Dangerous Liaisons

The Complexity of Love and Happiness

Madame de Rosemonde I'm sorry to say this, but, those who are most worthy of love are never made happy by it.

Madame Marie de Tourvel But, why? Why should that be?

Madame de Rosemonde Do you still think men love the way we do? No... men enjoy the happiness they feel. We can only enjoy the happiness we give. They are not capable of devoting themselves exclusively to one person. So to hope to be made happy by love is a certain cause of grief.

Susie Diamond Just like that, huh? I come all the way down here, break a heel, and you’re not going to give me a chance because I have gum on my lip and I’m a few minutes late?

Frank Baker You’re an hour and a half late. Do you want me to say it again?

Susie Diamond It’s not exactly bewitching me. Besides, you’re not going anywhere.

Frank Baker I beg your pardon?

Susie Diamond Intuition, I’ve had a hunch about this all day. Only I gotta say, in my mind it was a little more glamorous. And anyway, if I’m so late how come you’re still here?

Comparing Feelings to Parsley

Frank Baker Okay, let's hear it. We trashed the Avedon, the Luau Lounge - what's our beef with Feelings'?

Susie Diamond Nothing... except who cares? I mean, does anybody really need to hear Feelings again in their lifetime? It's like parsley, okay? Take it away, nobody's going to know the difference.

Frank Baker Feelings is not parsley!

Susie Diamond Frank, to you Feelings may be goddamn filet mignon, but to me, it's parsley. It's less than parsley.

Frank Baker Look, Feelings, despite what you may think of it, has always been one of the bright moments of the show, and a consistent crowd-pleaser, and consequently we have an obligation to perform it. If we didn't, the audience would be disappointed.

Susie Diamond Oh. Well, they weren't exactly crying their eyes out on New Year's Eve.

Frank Baker You passed over Feelings'?

Susie Diamond Yeah. Oh, and Bali Hai went out with the bathwater, too.

Frank Baker Ah ha. I see. The cat goes away for the night, and the mice take over the orchestra.

Susie Diamond Hey! I ain't no mouse.

Frank Baker That's right - you're parsley.

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania

Confronting Consequences of Unleashing Power

Janet van Dyne I blew up his core — cut him off from time — and trapped us both down here forever. But I gave him back enough. Now that he had his suit back, he became what he always was — a conqueror. He's got weapons and technology centuries beyond anything we can dream of. He took his prison, and made it his empire. I spent years fighting him, running from him, hiding from him — and then you saved me. You brought me home. But I didn't deserve it — I unleashed a monster on this place — and ran away.

Dangerous Liaisons

A Confession of Unexpected Love

Madame Marie de Tourvel I'm beginning to think you may have planned the whole exercise.

Vicomte de Valmont I had no idea you were staying here! Not that it would have disturbed me in the slightest if I had known. You see, until I met you, I had only ever experienced desire. Love, never.

Madame Marie de Tourvel That's enough.

Vicomte de Valmont No, no, you made an accusation and you must allow me the opportunity to defend myself! Now, I'm not going to deny that I was aware of your beauty. But the point is, this has nothing to do with your beauty. As I got to know you, I began to realize that beauty was the least of your qualities. I became fascinated by your goodness. I was drawn in by it. I didn't understand what was happening to me. And it was only when I began to feel actual, physical pain every time you left the room that it finally dawned on me: I was in love, for the first time in my life. I knew it was hopeless, but that didn't matter to me. And it's not that I want to have you. All I want is to deserve you. Tell me what to do. Show me how to behave. I'll do anything you say.

Susie Diamond Yeah. Frank’s done great. He’s got the wife, the kids, the little house in the suburbs. Meanwhile his brother’s sitting in a shitty apartment with a sick dog, Little Orphan Annie, and a chip on his shoulder as big as a Cadillac.

Jack Baker Listen to me, princess. We fucked twice. That's it. Once the sweat dries, you still don't know shit about me. Got it?

Susie Diamond I know one thing. While Frank Baker was home putting his kids to sleep last night, little brother Jack was out dusting off his dreams for a few minutes. I was there. I saw it in your face. You're full of shit. You're a fake. Every time you walk into some shitty daiquiri hut, you're selling yourself on the cheap. Hey, I know all about that. I'd find myself at the end of the night with some creep and tell myself it didn't matter. And you kid yourself that you've got this empty place inside where you can put it all. But you do it long enough and all you are is empty.

Usually whatever the guy was into. Got a set of socket wrenches once. Believe it? The guy looked like he’d just given me four dozen roses. But I stayed at the Hartford once. You should see the rooms. All satin and velvet. And the bed. Royal blue, trimmed in lace clean as snow. Hard to believe sleeping in a room like that don’t change your life. But it don’t. The bed may be magic, but the mirror isn’t. You wake up the same old Susie.
