 [ Talking about her chief director]

Ben - Should i wait upstairs? Could i wait down here?

Ellie - I'm going to sleep,i have to work tonight. You can stay if you want.

Ben - you didn't have a good night time last night?

Ellie - No,no, i had expectations i guess.

[ Gentle music ]

[Ben] - So did i.

Ellie - Did i somehow not meet them?

Ben - When we worked together, you were, you know, much more pleasant 

 [Chuckles]

Ellie - We were flirting and you really didn't know me well back then.

Ben - That's fair i don't know you. So tell me something, anything? Bout you. [Chuckles].

Ellie - Like what?

Ben - Like where you're from?

Ellie - i told you where am from ask me something better.

Ben - [chuckles] All right, how bout, [ clears throat ]. How about emmm what's is the most interesting place that you've ever had sex, like in public or something?

Ellie - in front of people?

Ben - Yeah, or like, you know, like in the woods.

Ellie - Well, all the working girls have sex in the woods. It's coming of age thing here.

Ben - Oh! That's so primitive.

 [ Both laughing ]

Hey, you know, since we're stuck here you know, figured I'd just throw this out here..... I know,i could've been, you know, a little more generous last night, you know Yeah?

Ellie - Yeah!

Ben - .... So..... How do you want me to?

Ellie - What? [Gentle pitch] 

Ben - You know, want me to take care of you? You know lick the cat, paint the wall, unpack the box.

Ellie - Oh my God!

Ben - What! 

Ellie - Shut the fuck up.

Ben - Oh, but i don't get a second chance now?

Ellie - [NO]. [Ben sighs]

Ellie - What are you even....

Ben - I just, I didn't think you'd actually be offended by that.

Ellie - I'm making coffee, do you want some? 

Ben - Sure!

Ellie - [sighs] you're a guy.

Ben - i resent statement like that.

Ellie - like what?

Ben - To assume that I'm just driven uncontrollably by sex? I bet you think that every dude who talks to you is hitting on you, even when he says simple shit like good morning.

Ellie - No, but i do think many guys under most circumstances would have sex with most women.

Ben - and you think we can help that?

Ellie - Yeah i think you can. [ Sighs ] Let's drop that.

I've got a question for you in your movie,

Ben - Yeah.

Ellie - Why did you decide on the ending?

Ben - How do you mean?

Ellie - Well, life isn't like that. I don't think that there's just one special person out there for us.

Ben - Yeah, it's a nice thought, though isn't it?

Ellie - I don't think it is such a nice thought really. I mean there's so many people in the universe, it's sad to that we can connect with only one.

Ben - So you didn't like the movie?

Ellie - No, i told you i did.

Ben - And you weren't just telling me what you thought i wanted to hear?

Ellie - Wow, I didn't know that you were so insecure.

Ben - And you're not?

Ellie - Mmm, no my mom raised me to be a little confident.

Ben - And your dad? 

Ellie] - he didn't raise me.

Ben - Yep [Laughs] are there?....

Ellie - not all girls who came from a broken home have daddy issues, okay?

Ben - Well yes, come on that's not what i meant. Uh! Look, I'm gonna have to chalk this phone up to a loss if they don't get back to you soon.

[ Stands up ]...

Ellie - Still nothing...
