Cat and Mouse

Judy: So, whenever you’re ready, shall we begin?

 

Michael: Begin what?

 

Judy: Your session.

 

Michael: My session?

 

Judy: Your session. You understand where you are, don’t you?

 

Michael: In a room with a middle aged woman.

 

Judy: Indeed.

 

Michael: What would I want with a middle aged woman?

 

Judy: What do you want with a middle aged woman?

 

Michael: I wouldn’t know, you’re the middle aged woman, it stands to reason you would know what you want with you.

 

Judy: Have you ever done this before?

 

Michael: No.

 

Judy: Okay. So, take your time, and say whatever comes to mind.

 

Michael: Anything?

 

Judy: Anything.

 

Michael: I’m here to what, exactly? Tell you stuff?

 

Judy: You’re here to discuss yourself, yes, whatever your problem is.

 

Michael: I don’t have a problem.

 

Judy: Then why are you here?

 

Michael: Why are you here?

 

Judy: Because I get paid.

 

Michael: Isn’t your job to help people?

 

Judy: That’s the general premise, yes.

 

Michael: Do you care more about the people or the money?

 

Judy: I care for both.

 

Michael: For what?

 

Judy: The money and the people.

 

Michael: Why didn’t you say that before?

 

Judy: You never asked.

 

Michael: I never asked?

 

Judy: You never asked.

 

Michael: Whatever you say Calamity Shaw.

 

Judy: Did I mishear, or did you just refer to me as “Calamity Shaw?”

 

Michael: You did in fact mishear.

 

Judy: I don’t suppose I did.

 

Michael: Then you didn’t. ‘Cause you’re always right.

 

Judy: Not always, no. But contrary to popular belief, my hearing is pretty good for someone of my age.

 

Michael: Okay. I did.

 

Judy: May I ask why?

 

Michael: No reason.

 

Judy: No reason?

 

Michael: It’s nothing.

 

Judy: Nothing is nothing.
