Fatal Attraction Page #4

---

No. Meet me in front of the Robbins

& Hart building tomorrow at six.

Don't disappoint me. Be there.

OK.

This has got to stop.

You should have agreed to see me.

It's over.

There is nothing between us.

You've had your fun,

now you just want a quiet life?

Why are you doing this?

You need help.

- Don't tell me what I need.

- You need a shrink.

I'm not your enemy.

- Why are you trying to hurt me?

- I'm not. I love you.

- You what?

- I love you.

- You don't know me.

- How can you say that?

We spent a weekend together.

You spent a second night.

You must like me.

I was concerned about you.

You read too much into everything.

I have a whole relationship

with someone else.

- I am very happy.

- Whole means complete.

If your life's complete,

why were you with me?

You want to talk about

our imaginary affair?

I'm pregnant.

I saw my gynaecologist on Monday.

Here's his card. You can call him.

You don't?

Use anything? No.

I had a bad miscarriage last year.

I didn't think I could get pregnant.

How do you know it's mine?

Because I don't sleep around.

I apologise.

I'm sorry.

Don't worry.

You won't have to handle this alone.

Handle what?

The abortion. I'll take care of it.

I'll pay for it.

What makes you think

I want an abortion?

- You're not gonna have the baby?

- Why not?

There are plenty of

one-parent families.

- They don't end in divorce.

- I don't have a say in this?

I want this child.

It has nothing to do with you.

I want it whether you're

part of it or not.

Then why are you telling me?

Why not just go ahead and do it?

I was hoping that you

would want to be part of it.

This... This is totally insane.

I'm 36. It may be

my last chance to have a child.

Just think what you're saying.

Just think about it.

We are gonna live with this

for the rest of our lives.

I know that. I've thought of that.

I know how you feel.

It's a big thing.

But it doesn't have to be a problem.

Really, it doesn't.

You play fair with me,

I'll play fair with you.

"He led Agnes and Nellie

into the closet."

"Agnes, Nellie and Oink

giggled in the dark."

"Pearl listened outside the door.

'lt works,' cried Nellie."

"'Of course,' said Oink. 'Look at

the flying dog! ' yelled Agnes."

"Pearl frowned. 'Who cares about

flying dogs? ' she said."

"Nobody heard her."

"'Look out for the worms! '

squealed Agnes."

"'Eek! ' yelled Nellie and Agnes."

"'Look at the monster cockroach! '

yelled Oink. 'Help!"'

You know what I did?

I called the doctor.

Know what he says? "Congratulations!"

I can't even imagine

what she told him.

Anyway, that's not the end of it.

So, after I talked to the doctor,

this morning,

I broke into her apartment.

I know. Me, a lawyer,

breaking and entering.

I wanted to get a handle

on what I'm dealing with.

I wanted to find out if she was

sleeping with somebody else.

I didn't find anything.

Anyway, I didn't find anything.

I don't know anything

about family law.

You've got to help me.

What case does she really have?

Well, it ain't good.

She keeps calling the apartment.

Every time Beth answers the phone,

she hangs up.

I'm scared, Jimmy. I...

I don't want to lose my family.

The facts as alleged are horrendous.

The instrument allegedly used

was an electronic-shock device...

- Operator, may I help you?

- I'm trying to get 555-8129-212.

The recording says it's disconnected.

Just a moment, please.

It's been changed to unlisted.

It's a real emergency.

I need that number.

We can't give out that information.

- Well, f*** you!

- My place or yours?

- I like it. I like it a lot.

- We've been very happy here.

I'd definitely like

to think about it if I could.

- It's very clean.

- Yes.

We have a cleaning lady who comes

in a few times a week.

- I can give you her name as well.

- I'd love that.

There's babysitters galore.

The whole works.

Hi, darling. This is Alex.

I've forgotten your last name.

- Alex Forest.

- This is my husband Dan.

Hi. Glad to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

- Haven't we met somewhere?

- I don't think so.

No, we have. Weren't you

at that party at the Japanese place?

Honey, the exercise book.

Yeah.

You're a lawyer.

And you work for the firm...

What's the name? Anyway...

We've definitely met.

- You have a good memory.

- I never forget a face.

- It's a small world.

- It certainly is.

I gather you're going to the country?

- Moving to the country?

- Yes.

Have you found a place?

We found a place in Bedford.

Do you know it?

- It's beautiful.

- Yes.

You'll move of here

almost immediately?

Actually, we wanted to do

some remodelling first.

I guess looking for a place

right now?

Yeah. I'd like to settle in.

Alex is expecting a baby.

That's...

Will you excuse me?

I have some work to do.

I better run, too.

Thank you for the tea

and showing me the apartment.

- You're very welcome.

- I like it. I really like it.

- We've been happy here.

- I'd like to think about it.

I'll give you our number

so you can call us direct.

Thank you.

- I'll keep in touch.

- Great.

- Bye-bye.

- Goodbye.

She seemed really interested.

She didn't mention a husband.

I get the feeling she's on her own.

- What is it? You seem down.

- No, no. I'm just tired.

- Hello?

- Hi, it's me.

Who?

You know damn well!

Come on, let me in. I want to talk.

So now you want to talk?

What can I get you?

I've got Scotch, vodka,

a nice Chablis...

Cut the sh*t, will you? Just cut it!

I don't know what you're up to,

but it's gonna stop right now.

No. It's going to go on,

until you face your responsibilities.

What responsibilities?

I'm pregnant.

I'm gonna have our child.

That's your choice, honey.

It has nothing to do with me.

I want to be a part of your life.

So you do it by showing up

at my apartment?

You won't answer my calls.

You changed your number.

I'm not gonna be ignored.

You don't get it.

You just don't get it.

Don't you remember our weekend?

Wasn't that wonderful?

Why can't we just be like that again?

I know you feel it, too.

What are you so afraid of?

Hey, don't flatter yourself.

Hit me. If you can't f*** me,

why don't you hit me?

You're so sad. You know that?

Lonely and very sad.

Don't you ever pity me,

you smug bastard.

I'll pity you because you're sick.

Why? Because I won't allow you

to treat me like a slut

you can bang a few times

and throw in the garbage?

I'm gonna be the mother

of your child.

I want a little respect.

You want respect?

- Respect!

- What are you doing?

Please don't go.

I didn't mean it. I'm sorry.

I'll tell your wife.

You tell my wife, I'll kill you.

It only takes a phone call!

Hello? Hello?

Got it.

Guys, that's on the second door

to the left, over here.

You could've stayed

in the apartment.

Dan was in such a hurry to get out

of New York. Momma, that's you.

Lord, put it away.

All right, easy on the door-frame.

Good. Nice. Just like that.

I got it. Sorry. I got it.
