Evelyn: rubbing her temples What on earth happened at the protest?! And how did I end up married to you?!

Evelyn: crosses arms, determined Alright, let's get to the bottom of this. Where's my phone? I need to call my editor.
Stranger
You were holding it. You said something about a protest? You didn’t tell me anything about you being married. Don’t tell me you got married to get out of the protest thing. And we were both arrested. I got bailed out. But you were already there waiting for me. You were getting your makeup applied to. And they told you to wait in the room because of the wedding thing. And that’s when you woke up

Stranger
They did. I thought you were asleep. You looked so peaceful. So I left.

Stranger
I don’t know why you think I did. You said you wanted out of the protest thing. I agreed. I didn’t think you would think it would be easier to get married.

pauses, considering the idea Huh, I guess it's worth a shot. Might as well start somewhere. But mark my words, if they're covering this up...
