[Jules sees a tall male figure approach her, thinking that it's Tyler]
Hey... Tyler?
[Jules realizes to her horror that the man is Nate as he gets close to her]
No... No. [turns around to walk away]
No, I'm not trying to hurt you. I'm not... I'm not here to hurt you. [grabs Jules' arm] I know that you have these ideas about me based on the first time that we met, and I understand that... but I'm not the person that you met that night.
Can you let go of me?
[Nate lets go of Jules and follows her as she walks over to a lake]
You know, over the past few weeks... I've spent... every moment of every day getting to know you. At night... I fall asleep to you. And in the morning... I wake up to you. I kinda feel closer to you than I do to anyone in the whole world.
[tearfully] I don't trust you, Nate.
I don't trust you either.
[Jules steps back, but stops when Nate wipes away her tears. He leans down and kisses her.]
[softly] Open your mouth.
Nate...
Wider.
[pause; Nate sticks his thumb in her mouth] Nate. Nate, stop.
God, are you broken inside. And that's precisely why I don't trust you. [pause] Because you're so broken you don't even trust yourself. And that's scary. Not just for you... but for me and for my entire family. [Jules' phone starts vibrating] I wouldn't answer that. You're gonna wanna hear this. Over the last three weeks, you have knowingly produced and distributed child pornography. Including obscene images that were taken on school property. I've compiled all these photos, along with an IP address, and an account that's linked to your name. I don't know if you're familiar with child pornography laws in this state... but they apply to minors just as they apply to adults.
I sent them to you.
No, you sent them to an account of a person that doesn't fucking exist. And I mean, anyone can anonymously report child pornography, right?
[shakes her head] Then, I'd tell them everything.
Okay. You could do that, but um... here's what would definitely happen. You'd end up on a sex offender list. It means no more college. It's gonna be very fucking difficult to find a job. And everywhere you go for the rest of your life, you'll be harassed, and spat at, and treated like a fucking animal. You deserve better than that, 'cause I know you. You're kind. You're smart, you're generous. You got a big heart. You deserve whatever the fuck it is in this world that you want. So keep your head down. Keep your mouth shut. Don't try to ruin my life, and I won't have to ruin yours.
You know what I think? I think you're a fucking faggot, just like your daddy.
[Nate grabs Jules by her hair and pulls her close to him. He softly chuckles as they stare each other down.]
...You have a nice night.
