Laura Dannon

Fearless flyer.

Laura

Who is this? Or I'll hang up.

Brendan

You don't know me, I'll save you some time.

Laura

I know everyone, and I have all the time in the world.

Brendan

The folly of youth.

Laura

Do you trust me now?

Brendan

Less than when I didn't trust you before.

Laura

You're quite a pill.
Brendan: Uh-huh.

Laura

Where are you going?

Brendan

Home.

Laura

Why did you take a powder the other night?

Brendan

Same reason I'm taking one now.

Laura

Hold it. I wanna help you.

Brendan

Go away. Look, I can't trust you. You ought to be smart enough to know that. I didn't shake up the party to get your attention, and I'm not heeling you to hook you. Your connections could help me, but the bad baggage they bring could make it zero sum gain or even hurt me. Better off coming at it clean.

Laura

I wouldn't have to lead you in by the ha...

Brendan

I can't trust you! Brad was a sap. You weren't. You were with him, and so you were playing him. So you're a player. With you behind me I'd have to tie one eye up watching both your hands, and I can't spare it.

The Brain

What did she whisper to you?

Brendan

She called me a dirty word.

The Brain

All right, you don't have to tell me.

The Pin

You got Tug to bring you in here, which he never does. And you got me listening. So, I'm very curious what you have to say, and it better be really, really good.

Brendan

I was just going to come up with some bit of information, or set up some phony deal. And I think she'd let me walk. Then I was going to go to the vice principal and spill the in the street address of the biggest dope port in the burg.

He knows zippo.

Brendan

1250, Vista Blanca, the ink blotter, on the desk in the den, in the basement, of the house with the tacky mailbox.

The Pin

Anyway you've been sniffing me out before then, sniffing for me like a vampire bat for a horse with a nick on its ear he can suck on.

Brendan Frye

I'm looking to find this big game the Pin's played, not to gum it, but just so when its tail jams in my back I'll know who to bill for the embalming.

Brendan Frye

I've got knives in my eyes, I'm going home sick.

The Pin

Let's take you back upstairs. Back with the living.

Brendan Frye

Maybe I'll just sit here and bleed at you.

Brendan Frye

Throw one at me if you want, hash head. I've got all five senses and I slept last night, that puts me six up on the lot of you.

Brendan Frye

Uh-huh. And he wants cash on the nail. He's a pot-skulled reef worm with more hop in his head than blood. Why pay for dirt you can't believe?

The Brain

When the "Upper-Crust" does shady deeds, they do them all over town, and the pitch is, they got these little symbols so they can tell each without word getting around.

The Pin

Where you were at, with all of us and the Tug a fist away, you've got to use your nut. Allay the situation. So, yeah, you're not scared of me, I got it, but I'm also thinking you're a little nuts now, so you've got that trade off with your situation. But nuts isn't all bad, so maybe it was a good play. I don't know.
