KNOX

Statennn.

STATEN

Why are you texting me at two in the morning?

KNOX

I miss you.

STATEN

We saw each other every day this week.

KNOX

I still miss you.

STATEN

I’m going to strangle you.

KNOX

Good luck reaching my neck.

STATEN

I’ll just knee you in the balls. Problem solved.

KNOX

Come on, you know physical pain turns me on.

STATEN

I’m not talking about your depraved masochism with you.

KNOX

That’s fine. I’ll talk about whatever you want as long as I can hear your voice.

STATEN

Call me. Five minutes.

KNOX

Ten.

STATEN

Eight.

KNOX

I’ll take it.

STATEN

KNOX

You said I could call you. Why didn’t you pick up?

STATEN

I didn’t say I’d answer.

KNOX

You drive me crazy, woman.

STATEN

You’re an easy target.

KNOX

Is this your way of flirting with me?

STATEN

Not remotely.

KNOX

I love it when you pretend to hate me.

STATEN

I’m not pretending.

KNOX

Ace, you’re going to be the fucking death of me.
