Text

START: NED: You look very pretty.

NED: Where’s your cat?
EMMA: Under my bed. She’s afraid of you.
NED: Do you think being Jewish always makes you hungry?

EMMA: Good. You take care of the city--I’ll take care of Felix.
NED: I’m afraid to be with him; I’m afraid to be without him; I’m afraid the cure won’t come in time; I’m afraid of my anger; I’m a terrible leader and a useless lover…
