Meredith- Yes, honey?
J- I'm afraid that I have some bad news to tell you...would you mind sitting down for a minute?
M- Yeah...sure, What is it?
J - Well...it's about us. I...just can't be the person you want me to be anymore. I have tried, very hard to talk the way you like; walk the way you like; even drink the way you want me to drink, and it just doesn't feel....RIGHT any more...
M- Right!? WHAT doesn't feel right?! What do you mean it doesn't feel right , James? I thought...
J -See?! That's just it. Right there. Everything you say starts with " I " thought, or " I " would like, or " I " hate it when, or...or....I just can't see this going anywhere for ME?! Not like this...

M- Poland?!! What the fuck are you talking about?! Poland?! Where the fuck did Po...
J - MY BROTHER lives in Poland and...that's where the fuck I'm going...so...I figure I should at least tell you before I go.
M - Wait a sec...no, no, no... What the fuck did you just say to me? I can't believe what I just heard you say! Did you just say that you're moving to Poland?!! James...if you don't start making sense this instance...I swear I'm gonna...
J - MEREDITH!!
M - (gasp)
J - Goodbye...
M - But...
(door slams...foot steps walking away...car starts and drives into the distance)
