Dialogue

Dr. Munce: How much time did you spend at the dresser compared to last week?

Telly: Less.

Dr. Munce: How much less?

Telly: I don't know exactly.

Dr. Munce: You wanna make a guess, roughly, for the week?

Telly: Oh, not even an hour a day.

Telly: Why did you change the picture? You replaced our book with an empty book. [shouts] You erased our son!

Jim: I didn't change anything! They were always blank!

Dr. Munce: Telly, you never had a son. Sometimes people go around and invent alternate lives, with imagined friends, and imagined families.

Telly: Stop it! Why are you doing this? I am not making him up!

Jim: I think it's great, you're starting to write again. What's your book going to be about?

Telly: Psychotic women, and the men who love them.

Telly: At first I thought it had something to do with the plane crash. Remember when that TWA plane crashed over Long Island? Everybody thought it was a missile, friendly fire, or some type of government cover-up.

Ash: Yeah, I remember that.

Telly: But then I thought, you know, 'How could the government erase our memories?' It's just not possible. So...

Ash: What?

Telly: So you don't think I'm out of my mind?

Ash: I don't anymore.

Telly: [Ash is hitting the NSA agaent they have strapped to a chair while questioning him for answers] Don't do that!

Ash: What, this? [Ash hits him again]

A Friendly Man: There are worse things than forgetting.

Telly: No, there aren't.

Telly: I'm Telly. Sam's mom.

Ash: I'm Ash. I think we met before.
