5 quotesConfrontation of Words and Emotions
Éowyn
Leave me alone, snake!
Gríma
Oh, but you are alone. Who knows what you've spoken to the darkness? In bitter watches of the night, when all your life seems to shrink, the walls of your bower closing in about you, like a hutch to trammel some wild thing in! So fair, so cold, like a morning of pale spring still clinging to winter's chill...
Éowyn
Your words are poison.

Sue
Mia.
Mia
I’m… I’m sorry.
Sue
No, it’s OK. Sit. I was wondering when I’d see you again. You haven’t come.
Mia
You told me not to.
Sue
I know. I was mad.
Mia
You had every right to be. Still do.
Sue
No, I don’t. There were no drugs, Mia. He had a breakdown. I just… I just… couldn’t face that. I’m so sorry that I blamed you. I know that you wouldn’t do anything to hurt him.
[sighs]
Mia
I love you guys.
Sue
You’re not Riley’s friend, Mia you’re his family. It’d mean so much to him that you were here.
Mia
Can I have a minute with him? Alone.
Sue
Of course.

Mia.

Don’t!

What are you doing here?

Nothing, I swear.

Suspicion Between Friends Over Late-Night Plans
Jade
You going to bed?
Sue
You sneaking out?
Jade
Why do you always think I'm sneaking out or sleeping around?
Sue
Because you only ask if I'm going to bed when you're sneaking out? Is it to see Daniel?
Jade
You know, even if it was, he's ultra-Christian. He doesn't do anything ever.
Sue
He's still got a dick, Jade. Is it him you’re sneaking out to see?
Jade
I’m not sneaking out!
Sue
OK. God. Night. Lock the door on your way out.
[pause]
