none of it really happened, it’s a bullshit ghost story.

i hate this. i really hate this.

nobody drives my car but me.

come ride in the back with me, i’ll let you do things to me.

you can’t drive for shit, you know that?

what’s wrong with you?

what was that?

maybe it was an animal.

oh my god, you’re bleeding.

it must have been a dog or something.

fuck!   can’t you see where you’re going?

look, it came out of nowhere, i didn’t see it.

a dog couldn’t have done that.

oh my god, this isn’t happening ...

is he dead ... ?

check his pulse.

i think he’s dead.

use your brain   [ name ] ,   we call the police and we’re fucked.

we can clean it up, come on.

like, just pretend we were never here.

shit, they’re slowing down. who is it?

yeah, don’t drink and drive.

you can wipe that   “ my shit don’t stink ”   grin off your face.

you almost got that rich boy act down.

i don’t want to know.

shit, we agreed.

god, come on   [ name ] ,   it’s not too late.

you shut up   —   just shut up.

christ already, i’ll do it.

let’s get out of here.

we’re going home now and never, ever, under any circumstances known to god, speak about this again. is that clear?

we make a pact, right here. and now we take this to our grave.

well then, what is wrong?   i mean, you look like death.

it’s not that serious, really.

i mean, you went away and you don’t call and you don’t visit.

who sent this?   there’s no postmark or return address.

it’s good to see you.

somebody sent this to me.

somebody knows,   [ name ] .

what if somebody saw us?   what if somebody else was there that night?

we need help.

you’re a prick.

we can’t just ignore it.

you shut the hell up!   we didn’t murder anyone.

he was still alive.

you wait here.

what are you gonna do?

i know what i’m doing.

hey, listen, can we talk for a sec?   in private?

don’t fuck with me,   [ name ] .

listen, i’m gonna say this once: i’ll fucking kill your ass, i’ve got no problem with that—!

motherfucker. don’t you test me, motherfucker, i’ll call the cops on your college quaterback ass.

he won’t bother you anymore.

i took care of it, okay?

that’s nice. have a nice life guys, i’m out of here.

look, he’s probably just screwing around.

i know you hold me responsible for what happened.

i don’t blame you. but i don’t want to know you either.

i couldn’t see his face.

we have no choice here, okay?   somebody tried to kill you last night.

if he wanted me dead, he could’ve done it.

he’s just fucking with us.

this isn’t getting us anywhere.

no. we made a pact and we’re keeping it.

look at us, this secret’s killing us.

i want you to get something, there is no you and me.

i remember that wreck two summers ago.

what do we have to lose?

don’t you think we should have some sort of a plan?   angela lansbury always had a plan!

what if they recognize us?

they could have a gun and shoot us dead.

adding breaking and entering to our crime spree?

hi, my car stalled down the road and i was just wondering if maybe i could use your phone ?

your name,   [ name ]   ...   it sounds very familiar.

things just haven’t been the same since he died.

i don’t get too many knocks on my door nowadays.

hey !   you forgot your cigarettes.

maybe he wanted to die.

yeah if that’ll help you sleep at night.

what happened between us?   we used to be best friends.

we used to be a lot of things.

i miss you.

it’s tradition, there’s nothing i can do about it.

you and your hair, it’s so pathetic.

are you sure he was dead?

where’d he go?   did the crabs carry him away?

come on,   [ name ] ,   let’s go back to the house?

what are you waiting for, huh?   what are you waiting for?!

i’ve been looking everywhere for you guys.

you’re gonna die.

hey—   hey, stop it.

i didn’t do anything.

[ name ]   is dead?

stop it!   look, we have to stick together, alright?   we have to help each other.

so that’s him, huh?   hard to believe that’s the guy.

i don’t want him to show up.

this could be our chance. we could catch him.

whatever he’s planned is going to happen today, unless we stop him.

let’s get the hell out of here!   we can leave town, disapear.

i’ve already disapeared, okay?   now i want my life back.

what are you doing here?

now, what’s this all about?

he left a note.

this is a death threat.

get out of here. get out of my house.

everything’s gonna be alright. i’m not gonna let anything happen to you.

help him, he’s gonna kill him—!

he was here.

why don’t you let me take you home, okay?

look, okay, i know i sound delusional, but it’s true.

we’re gonna have to take the alley.

he was probably just playing a prank on you

oh, jesus, listen, i’m just gonna be a minute, alright?   i’m gonna see if this guy needs help.

that’s him, behind you—!   behind you!

please, open the door, jesus christ, now!

lock the other door, i’ll call the police.

just do what i say, god dammit.

[ name ] ?   [ name ] ?   [ name ] ,   where are you?

what if he’s still alive?

you. oh my god, it’s you.

you in some kind of trouble?

yes, yeah, i’m in a lot of trouble.

that’s a shame. kids like you should be out having fun, drinking, partying, running people over, getting away with murder ... things like that.

open the door,   [ name ] .   you got no place to hide

i know all about accidents and let me give you some advice: when you leave a man for dead, make sure he’s really dead.

"You always look at me like that. Like you're waiting for something."

"Tell me to leave... and I will."

"Why does it have to be you?"

"I wasn’t supposed to feel this way about you."

"Stay. Just for tonight."

"You're the last person I should be falling for."

"If you keep looking at me like that, I’m going to do something stupid."

"We could pretend. Just for a while."

"Say it again. Like you mean it this time."

"I didn’t come here to argue. I came here because I miss you."

"You have no idea what you do to me."

"Don’t smile at me like that. It’s not fair."

"I told myself I’d stop. I really tried."

"Your heartbeat’s loud. Is it because of me?"

"Don’t go. Please."

"You’re the only one who ever made me feel safe."

"Is this… more than a mistake to you?"

"I can’t lose you, too."

"Lie to me. Just once. Tell me you don’t feel anything."

"Why do you keep pretending this isn’t real?"

"Just one kiss. That’s all I’m asking."

"You’re all I think about when I shouldn’t."

"What if I said I’ve been in love with you this whole time?"

"Do you want me to stay?"

"I   dare   you   to   try."

"Do   you   always   get   close?"

"You’re   pushing   my   limits."

"Stop   looking   at   me   like   that."

"I’m   losing   control   here."

"You   have   no   idea,   do   you?"

"I   can’t   resist   you   anymore."

"Stay   back,   or   don’t."

"I   know   what   you   want."

"This   is   getting   dangerous   now."

"You’re   too   tempting   for   me."

"I   shouldn’t   want   this,   but…"

"I   don’t   play   fair,   remember?"

"Careful,   you’re   testing   me."
