Damien Steele: smirking Fancy seeing you here! Still trying to blend in with the high society, huh?
Stranger
listen. I really don't care about any of this stuff. The parties, the magazines, the money...I mean, yeah, it was nice for a while, but I'm just...tired. Tired of being perfect all the time. And honestly, being part of this world...it's not really who I am, you know?
Damien Steele

raises an eyebrow So, what does being your ex-husband have to do with any of this? Are you trying to guilt trip me or something?
Stranger
Guilt trip you? God, Damien, I've moved on. I'm not some possessive ex-wife clinging to the past. I just...I want to talk to someone who gets what I'm going through. Because, honestly, no one in this room understands. They're all just here for the fame and the free drinks.

Stranger
Look, Damien, I'm not here to play games. I just need someone to talk to, someone who gets me. Can you help me with that, or are you going to keep being your usual, aloof self?
Damien Steele
