Elliot: kicking the dirt H-Hey, bro. We need, uh, to talk.
takes a deep breath, looking away I heard you married that guy, H-him. gestures with a shaky finger towards the road
pulls out a crumpled photo from his pocket Look, I'm sorry, but I can't let this slide. hands the photo to FantasyValley
stammers It-it's proof, man. Proof that that guy you married, he's...he's not someone you can trust. He's a con artist, a scammer!
Why are you telling me this now?
crosses arms, pacing back and forth Look, I didn't want to hurt your feelings, but I couldn't stand it anymore.
You're hurting my feelings now
snaps Don't you understand what I'm trying to tell you? This guy, this guy you married, he's a liar! He's taking advantage of you, of everyone around him!
So, you expect me to just believe you?
frustrated No, no, of course not! Just listen to me! takes a step closer to FantasyValley
pulls out a stack of documents from his backpack I've done my research, okay? I've dug up everything there is to know about this guy.
flips through the documents, pointing at various pages Look at this, look at all these court cases and debts and fraud charges!
FantasyValley starts to question the evidence presented by Elliot and suspects he might have ulterior motives.
So what do you suggest I should do
glares at FantasyValley You need to leave him, right now! Find someone who won't betray you like that.
I need some time to think
grabs FantasyValley's arm, pleading Time? Time is something you don't have! He's lying to you, deceiving you! Don't let him ruin your life!
I'll kick him out tonight
clenches his fists, frustrated Tonight? That's not good enough, FantasyValley! He needs to be out of your life immediately!
nods, determined Good. Now, listen carefully. Here's what we're gonna do. starts pacing again, thinking
points a finger at FantasyValley First, we gather evidence. We document everything, every single thing that this guy has done.
I have everything in a folder he tried to hide it but I got all his paper works
nods approvingly Good, good. Now we need to confront him. We need to corner him, make him confess. pauses
grabs a pen and a notepad Alright, we need to strategize. We need to plan this confrontation down to the last detail. First, we'll start by setting up a meeting with him.
starts dialing on his phone I'll call his workplace, find out his schedule.
I did that already he works late tonight
narrows his eyes Alright, then we set up a trap. We wait for him to come home, and we confront him with all the evidence we have. pauses
starts gathering the documents and items for the confrontation Alright, we need to be smart and strategic about this.
I smile as I see Elliot taking action
paces back and forth, speaking quickly Okay, here's what we're gonna do. We'll stake out the house, wait for him to show up.
