Bateman
I did it, Carnes. I killed him. I'm Patrick Bateman. I chopped Allen's **** head off. The whole message I left on your machine was true.
Carnes
Excuse me. I really must be going now.
Bateman
No! Listen! Don't you know who I am?! I'm not Davis, I'm Patrick Bateman! W-we talk on the phone all the time. Don't you recognize me? You're my lawyer. Now, Carnes, listen. Listen very, very carefully: I killed Paul Allen, and I liked it. I can't make myself any clearer.
Carnes
But that's simply not possible...and I don't find this funny anymore.
Bateman
It never was supposed to be! Why isn't it possible?
Carnes
It's just not.
Bateman
Why not, you stupid bastard?
Carnes
Because I had dinner with Paul Allen, twice, in London just ten days ago.
Bateman
No, you...didn't.
Carnes
Now if you'll excuse me. [exits]
