Roman

I think you’ll like California

Lavinia

I can imagine my sunscreen costs going up.

Roman

Right, wouldn’t want that porcelain skin to burn. Don’t worry, Blossom. I’ll help you apply all the sunscreen

Lavinia

Sounds suspiciously like the start of a bad porn film

Roman

Oh, Blossom. Don’t you know there’s no bad porn? Just bad acting.

Lavinia

Right, of course. What was I thinking?

I still can’t believe you rode your bike to California. That’s all the way across the country.

Roman

I’ve done it before, it’s really not that bad. Just me, the open road, and my thoughts.

Lavinia

I can’t imagine. I think I’m too boring to even imagine it.

Roman

I’m adding teaching you how to ride a bike to my to-do list.

Lavinia

My mother will disown me.

Roman

Come on, Vin. Why lie to yourself? I know you had fun on our ride. All that power and freedom? I bet you think about it even now and wonder to yourself, what if.

Lavinia

Okay, I admit it. It was fun. Stop trying to seduce me to come to the dark side.

Roman

Seducing you is half the fun of being on the dark side.
