[Jules gets call from an unknown number]
Hello?
Look, I know you probably don’t wanna talk to me, but I'm about to be outside your house and I really need to speak to you.
I don’t care.
[She hangs up the phone and immediately gets a series of text message from Nate]
"it's about my dad.
and you.
i just want you to be able to protect yourself.
im out front."
[Jules thinks for a moment, then grabs a box cutter from her room before she meets Nate in his truck. Nate offers her a bottle of beer.]
No, thank you.
It’s good to see you. I know you hate me. I’ve done a lot of shitty things, but um… No, this isn’t one of ’em.
What do you want?
First… to apologize.
I’m not interested.
I know, but you are gonna be interested in the second thing. Unfortunately for you, you’re gonna have to hear my apology first. Uh… I’m sorry. For everything that I’ve done to you. [pause] You didn't deserve it. I was, uh… I was trying to protect somebody that didn’t deserve to be protected. [beat] If I could take it all back, I would, but… I did what I did. I found out about you and my dad from… from this disc. [holds up a CD case and gives it to Jules] Yeah, he, uh–He secretly records every encounter he has, and he’s been doing it, well… Well, honestly, as long as I can remember. I stole it from him, and he had a–He had a mental breakdown, and he moved out of the house, so I thought that I would, uh… I thought I’d give it to you, and, you know, you can do with it as you please.
So, there was a camera?
Yes.
And you’ve seen it?
[nods] Yeah.
Have a lot of people seen it?
No, no.
Does he know you’re giving this to me?
No. No, he would fucking kill me.
Is this, like, the only copy, or… is it other places?
I mean, it’s the only one that I know of, yeah.
…Why are you giving this to me?
Honestly, the answer is too stupid and simple. I think it’s better if we just keep it a mystery.
What, did you become, like, a good person?
[shakes his head] Absolutely not, no. I mean, you should’ve seen what I had to do to get it.
[pause] I came out here with a box cutter in my sleeve. You know, in case there was a chance I might have to slit your throat. [Nate just grins] That’s how little I trust you. Well… thank you.
You’re welcome.
...Um, I’m gonna go.
Okay. [grabs Jules' hand] Hey, um… For what it’s worth… everything I ever said was true.
[beat; shrugs] Same here.
