Speaker 2: Okay, he's exaggerated.
Speaker 3: He If Nico says you were great, then I believe him.

Speaker 4: get my hands dirty.
Speaker 1: Where too? How was the sun set on the beach?
Speaker 5: Sound perfect?

Speaker 4: nothing to be nervous about.
Speaker 1: I heard you singing.
Speaker 2: That's just the thing.
Speaker 10: I'm find singing in front of a person or two.
Speaker 10: But I've never been in front of a crowd, like

Speaker 2: edge of corniness.

Speaker 1: I'm supposed to focus on the view while you're standing
Speaker 1: here in the tower.
Speaker 10: Okay, you already got me into bed and into the shower.
Speaker 2: You can cool it with the compliments.
Speaker 1: I don't think I can tell me what's on your mind.
Speaker 10: It's just it's just wild. A few weeks ago, I
Speaker 10: didn't know anything about this place. Now it feels like
Speaker 10: I've never known anything else.
Speaker 1: And has it lived up sher expectations the island.
Speaker 10: I had no idea what to expect, you know, coming
Speaker 10: down here. It certainly wasn't this, and it certainly wasn't you.
Speaker 10: How am I supposed to just walk away from you
Speaker 10: after all this?
Speaker 4: We both have plenty of practice. I'm sure we'll figure
Speaker 4: it out.
Speaker 2: What if we didn't have to?
Speaker 1: What you mean?
Speaker 2: We could leave together?
Speaker 11: Ah?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 10: The second my concert is over tonight, we could just
Speaker 10: get on a place.
Speaker 2: Why not? There's nothing for me.
Speaker 10: Back in la I mean maybe I could come back
Speaker 10: to New York with you.
Speaker 4: No wherever you go from here, just don't let it
Speaker 4: be New York, please.
Speaker 3: Okay?
Speaker 2: We could find somewhere else new together, you know, somewhere safe.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure that place exists, not as long as
Speaker 1: you would me.
Speaker 5: Trust me.
Speaker 10: If you knew where I was coming from, you wouldn't
Speaker 10: want to go anywhere with me either.
Speaker 5: Who is it.
Speaker 1: My boss?
Speaker 2: You can take it if you need to.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll just give me a second.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's okay. I gotta go and get dressed anyway.

Speaker 13: I'm swinging down at this.
Speaker 8: You know I'll be there in twenty they'll be late.
Speaker 1: You gotta get out of here.
Speaker 10: Why you're afraid the housekeeping staff is gonna gossip about us?
Speaker 1: This isn't a joke.
Speaker 2: What was that call about?
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter?
Speaker 5: It matters to me, Nico.
Speaker 2: Hey, after all this, you still don't trust me enough
Speaker 2: to tell me the truth.
Speaker 1: You'll be safer if you don't know bullshit?
Speaker 5: Is this about your work?
Speaker 2: Did something happen with your boss?
Speaker 5: Is this why you have a gun?
Speaker 1: We don't got time for this.
Speaker 10: You've never told me anything about him.
Speaker 2: If I knew, maybe I could help you.
Speaker 1: Baby, you want to help now, go to your room,
Speaker 1: grab what you can and leave.
Speaker 10: I couldn't leave, even if I'm wanting to, Nigo, I
Speaker 10: have my mom's concerts.
Speaker 1: Forget about the concert?
Speaker 4: What look Singing a few songs for your mom's fans
Speaker 4: is not worth the risk?
Speaker 2: Sounds familiar?
Speaker 1: What are you talking about?
Speaker 5: You're hardly the.
Speaker 2: First person to try and talk me out of performing.
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to keep you safe.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've heard that one before too.
Speaker 9: Where are you going?
Speaker 1: I wish I could tell you. I just need to
Speaker 1: take care of this shit.
Speaker 14: Does this have something to do with Matteo? Is that
Speaker 14: who you're running off to to.
Speaker 5: Take care of?
Speaker 1: I can't get into this.
Speaker 2: What do you think he was the one who broke in?
Speaker 1: There's only one way to find out.
Speaker 4: You really think that's a good idea, Anna, I told
Speaker 4: you everything that I can.
Speaker 1: What you do with that is on you?
Speaker 14: Are you kidding me? You haven't told me anything? Nico away, Nico,
Speaker 14: you weren't kidding. You are good at walking away, aren't you?
Speaker 8: Hey?
Speaker 15: Everything all right over here?
Speaker 5: We're fine?
Speaker 16: Sure?
Speaker 15: About that moon seems kind of tense.
Speaker 1: Keep walking, Gabriel, just don't concern you.
Speaker 15: Oh, make that extremely tense. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I
Speaker 15: didn't mean to interrupt your lover's quarrel.
Speaker 1: I don't I told you keep walking.
Speaker 15: Jesus, what's the matter with you?
Speaker 5: You're hurting him?
Speaker 15: Go ahead, Okay, you made your point.
Speaker 1: You got anything else to say? What was that?
Speaker 5: Nothing?
Speaker 1: That's what I.
Speaker 2: Thought, Jesus, Nico, who are you?
Speaker 1: Is better if you don't know?
Speaker 6: Yeah, walk away, tough guy.
Speaker 2: What the hell are you doing antagonizing him like that?
Speaker 15: What's wrong? Didn't enjoy seeing your boyfriend's true colors?
Speaker 5: Just now?
Speaker 2: She's not my boyfriend.
Speaker 15: Oh yeah, you could have fooled me.
Speaker 12: But hey, maybe you're just as good an actress as
Speaker 12: you are a singer. What you're a more talented performer
Speaker 12: than you are an informant. You know that, that is
Speaker 12: for sure. But hey, at least we got Nico talking
Speaker 12: to his boss on the phone.
Speaker 2: You were listening in on us.
Speaker 12: I assumed you gathered as much. Hey, I heard you
Speaker 12: pressing for information at the end. There, it's a nice effort.
Speaker 12: How did you Surveillance is part of my job.
Speaker 2: You're the one who broke in. You were listening all night.
Speaker 12: Oh, don't be embarrassed, miss Thompson. I was purely professional
Speaker 12: on my part.
Speaker 5: Fuck you.
Speaker 14: Oh, Nico's storming off to settle some blood feud because
Speaker 14: of you.
Speaker 5: He's gonna get himself hurt or why do you care?
Speaker 15: Oh?
Speaker 6: Oh, just just shut up.
Speaker 2: Okay, I know Nico told me that I should get
Speaker 2: off the island. Do you know why?
Speaker 12: Not exactly, But honestly, I would not put too much
Speaker 12: stock in what he says. Okay, I'm not sure he
Speaker 12: has your best interests at heart.
Speaker 2: What's that supposed to mean?
Speaker 12: You can't get into details, might compromise the investigation.
Speaker 10: Fine, can you at least tell me if you think
Speaker 10: it's safe for me to perform.
Speaker 12: Tonight, you're gonna have the FBI's full protection at the concert.
Speaker 15: It doesn't get safer than.
Speaker 2: That, Gabriel, How bad is it? Whatever Nico is mixed
Speaker 2: up in with his.
