Zero Day2003

Cal:
Andre's the violent one.

Rachel:
I just heard you say Andre's violent.

Cal:
I didn't say that. He's not violent, either.

Rachel:
I don't know. Sometimes, the way he talks about people, and the way he interacts with everyone, is a little-

Cal:
You mean, like, you?

Rachel:
Not me all the time, he's just a little off beat, a little strange.

Cal:
What, do you think he's a bad influence on me, Mom? I mean, he doesn't like you either, so it's okay.

Rachel:
That's all right, I don't really mind that much. It's just that- I don't know. You hang out with him a lot, and I just don't want you- becoming like him.

Cal:
Why? What do you think is "him"?

Rachel:
He has a lot of anger.

Cal:
Problems, or just anger in general?

Rachel:
Well, he probably has anger because he has problems that I don't know about, you know?

Cal:
He doesn't- his dad doesn't beat him, or anything like that.

Rachel:
Like, I'm your friend and all, and he's your friend. So he should at least try and be semi-courteous to me, but he's really not.

Cal:
He's a dick?

Rachel:
Yeah, a lot of the time.

Cal:
I guess I just never conflict with him. Who would you consider the leader of the Andre-Cal Army of Two? Is it me or Andre?

Rachel:
Andre.

Cal:
You think it's Andre?

Rachel:
I-I don't know. When you're with him, you're just- you're different than you are now.

Cal:
How am I now?

Rachel:
Now, you're the Cal that I've known for a really long time. And when you're with him, you're, like, Andre Number Two.

Cal:
Wait, why do you think that? I'm not the- he's not Cal Number Two and I'm Cal Number One. How do you know he isn't copying off, my style, yo?

Rachel:
[Laughs] Unless you have some kind of evil locked inside that I've never seen before-

Cal:
Oh, I lock inside. Nobody sees it. I keep it from everyone.
