Please. You must understand. I've wanted... I've thought about you...and, after that night, I couldn't stop. Like you said, you said that night when we were… Which was incredible, by the way. Night of my life, really… But then you said how it can be so lonely... Which I never thought of before, so thanks a lot for that because after that I started crying in the middle of missions, totally unprovoked, until it really started screwing up my work. Fact is, everywhere I went on mission I just wanted to run into you. And I started to dream – we just run away together, screw the mission, you know – to Kathmandu – It got so… Well, I had to get out. See, I'd worked up a lot of money over the years, bit off the top, you know--and I quit. But then, I was still lonely, and… and the problem, turns out, wasn’t the work at all, it was me. More specifically, me without you. See? So, I heard you went freelance from a buddy of mine at The Company. And I just had to see you. Only, you’re not the kind of girl one just looks up. So I made this plan... I thought, just maybe, you’re freelance now, you could get out, I’m defector, we’re both free. Don’t you see? Oh, and I borrowed this tux and I hadn't even thought about James Bond I swear.
