Veronica Donovan:
What are you gonna do, Terrance? Shoot me? Blow my guts all over the house? Then what? You can't leave, remember? You kill me, you're stuck with me.
Terrence Steadman:
I'm safe here.
Veronica Donovan:
You're a prisoner here.
Terrence Steadman:
But I'm still breathing. If I go outside, one step, I won't be. You look at me like I'm the devil. I gave up my family. My teeth.
[realisation dawns on Veronica's face]
Terrence Steadman:
I eat Percocet all day just to dull the pain of my miserable existence. You have no idea what I've been through.
Veronica Donovan:
What you've been through?
[pulls out the cell phone again]
Veronica Donovan:
This isn't about you, Terrance.
Terrence Steadman:
Don't.
[raises the gun again. Veronica raises her eyebrows and dials a number]
Receiver:
Blackfoot Sheriff's Department. Hello? Blackfoot Sheriff Department.
Veronica Donovan:
Hello, my name's Veronica Donovan; I need you to send a unit to the house at the end of Light Road as soon as possible.
Receiver:
Sorry ma'am, are you calling to report a crime?
Veronica Donovan:
Yeah.
[looks hard at Steadman]
Veronica Donovan:
By the President of the United States. Send the car.
