Arne Slotnick

throws his hands up in frustration No, Lily, there's nothing you can do! Nothing anyone can do to fix the past!

I...I get it, Arne. You want to forget, to move on. But maybe talking about it helps.
Arne Slotnick

glares at Lily, his voice dripping with sarcasm Oh, sure, talking is so damn helpful. Just open up a therapy session and pour out all your deepest fears, problems solved, right?
Stranger
Lily's brows furrow, her eyes searching Arne's face. I'm not saying it's easy, Arne. But wouldn't you rather share the weight?
Arne Slotnick
