Quotes 

• [last lines] 

  Kris Morrow : [on phone, voice shaking]  I'd like to report an accident. I just killed someone. I'm at 7016 North 69th Avenue. My name is Kristine Morrow. No, M-O-R-R-O-W.

• Kris Morrow : Why don't you sit down? We'll get started

  Charlie Lapidus : I've never done anything like this.

  Kris Morrow : You don't have to be nervous.

  Charlie Lapidus : I'm not nervous.

  Kris Morrow : But what are you feeling, Mr. Lapidus?

  Charlie Lapidus : Can you call me Charlie? I hate the last name.

  Kris Morrow : It means rock, you know.

  Charlie Lapidus : [sarcastically]  What do I do, translate it every time I introduce myself?

  [Kris laughs] 

  Charlie Lapidus : Sounds like fetus to me.

  Kris Morrow : Sounds like libido to me.

  Charlie Lapidus : You coming on to me, doc?

• [Kris goes in the church and finds who she though was Lila praying at the statue] 

  Kris Morrow : Lila?

  [She turns scaring Kris, it was Jane] 

  Jane Beckum : [suspiciously]  Looking for somebody?

  Kris Morrow : Lieutenant...

  Jane Beckum : Why are you protecting her?

  Kris Morrow : I'm not! I, I...

  Jane Beckum : Is it the money?

  Kris Morrow : No, no, I...

  Jane Beckum : [grabs her]  I knew you were a phony the first time I met you. And you know? I'm going to be on your neck, every second of every day until I get you!

  [Jane leaves] 

• Kris Morrow : [after being kissed hard from Lila making Kris recognize who it really is]  YOU!

  Charlie Lapidus : [revealing to be Charlie himself]  You knew all along in your heart, Kris.

  Kris Morrow : What about Lila?

  Charlie Lapidus : You never met Lila.

  Kris Morrow : [horrified]  What!

  Charlie Lapidus : My wife--Lila. She thought all our problems were my fault. She was going to leave me if I didn't get any help. But all our problems were HER fault. So, when I came to you for therapy, I came as Lila. Get it? But you couldn't help her--poor girl.

  Kris Morrow : You killed Lila?

  Charlie Lapidus : Well, that's one way to look at it. I really did love her, but you made me realize that she was incapable of returning that love. So, I didn't kill her; WE killed her. We went as far as we could with that relationship. I mean, when you love somebody that completely--you have to get something back.

  Kris Morrow : [nervously]  I understand.

  Charlie Lapidus : Do you?

  Kris Morrow : Yeah.

  Charlie Lapidus : Do you really understand? Do you really? To feel such love for somebody, that you would do anything--anything. It's like your heart is beating in their chest. It's like your breath is coming from their lungs. When you look at them, you're looking at yourself, and then they tell you that you're sick. Then you feel ashamed, like you're going out of your mind, like you're burning in hell. I am not sick! I AM NOT SICK!

• Charlie Lapidus : [grabs Kris, who tries to escape from him]  I thought you wanted to help me!

  Kris Morrow : [threatened]  I do!

  Charlie Lapidus : Then come away with me! You know where we're going? If you close your eyes, you can hear it. It's the sound of love and commitment. Unconditional love and commitment. You know what we're going to do? We're going to blow away in the red wind!
