Transcript

Maggie: Like this?

Jonas: (off-camera) No, you can actually pull it back a little bit. (Camera zooms out) There you go.

Maggie: Now what?

Jonas: Now you talk.

Maggie: About what?

Jonas: Whatever you want. It's a video blog. Just...go.

Maggie: But I've never done this before.

Jonas: What are you talking about? You've done this plenty of times.

Maggie: Not as myself.

Jonas: Okay. Well just...go with the very first thing that pops into your mind. The very first thing you're feeling.

Maggie: Okay. I'm worried about LifesBlood Labs.

Jonas: Okay. no, no, no, no, no. Make it more...I guess...personal.

Maggie: Life and death is pretty personal.

Jonas: Yeah, it is. But I mean, like, more everyday stuff. Like, what was the first thing you thought about when you woke up this morning? Things like that.

Maggie: I thought about Reed and Estelle's date.

Jonas: Good. Okay, what about it?

Maggie: I wondered if they had sex and if Sarah was going to become more jealous.

Jonas: (laughing) That was...direct. It was better.

Maggie: Reed and Sarah are...they're funny.

Jonas: Okay, hold on. I want you to talk to the camera. Not to me. Pretend like no one else is around.

Maggie: It's obvious that they care about each other but I don't know why they try to hide it so much. It's a good thing and I dont think they should try to fight it. It's kind of like they take it for granted.

(Maggie hesitates.)

Jonas: What? What?

Maggie: It makes me kind of mad. Because I would like to have a relationship but I know it's pretty impossible given who I am and the kind of life I've been forced into. You know, it's just not reasonable and...uh...a reasonable situation hasn't presented itself to me. Like, someone like Jonas, he's a really great guy.

Jonas: Uh...I'm right here. Don't forget.

Maggie: (looks at Jonas) But you said to pretend like nobody else was in the room.

Jonas: Yeah. You know what? That was, um, a really good start for today.

Maggie: This wasn't so bad. I actually kind of like being honest.

(Maggie turns off the camera.)
