Caravaggio You're in love with him, aren't you? Your poor patient. You think he's a saint because of the way he looks? Hana I don't think he is. I'm not so in love with him. I'm in love with ghosts. And so is he. He's in love with ghosts. Caravaggio I'm one of his ghosts and he wouldn't even know. Hana I'll probably marry him. Almásy Really? That's sudden. Hana My mother always told me I would summon my husband by playing the piano. Hana Then I tell myself he spends all day searching, in the night he wants to be found. Kip I do. I do want you to find me! I do want to be found.
