Wish We Did
Prudie: “She had this other trick. So suggest something to me, something, something you’d like to do.”
Trey: “Ok. Let’s get a room.”
Prudie: “Let’s not get a room and just say we did.”
Trey: “And then you’d give up? You weren’t a very persistent kid were you.
Prudie: “Trey, you really shouldn’t come on to me.”
Trey: “Why? Because you’re my teacher?”
Prudie: “We can’t do this.”
Trey: “Let’s get out of here. We can go back to my place, we’ll just talk.”
Prudie: “Let’s not and just wish we did.”

[Prudie walks into the living room, where Dean is playing a video game, holding a copy of Persuasion in her hands.]Prudie: Will you do me a favor? Will you read this?Dean: Isn’t that what your special little book club is for?Prudie: I really want you to read it… please, Dean.Dean: Prudie, I feel like you want me to be something I’m not. I just walk around being me. I don’t pretend to be anything else. You’re just setting me up for a test you don’t want me to pass.Prudie: No, no, this isn’t a test. This is something to share.Dean: Why don’t you just tell me what it’s about?Prudie: It’s about these two people who used to love each other, and they don’t anymore. And it’s about how they persuade themselves to give it another try… Look, I can get you started off… Okay? “Sir Walter Elliot, of Kellynch Hall…”[She continues to read the first page.]Dean: Prudie, come on… you’re not really going to read this all aloud… all right. One page.
