Unknown:
Hello, this is Gia
Hey, Ms. Ramires
Cop Cooper:
Mr. Daniel Gillies
By the way, Cooper is your maiden name, yeah?
Cop Cooper:
Correct
Have you ever been married before?
You've seen my record, haven't you? That should tell you I was
Cop Cooper:
Yes, I did look at your record but I think its a tad weird not to ask you a question and say oh, yeah 'I know, it was in your record'
Aren't you a sweetheart
Cop Cooper:
What happened?
You go first, Gia
Cop Cooper:
I don't exactly like to tell this story without 5 rounds of shots first
Alright, I'll go first
We were young. It was university. We were in love, wow!!11! So we got married
Ten months later, she left
Cop Cooper:
Don't be so cynical
I'm not being cynical
Cop Cooper:
Yes, you are
Don't pretend you don't believe in love
I'm not sure I do, anymore
Cop Cooper:
Why else were you on Tinder?
To hook up
To bang-bangity-bang
Cop Cooper:
Bang-bangity-bang, really?
It has a nice rhyme to it
Cop Cooper:
I think you do believe in love
But you don't want to admit it to yourself or to others, so you conceal it with 'funny' jokes
Excuse me
My jokes are funny
Cop Cooper:
They could use some work
If I don't have humour then what do I have?
Thanks a lot Gia, I'm having an identity crisis now
Cop Cooper:
Daniel Gillies, you are a lot more than your bad jokes
You are an actor. You volunteer at the local shelter. You are a good person
I'm to assume you know about the shelter from the background check you did
Cop Cooper:
No, you just tweet about it a lot
That is true
