American Psycho II: All American Girl Page #3

Sort of like Robin Hood, you know?

God, I think I need some professional help.

Rachael, have you ever been

to a psychiatrist before?

No.

-No, how does it work?

-It works like this.

You want answers,

so we get together weekly,

and we ask the questions that

will lead you to your answers.

All right?

I could tell you anything,

and you'd still never know me.

You could, and that's your choice.

But why would you lie to me?

Because I don't expose my

Achilles' heel to anyone.

-Why do you say that?

-I just need to be on watch.

If I am not looking out for

number one, then who is?

It's a dog-eat-dog-world out there,

and my future depends on not

getting eaten by the other dogs.

I have schedules, appointments and dreams

that only I can fulfill.

No one is going to do that for me.

Who do you think is keeping you

from achieving these goals?

-Other people.

-What people?

Anyone who gets in my way.

If you could be anyone in the

world, except yourself,

who would that be?

Elizabeth McGuire.

Elizabeth McGuire? Who's she?

She's Professor Starkman's present TA.

And the next in line to go to Quantico.

-And Quantico is?

-My goal.

-My destiny.

-I see.

Have you ever wanted something so bad

that you'd do anything to get it?

Sure.

Go on.

And that's why I went to West Washington.

I have always known that, really,

there were only three other people

who could steal the TA position away from me.

What happens if you don't get the position?

I can't even consider that.

Failure is not an option.

I will get the position.

-How can you be so sure?

-Because I am.

-Why don't we stop there?

-Okay.

My secretary will get your billing info.

Okay.

So, same time next week?

-You bet.

-Okay.

Starkman.

Hey, Bobby. It's Eric.

Hey, Eric. What's up?

I just had a first time session

with one of your students.

Wow, wow, wow...

Aren't we violating some sort

of privacy code here?

Yes and no. I will tell you what...

I won't tell you the name,

if you promise not to say it

once you have figured it out.

-Is that a deal?

-Okay. Fire away.

All right.

I think I have identified this

person as a textbook sociopath.

It's a prerequisite for getting

into college in the first place.

Tell me about it. Still, this

girl has no concept of reality

or the difference between right or wrong.

A girl.

Mmm, the plot thickens.

She's obsessed with becoming

your assistant next semester.

If that's her obsession,

it's no big deal.

These kids think I am their

ticket to the FBI.

Just keep your eyes open.

This girl--

she scared me.

Jesus, if she's that dangerous,

tell me her name

before she turns up in class

with an AK-47.

I can't do that. I have already

broken the law by placing this call.

Just be aware this student's in your class.

What exactly do you mean, "be aware"?

25 years in the FBI...turn your radar on.

Just make sure she doesn't get out of hand.

-She's identified three of her peers--

-Dr. Daniels?

-Okay, okay, Mother.

-Mom?

I have got to go, I have got an appointment.

I love you. I do.

Okay, I will see you this weekend. Bye.

Rachael?

I am so sorry to disturb you.

I didn't realize you were on the phone

-and your secretary wasn't there.

-It's okay.

I just left my keys here.

I am such a textbook nut case sometimes.

I'd probably lose my head if

it wasn't screwed on.

Oh, there they are.

It's so nice that you stay in

touch with your mom.

-How old is she?

Wow.

72, that's a great age.

So many new and exciting things,

the golden years.

Grandchildren?

No. I am--

My wife and I never had children.

Was she not able to?

Actually, we're divorced.

I have another patient coming in soon.

I have to prepare for him.

So I will have to ask you to leave.

Which is it, Eric?

An appointment downtown or a

patient in your office?

It's not nice to lie to your

dear old mom.

See you next week.

After my session with Eric,

I really needed some therapy.

That guy just about drove me nuts.

So, I went back to something

my dad always said,

"nothing like a change of

scenery to clear your head,

to ease the burden of a busy schedule."

Besides,

tonight's the Behavioral

Sciences party at the Dean's.

I have to look good.

I want to be dressed to kill.

Sometimes she feels so sad

And other times feels twice as bad

When the tears are in her eyes

She never cries

Ordinary girl

I know

We're different

But I am stranger in the world

Ordinary girl

Ordinary.

-Excuse me?

-Bite me, Barbie.

The Anthony Perkins character

in Psycho was modeled on Ed Gein.

My heart rate nearly triples when I get there

and see the vultures have

descended upon Starkman.

He broke the mold because he only

killed two people in his entire career.

I must have lost track of time running on.

I had planned to get here early to get

as much time with Starkman as possible.

And now I am late. This is a disaster.

B*tch!

...for Leatherface in The Texas

Chainsaw Massacre--

-Hello, Miss Brown.

-I will be right back.

It's good to see you.

-Hey, how is it going?

-Hey!

How was your date with Brian?

Fine. Short. I don't know.

Short? How short was he?

I mean, "it."

We didn't get that far.

He went home after dinner.

What do you mean? Why did

you come to borrow a rubber,

-if he went home after dinner?

-What's up with the third degree?

I am just confused. Did you

guys get it on or not?

It's none of your business.

-Can we drop this, please?

-Whatever.

Sometimes I don't understand you.

It's like you're not even here.

What did you do last night?

-Bobby came over for--

-Cassandra!

I am sorry. Professor Starkman

came over for a study session.

And let me assure you, it was

definitely not short.

I am going to vomit.

What are you smiling at, freak?

Come here.

Bob--I mean the professor,

said I am a shoo-in for the TA position.

I wasn't supposed to tell anyone,

but since we are so close...

I was going to burst.

Now I get to spend all this

time with my sweetie.

And his wife will think we're working.

Wait, maybe I will go to Quantico.

How great would that be?

Just don't tell anyone, okay?

-Not even Brian.

-Don't worry.

Your secret's safe with me.

This party's such a dud.

Let's blow it off and you give

me the details.

Perfect. Let me talk to Starkman,

and we will go to Jittery Joe's

for coffee.

No! It's way too crowded.

You don't want anyone to know

about you and Bobby.

Let's grab some wine and go to

your room.

That sounds great!

Just make sure you don't tell anyone, okay?

-Don't let me down.

-Don't worry,

I would never let you down.

Like I said, Cassie,

student-teacher relationships

just never work out.

It's Cassandra,

I can't get to the phone,

so leave a quickie

and I will get back to you.

Hello Cassandra. Professor Starkman here.

Listen, it's 11:
25 and you

missed your study session.

Call me back to reschedule.

Doctor Daniels?

I am sorry to drop in without

an appointment,

but there is something on my mind.
