  Richard Farley : Don't you understand? Why do you want to find out how far I will go? Is it because you want to be right and win? Is it because you want totell everybody that you won?

  Laura Black : No, it's not about winning, I just want to be left alone.

  [Farley grabs Laura & gets in her face]

  Richard Farley : [to Laura]  This could escalate, Laura. I might scare us both with what I'm capable of doing.

  [Farley leaves Laura crying in the bathroom]
