Scenes with Seymour

P Paul
[Seymour is trying to interest a fellow collector in a record he's selling]
It has a large center hole and a hair crack.
Seymour
But the crack is so tight, it's completely inaudible.
P Paul
But a tight hair crack is just that—a crack. I don't collect cracked records. I only pay premium on mint records. Seymour, you know that. Please.
Enid
[Paul walks away. Enid, who has been listening, goes up to Seymour]
So, what was all that about enlarged holes and tight cracks?
Seymour
So, was that your boyfriend?
Enid
Josh? He's nobody's boyfriend. He's just this guy that Becky and I like to torture.
Enid
You know what my number-one fantasy used to be?
Seymour
What?
Enid
I used to think about one day, just not telling anyone and going off to some random place. And I'd just... disappear. And they'd never see me again. Do you ever think about stuff like that?
Seymour
I guess I probably did when I was your age.
Enid
You know what we should do? We should just get in your car right now and just drive off. Just find some totally new place and start a whole new life. **** everybody.
Seymour
I'm, uh, I'm not in any good condition to drive.
Enid
I'm serious! I'm just so sick of everybody. Why can't I just do what I want?
Seymour
What do you want?
Enid
What do you want? [a pause. They look into each other's eyes] Don't you like me?
