Bill
So, Edward, did you have a productive day?
Edward
Mrs. Monroe showed me where the salon's going to be. You could have a cosmetics counter.
Peg
Wouldn't that be great?
Bill
Great.
Edward
And then she showed me the back room where she took all of her clothes off.
Bill
[without listening]
Edward, I can't tell you how thrilled I am, I'm just as pleased as punch. This whole beauty parlor venture is gonna teach you volumes and nothing like running your own business. I've never done it myself, but from what I gather it's the greatest satisfaction a working man can have.
Peg
The light concealing cream goes on first. Then you blend, and blend, and blend. Blending is the secret.
Peg
Darn this stuff!
Peg
You know- damn those TV programs!
Bill
Damn them all to hell.
Peg
Why are you hiding back there? You don't have to hide from me - I'm Peg Boggs, your local Avon representative and I'm as harmless as cherry pie... [sees Edward come toward her] Oh - I can see that I've disturbed you. I'll just be going now...
Edward
Don't go.
Peg
[sees his scissor hands]
Oh, my. What happened to you?
Edward
I'm not finished.
Peg
My, those are your hands? Those are your hands! What happened to you? Where are your parents? Um... Your mother? Your father?
Edward
He didn't wake up.
Peg
Are you alone? Do you live up here all by yourself? What happened to your face? No, I won't hurt you. But at the very least, let me give you a good astringent. And this will help to prevent infection. What's your name?
Edward
Edward.
Peg
Edward... I think you should just come home with me.
Jim
[after seeing Edward accidentally cut Kim]
Hey! Now you've done it!
Kim
It was just a scratch Jim, really!
Peg
What's going on?
Jim
Call a doctor, he skewered Kim!
Kim
He didn't skewer me!
Jim
[bullying and shoving Edward]
You can't touch anything without destroying it! Who the hell do you think you are hanging around here, huh? Get the hell outta here! Go you freak!
Jim
[Edward leaves]
He tried to hurt you.
Kim
No, he did not, and you know it!
Jim
Are you nuts?! I just saw him!
Kim
Jim, I don't love you anymore. I just want you to go, okay? Just go.
Jim
Are you serious? I'm gonna lose you to that? He isn't even human.
Kim
Just get out of here, okay?! Just go!
[Jim walks away]
