Alexis and Mandy in “Limelight”

Alexis

[ranting] The thing about my boyfriend is, I thought I was being so grown-up. Moving in with him, getting my own place, but now, it's my whole life. And I'm pretty sure I've made a huge mistake. Do you know why I'm helping him with his grant application? Because if he get it, he'll have to travel.

That is messed up. You need to tell him.

Alexis

Tell him what? That I changed my mind? I don't want a relationship? We have a lease!

That's romantic.

Alexis

And he doesn't deserve it. He hasn't done anything wrong. It-Oh! And then there's my dad. What do I tell him, huh? That he was right all along? That I wasn't ready? [Gives a forced laugh]

[sighing] I wish I would've said that. I wasn't ready for soooo many things.

Alexis

Do you ever look back on something you've done, and it's like someone else is doing it?

You're kidding, right?

Alexis

Right. [sighs] Sorry, I...haven't had anyone to talk to.

Clearly
