𝐑𝐎𝐙𝐎𝐍𝐃𝐀 𝐕𝐎𝐈𝐂𝐄𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑
But somewhere along the way,
I forgot that if u care about someone, u need to pay attention to their lines, too.
Rozonda leafs through mail, sees plain paper note; opens it; shot of note saying "Ballet roof" in Lisa handwriting
BALLET STUDIO
𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐖𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐑
Rozonda walks onto roof, towards ledge Lisa is sitting on
𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐀
I didn't know where else to meet.
𝐑𝐎𝐙𝐎𝐍𝐃𝐀
Lisa, I'm sorry I took the photo.
You've been betrayed by so many people, and then I go and —
𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐀
Cross the line? gets down off ledge, pulls out Rozonda letter from jacket pocket
I read your four-page manifesto – well, at least the first two pages, anyway.
𝐑𝐎𝐙𝐎𝐍𝐃𝐀
Okay, look, u were right.
I haven't been thinking about anyone but myself.
I have been so consumed with trying to figure out who did this that
I push people away.
I turn them into a case.
But I won't bother u anymore.
This time, for real; u can go back to the warehouse, and I promise that
I will never say anything to anyone.
𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐀
That'd be great.
𝐑𝐎𝐙𝐎𝐍𝐃𝐀
Yeah.
𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐀
But...as much as I keep saying "Stay away,"
I...keep showing up, too.
You know, the truth is...
I don't really have anyone to contact.
You know, I mean, there's Tupac but that's Tupac And, uh...you've seen me
When I don't want anyone to see me, and u still haven't run.
𝐑𝐎𝐙𝐎𝐍𝐃𝐀
Looks like u haven't run from me either.
Can we start over?
𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐀
Yeah.
𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐖𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐑
Lisa and Rozonda look at photo, continue to talk in background
𝐑𝐎𝐙𝐎𝐍𝐃𝐀 𝐕𝐎𝐈𝐂𝐄𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑
Like I said, being a detective is all about drawing lines, but being human –
I think maybe it's about knowing how and when to cross them...together.
