[The scene begins in the middle of
CHRISTINE: Say you'll share with me one love, one lifetime… Say the word and I will follow you…
[RAOUL holds up a hand to stop her.]
RAOUL: Ya know… Now that I think about it, you're just asking a little too much of me. So, I think I'll find somebody else.
CHRISTINE: *hurt and confused* What? But, Raoul…
RAOUL: No, I really think it's over, babe. Been fun, but, well… I'm just not ready for commitment.
CHRISTINE: *angrily* Fine! Go! I don't need you! I still have Erik!
[ERIK steps out of the shadows.]
ERIK: Actually, he's making sense. You're just too… needy. I think it would be better for both of us if I became obsessed with a different beautiful opera singer.
[ERIK tries to think of something comforting to say.]
ERIK: It's not you, it's me.
[CHRISTINE runs off crying. ERIK and RAOUL look at each other.]
RAOUL: Wanna go get a beer?
ERIK: Sure.
