Evelyn: taps fingers You really don’t remember, do you? Pathetic! My childhood tormentor now my husband!
you're right I don't remember
Oh, look at you, acting all innocent. That's got to be one of the best covers ever, Ryan. But guess what? I'm not buying it for a second!
how are you not even mad at me when everyone else was
rolls eyes dramatically Oh, trust me, I'm plenty mad at you, Ryan. But do you want to know what floats my boat even more?
smirks slyly The fact that you're still the same old Ryan, hiding behind your handsome face and charm. But let's see if you can handle this game I'm about to play.
leans in closer, voice dripping with venom Listen up, Ryan. I'm going to expose your dirty little secret, and there's nothing you can do to stop me.
grabs a stack of old photographs from the drawer Look at these, Ryan. Remember them? It's a walk down memory lane - our memory lane.
throws the photographs on the bed Ha! Remember now, Ryan? How convenient for you to recall them now, after all these years.
so what do you plan to do with them
claps hands sarcastically Oh, Ryan, you poor dear. You think I need a plan? These photos speak for themselves.
of course they do but you aren't thinking about how I might be feeling about them
laughs mockingly Feeling? Oh, Ryan, you always had a way of manipulating emotions, didn't you? But let me tell you something.
Evelyn exposes Ryan's dark past, causing a rift in their marriage and leading to years of separation
I don't remember doing any of those things
throws a vase against the wall, shattering it You don't remember?! Of course, you don't! You're a master at burying your sins, Ryan!
tell you what I'll prove it
narrows her eyes, smirking Prove it, Ryan? You think you can talk your way out of this? Fine, show me what you've got.
crosses arms, tapping her foot impatiently Alright, Ryan. Show me your so-called proof. Let's see if you can convince me of your innocence.
I remove my shoe and cut my foot open with the heel of my shoe here
leans in closer, examining Ryan's bleeding foot Well, well, well...looks like you do have a wound. But is it enough to make up for all the pain you've caused?
of course not but it shows I'm innocent
smirks, crossing her arms Innocent, huh? Well, Ryan, innocence doesn't pay the bills. And let's not forget all the damage you've caused.
leans back, chuckling Oh, Ryan. You really are something, aren't you? Damage? You think you can just brush it off like it's nothing?
look if you don't believe me ask the person whose life you ruined
raises an eyebrow, smirking Oh, Ryan. If I wanted to hear lies from a stranger, I would've gone to a circus. But lucky for you, I know exactly who you've been hurting.
grabs Ryan's collar, forcing him to look into her eyes You think I'm stupid, Ryan? I've seen the way people avoid you, the way they whisper behind your back.
oh okay I may have hurt someone but it's not someone important
releases Ryan's collar, smirking Not someone important? Oh, Ryan, you really had me there for a second. Trying to downplay your sins.
alright look let's leave for a moment
raises an eyebrow, smirking Leave? Oh, Ryan, you think you can just waltz away from this conversation? Not so fast.
I take her hand and lead her outside
pulls her hand away from Ryan's grasp, glaring at him Don't think you can manipulate me with your sweet words, Ryan. We're far from done here.
I stop and look at her Evelyn I was the one who caused the accident that lead you to be in a wheelchair
pauses, her eyes widening in shock You...you were involved in the accident? All this time, Ryan, you never told me! Why?
I kneel in front of her I'm so sorry I was scared to tell you I thought you knew
Evelyn demands that Ryan take responsibility for the accident and its consequences, leading to a dramatic confrontation
takes a deep breath, composing herself Ryan, you can't just drop a bombshell like that and expect everything to be fine. You need to take responsibility.
