraid of?

do you want to grow old with me?

you’re gonna walk away from this?

are you nervous? your hands are shaking.

where am i supposed to go?

how many fingers am i holding up?

you want me to just walk away from this?

[ name ], slow down– what's wrong?!

are you embarrassed of me?

what's that smell? something's burning.

how can i make it up to you?

why can't you stay out of it?

is this some kind of trick?

come on, what do you have to lose?

do you ever still think of me?

idiot. why didn't you tell me?!

can we stop and think about this rationally?

how long has it been since you’ve slept?

what's your ideal first date?

are you ready to tell me the truth?

i almost died, and you're laughing?

what do you mean, "sort of"?

can we just stay like this forever?

when can i see you again?

can we put this behind us?

oh ... you thought of me first?

where did you learn to do that?

how am i supposed to trust you?

are they still following us?

are you fucking serious?

do you remember our first kiss?

can we take a break for a minute?

how about we disappear for awhile?

you're going to walk away from this?

how can i make this go away?

can you just look at me, please?

is there anything i can do to change your mind?

do you ever stop talking?

that depends. are you done lying to me?

are you sure this is legal?

how do you take your coffee?

can you keep your voice down?
