Annie: Hello.

 

Rhodes: Morning. Sorry, I didn't mean to freak you out.

 

Annie: No, it's okay.

 

Rhodes: I haven't been sitting here that long. Oh.

 

Annie: Sorry, I guess I fell asleep. I didn't mean to sleep over.

 

Rhodes: Don't be silly. I made you a cappuccino.

 

Annie: Made it?

 

Rhodes: Yeah. So, last night was fun.

 

Annie: It was. It was very fun.

 

Rhodes: I had fun. It was fun. If you care to accompany me to the kitchen, the fun may continue. A different kind of fun. But why don't you just get dressed and whatever, and... I left your clothes over there. And I'll see you in there.

 

Annie: Okay.

 

Rhodes: There she is. Your workshop awaits². I know it's a bit crazy, but I popped out and I got a few little baking bits and pieces. Butter, milk. Because I thought that it would be fun for us to bake together today. Obviously³, you will be doing the baking. I will be doing the eating. Because you are the expert.

 

Annie: Yeah, I don't... I don't really wanna... Sorry. You went to all this trouble, but...

 

Rhodes: Come on, I know you haven't done it in a while, but it'll be great. Don't be silly, just get into it. You are so good at it. All right. I get it. It was a bit of a curve⁴ ball.

 

Annie: Yeah, I think I'm going to go. I'm sorry. I should just probably go.

 

Rhodes: Annie, I don't know what you are getting so upset about.

 

Annie: Because you don't know me. You don't know anything about me or my life or...

 

Rhodes: Well, no, because...

 

Annie: I don't know what you're trying to do here. I don't need you to fix me.

 

Rhodes: To fix you?

 

Annie: I don't need any help. I mean, who do you think you are?

 

Rhodes: Jesus, Annie, we had a really good time. And now you are being all...

 

Annie: It's my fault. I shouldn't have come here last night. Last night was a mistake. Fucking hell¹.

 

Rhodes: All right.

 

Phone: Hey, it's Lillian. Leave a message after the beep.

 

Annie: Hey, Lil, it's me. Umm... I'm sure you're probably still a little bit mad at me, but I hope not. Anyway, the excitement still continues with me. I just slept with a cop⁵ that pulled me over and I woke up today, and he was really sweet and nice and cute. So, naturally, I ran out as fast as I could. What's wrong with me? Umm...Anyway, I know you are busy and stuff⁶, so just call me when you get a chance. I'd love to talk this out with you when you can. Okay, bye.
