Vanessa Abrams: [into her cell phone] Hey, Dan.Dan Humphrey: [into his phone] Are you okay? I didn't hear from you when you got in. Is Charlie there?Vanessa Abrams: No, she isn't. I got caught up. I found your book. "Inside by Daniel Humphrey". It's incredible!Dan Humphrey: You went through my stuff? Vanessa, you had no right to do that!Vanessa Abrams: I know. I'm sorry. It was just lying there on your desk so I read it. This has got to be best satire about the Upper East Side since Bonfire of the Vanities. How long have you been working on this?Dan Humphrey: Five years... off and on. Now, put it back where you found it and we can forget you ever found it.Vanessa Abrams: I always thought Serena was the reason you fell into the Upper East Side. But after reading this... it was more then that.Dan Humphrey: Vanessa, seriously... this is none of your business.Vanessa Abrams: You always wanted in... maybe more then Jenny.Dan Humphrey: [sighs] Of course the irony of it is that if I now ever show it to anyone it will permanently guarantee my outsider status forever.Vanessa Abrams: Dan, you know as well as I do that you are, and always will be, an outsider to that drama-filled, scandalous, upper class, snobbish high society life just like me. You can't be an insider and make great art. You have to stand alone to observe it and you must not care who's feelings you hurt or what people will think of you.Dan Humphrey: Those people are my friends. My best friends, now. My family.Vanessa Abrams: Those "people" were never your friends. They use people just like you describe in your book. It's not like they come across worse then you do. And there's a certain someone who might like how she's painted in your book and I'm not talking about Serena. Get it published. Take a stand. Be a great man instead of always being a good boy.[Dan's phone beeps with a text message which reads "I found Charlie"]Dan Humphrey: Serena found Charlie. I need to go. Put the book back and get out of my room... and my life.Vanessa Abrams: Dan, this is important! We need to talk about this. Don't just drop everything and run off to help them. Meet me at the loft or someplace tonight where we can talk.Dan Humphrey: Good bye, Vanessa! Don't ever call, write, or visit me or my friends or family ever again!Vanessa Abrams: When are you going to realize that you are a better person until the day you asked Serena out four years ago?Dan Humphrey: When are you going to realize that I had better life until the day you climbed up my fire escape and interrupted me and Serena four years ago? Good bye, and good riddens![Dan hangs up. Vanessa, teeming with anger, takes his manuscript and exits the loft with it]
