Transcript
Casey points at Ben as they face each other on a wet city street; Ben turns toward her. Casey: “AND YOU... TELEPORTED OR WHATEVER THAT WAS.” Ben: “I DIDN’T TELEPO-” Casey: “THEN HOW’D YOU GET FROM BEHIND ME TO IN FRONT OF ME? HM?” Ben: “I-” Casey grabs Ben’s jacket as he turns toward her. Ben: “OKAY, TECHNICALLY—” Casey: “RIGHT.” Casey gestures toward the storefront and Ben. Casey: “NOW, YOU CAN HAVE YOUR BOX BACK...” Casey: “...BUT YOU, LOVER BOY, OWE ME A STORY FOR THE TROUBLE.”
