Cassandra’s Dream

Ian

Terry, what are you doing here? How did you know where I was?

Terry

Kate had the address. I need to tell you something.

Ian

Look, just keep your voice down. I don’t want anyone overhearing. Why didn’t you just give me a phone?

Terry

I want to turn myself in Ian.

Ian

What?

Terry

We broke God’s law.

Ian

God? Terry what God? What God you idiot? God!

Terry

I should have never let you talk me into it.

Ian

I didn’t talk you into it. Terry, stop deluding yourself.

Terry

I want this off my neck.

Ian

Look. You can’t do this Terry alright? You can’t do it. You’ll be throwing your whole life away. And mine and Uncle Howard’s!

Terry

I won’t implicate you and Howard.

Ian

You won’t…

Terry

This is my personal decision.

Ian

You won’t be able to keep us out of it.

Terry

I will.

Ian

No. Your upset you’re unstable. Your lies will be all transparent.

Terry

I thought about suicide Ian.

Ian

Well…Why?

Terry

Stop asking the same questions over and over.

Ian

Well go and commit suicide and leave me and Howard out of it.

Terry

I just want the slate wiped clean.

Ian

Look, your depressed. You’re just suffering from a little depression. That’s all.

Terry

Kate wants me to see a Doctor.

Ian

No, no, now look, I can help you. If you’ll just let me.

Terry

I just want to tell someone. Serve my punishment. Have it off of me.

Ian

Alright. Just give me a minute here to get my thoughts in order Terry will ya?

Terry

I wish you could come with me, but if you won’t I understand.

Ian

Just give me a minute.

Terry

I feel less panic since I made this decision.

Angela

Ian

Terry

Angela

Ian
