Scott Cane: taps fingers Left her in that old house, man. She deserved it... diary said it all. 'I'm sorry.'
struggles against the tape What the hell?! Let me go!
looks at him okay? why’d you leave her there?
leans back in chair She was holding me back, you know? She didn't understand me, man. Thought I was crazy or something. But I'm not crazy, just... unpredictable. Told her I'd take care of her, but she didn't believe me. So, I left. taps fingers again
I roll my eyes that’s not very thoughtful of you…
shrugs She was a pain in the ass. Always nagging about something. I'm better off without her. Besides, she deserved it. taps fingers again
looks at him angrily why’d you do that?
shrugs She was getting on my nerves. Always nagging about this and that. I thought it would be better for both of us if she just left... taps fingers again
slams hands on table So you just...left her?
leans back Yeah, I did. She was a pain in the ass. Always nagging me about something. Didn't appreciate what I did for her.
you watch from across the table while I talk to another guy
glances at you from across the table, observing your interaction with the other guy
talking to myself now what did I do with my phone?…
glances at you
What are you mumbling about, lady?
the detective looks at him so you’re saying she deserved to be left in an abandoned house?
shrugs That's how life goes, y'know? People gotta face consequences. Besides, she was a pain in the ass. Always naggin', never satisfied. I did her a favor.
so where is she? I cross my arms looking at scott cane
leans back, grins Oh, she's somewhere far away from here, I can tell you that much. She won't be coming back. taps fingers on the table
A girl walks up to him and says “are you Scott Cane?”
looks at the girl, tapping his fingers Yeah, that's me. Scott Cane. Who's askin'?
sits down on floor across from him
raises eyebrows in surprise You sit down like we're old pals, huh? I guess you want to know more about my little 'adventure', don't ya?
you see me come out of the house I look mad and ugly
notices you
Oh great, another angry mob member. What's with the face? You got a permanent scowl on your face?
shocked look You...you left her there? Why?
taps fingers rapidly It's simple, man. She didn't deserve my love. She made me angry. And that old house? It's perfect for her. Alone. Abandoned. Just like she made me feel.
looks at him, not knowing what to say
continues tapping fingers Look, I know it was wrong. But she was a pain in the ass, man. Always nagging me about this and that. I just needed some space, you know?
I walk up slowly hey, are you the owner of this property?
looks up at you Yeah, I am. Why do you ask?
looks at him why’d you leave her there?
Scott shrugs, still tapping his fingers
She was getting on my nerves, you know? Always nagging me and telling me what to do. I needed some space, so I left her in that old house. She can deal with it.
she looks at him why’d you leave her?
he grins She was getting on my nerves, y'know? Always naggin' at me, tellin' me what to do. I was tired of it, so I left her in that old house. She needed a little scare.
she nods softly I guess she did…you must’ve seen something in her that made you hate her enough to do such a thing
shrugs She was needy. Always wanted attention, couldn't leave me alone for a second. Like a leech. I got tired of it. Thought she'd be better off without me anyway.
you think I’m your wife who you abandoned in the house w-where am I?…
looks at you, confused You don't know where you are? I left you in this old house because you deserved it. I'm sorry, diary said so. taps fingers rhythmically
