[Jerry is struggling with security guards, demanding to see Alice Sutton.]
I am an American citizen! I have a right to be here!
Alice Sutton Officers! Officers, please! I'm Alice Sutton. I'll take it from here.
Alice You need to start making appointments.
Uh... can I make one now? Say, in a couple of minutes? I can wait if you're busy.
Alice Come around.
...
Alice I don't see the connection.
You don't see the connection? Come on. Six major earthquakes in the last three-and-a-half years, and the space shuttle up in orbit for every single one of 'em. Don't you think that's a little strange?
Alice Testing some top-secret seismic weapon?
No, not testing. Using. Nukes are pass?. We're talking weapon of the future.
Alice Okay, but I still don't see what it has to do with the president.
The president is in Europe at the moment, and tomorrow he'll be, uh, in Turkey. Right here, along this fault line. And they sent up a space shuttle yesterday.
Alice Motive?
Motive? How about fifty billion dollars, how's that for a motive? The president's cutting funding for NASA, the milk-cow of the aerospace industry. And that's a lot of milk.
Alice Um, so... you're telling me that NASA is going to kill the president of the United States with an earthquake
It's not the kind of thing a Secret Service agent can, like, just throw himself on top of, is it?
...
Alice Now, I have to go. My boss is looking to yell at me.
Oh. Do you want me to talk to him? You know, smooth things out for you?
Alice No, Jerry. I want you to go home, or wherever it is that you go. And I want you to make an appointment next time. Please? You can't just keep bursting in here.
That's... it's just what they'd be expecting me to do. If I make an appointment --
Alice Jerry. I have a serious job here. I have a boss I must answer to. Do you understand that?
I'm sorry. You're right.
Alice Use your common sense.
Okay. Okay, deal. So, are you gonna warn him?
Alice Who?
Alice I'm not gonna promise you anything, okay?
Alice Sutton Pardon me?
You were going to ask about my nose. A dog bit it. Poor animal is slated to be destroyed today.
Alice And you feel sorry for it?
It was my dog.
...
Alice Sutton He said a dog bit his nose.
Arf.
Alice Sutton Do you have any proof of this?
No. Absolutely not. I mean, a good conspiracy is an unproveable one.
Alice [At his apartment, Jerry balances an empty bottle on the doorknob.]
Is that supposed to protect you from aliens or something?
No, no. It's just a beer bottle.
David Berkowitz, Ted Bundy, Richard Speck…
Alice What about them?
Serial killers. Serial killers only have two names, you ever notice that? But lone-gunman assassins, they always have three names. John Wilkes Booth, Lee Harvey Oswald, Mark David Chapman…
Alice John Hinckley. He shot Reagan. He only has two names.
Yeah, but he only just shot Reagan. Reagan didn't die. If Reagan had died, I'm pretty sure… we probably would all know what John Hinckley's middle name was.
I love you.
Alice Jerry, no, no, you don't love me.
Sure I do.
Alice No, no.
I don't?
