• Rita : How's it coming?

  Abe : I'm... blocked. I can't write.

  Rita : Why?

  Abe : I don't know, I... I can't *write* 'cause I... I can't breathe.

  Rita : What would get you breathing again?

  Abe : [sighs]  I... you know... I don't... I'm too... *the will to breathe*, inspiration you know.

  Rita : You need a muse.

  Abe : I've never needed a muse before.

  [sighs] 

  Rita : I hope you're not going to send me back out into the rain without sleeping with me.

  Abe : I'm trying to write.

  Rita : You're blocked. I'm going to unblock you or are you becoming infatuated with that student you spend so much time with?

• Rita : When I heard you were coming here, I had fantasies that we'd meet and something special would happen.
