I see. So more like a tight rope walker who secretly wants to be a trapeze artist.
|
I guess.
|
Interesting.
|
She said peanuts, you cretin.
|
You never know around here.
|
Don't write that part.
|
Is this an gritty expos or a candy ass press release?
|
Write what you want. Just try not to make it so obvious that you're crazy about me.
|
Life must be peachy on Planet Ted.
|
Funny you should say "peachy."
|
I did my homework. Your grandfather was a peach farmer.
|
My adoptive grandfather. Who knows what my biological grandfather did.
|
Undoubtedly an aristocratic bartender of some sort.
|
Considering this is your first time on a private jet, on which you are interviewing the world's most eligible bachelor, you are extremely cavalier.
|
I bet there are lots and lots of mirrors on Planet Ted.
|
See? You're impertinent, rude, sarcastic.
|
And this is not my first time on a private jet, so quit acting like I'm Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm.
|
A little respect would be nice, that's all.
|
Well? What do you think of her?
|
You're so twitterpated you don't even see the miner's hat and the pickax.
|
You're implying she's, what, a gold digger?
|
Charlie's right. Jealousy is so unattractive.
|
Second only to unbridled, narcissistic conceit.
|
Why can't you be nice to me?
|
You've got enough people kissing your ass.
|
Wow...you clean up nice.
|
Put your eyeballs back in your head, William Randolph. I'm on assignment. A girl has to fit in.
|
Where are we going?
|
To the best hiding place in the world.
|
I can't believe your dad built this for you.
|
He didn't. He had it built.
|
Whatever.
|
Not "whatever." It's two different things.
|
He cared enough to want you to have it.
|
He phoned it in.
|
I see.
|
I doubt it.
|
Now it makes sense, the whole neo Bohemian, down with hypocrisy, fight the power crap. You're a poor little rich girl.
|
The ozone must be fully depleted on Planet Ted.
|
You think my dad would have been like that if I knew him? You think he would have bought me a stadium, instead of teaching me how to play ball?
|
Your dad taught you everything.
|
I mean my father.
|
A father is nothing but sperm, Ted. It takes a real man to be a dad.
|
It's all so complicated.
|
It's incredibly simple.
|
I feel like I'm being drawn and quartered. Like every part of me is being pushed and pulled and tugged in a different direction.
|
Eventually you'll let go.
|
And then what?
|
Then you'll see who's really holding on to you.
|
You're amazing.
|
I know.
|
Even when you infuriate me, I still want to kiss you.
|
But you never do.
|
If we were a team, we could do anything. I mean, anything.
|
Cut to the chase, William Randolph. Your audience is way ahead of you.
|
In a word: MERK. EXPOSED.
|
That's two words. And I'm out of the "exposed" business, remember? I need to graduate. Besides, Merk's a boy scout.
|
There's gotta be something. We have to dig deeper.
|
You forget, I dislike YOU at least as much as him.
|
He shut down your paper! You're stuck writing articles about swap meets and raffles and PTA brunches!
|
A good journalist can take lemons and make lemonade. I'm honing my craft.
|
Then you won't mind covering that watermelon seed spitting contest next week...
|
That's probably my office.
|
Well? Where the hell are you?
|
He's on the move?
|
I got an anonymous tip and an address in Cincinnati.
|
Let's do it.
|
I don't know. This place seems pretty tame.
|
You expected whips, chains, Merk being cattleprodded by some dominatrix in a leather hood?
|
At least it's not another 4H meeting or a Big Brother barbecue.
|
Amen to that.
|
Look at us. It's one o'clock in the morning, on a school night. We're in a smoky nightclub, hoping to catch our principal with some big city tart.
|
I'm trembling with excitement.
|
That has more to do with your proximity to me.
|
My desire betrays me, like goosebumps on my flesh.
|
I have a bit of a goosebump fetish. Not many people know that.
|
I figured you for more of a hairy armpit guy.
|
Shoes, if you want to know the truth. Shoes are my thing.
|
Wearing them? Or humping them?
|
My fantasy is a totally naked woman, wearing nothing but a Timex and suede clogs.
|
That's refreshingly deviant.
|
What about you?
|
I'm very aural.
|
Tell me more.
|
Sounds, voices, music, humming. All of it can turn me on, or off, like a switch.
|
I see.
|
I had a Portuguese boyfriend who could read the phone book and melt me.
|
A Portuguese boyfriend. Sounds very "Cosmo."
|
You live and learn. I realized the most important thing to me, above all, is trust.
|
Turned out to be a scoundrel, eh? I saw that one coming.
|
You lose trust in someone and it's over, done, gone, forever.
|
Do you trust me, Julie?
|
Not a chance.
|
Come on.
|
Trust is something you earn, over time. You don't just inherit it overnight like a gazillion dollar empire.
|
I want you to trust me.
|
Maybe someday.
|
Julie, I'll tell you something that is the god's honest truth. I've seen a lot of really beautiful girls. I mean a lot. But none of them make me feel like you do.
|
That's hard to believe.
|
But absolutely true.
