A Dangerous Revelation in a Troubling Situation

Sandy: Well, aren't you going to tell me about it?

Jeffrey: OK. It's a strange world, Sandy. Dorothy Vallens is married to a man named Don. They have a son. I think the son and the husband have been kidnapped by a man named Frank. Frank has done this to force Dorothy to do things for him. I think she wants to die. I think Frank cut the ear I found off her husband as a warning for him to stay alive. Frank, is, uh, a very dangerous man.

Sandy: My god. Shouldn't you tell my father?

Jeffrey: No. I can't do that. I can't prove any of this. I found out my information illegally. You could get into a lot of trouble.

Sandy: You saw a lot in one night. It's a strange world.

Jeffrey: Why are there people like Frank? Why is there so much trouble in this world?

Sandy: I don't know. I had a dream. In fact, it was the night I met you. In the dream, there was our world and the world was dark because there weren't any robins, and the robins represented love. And for the longest time, there was just this darkness. And all of a sudden, thousands of robins were set free, and they flew down and brought this Blinding Light of Love. And it seemed like that love would be the only thing that would make any difference. And it did. So I guess it means there is trouble til the robins come.

Jeffrey: You're a neat girl.

Sandy: [laughs] So are you. I mean, you're a neat guy.
