Prove It
"Hey, Fawksey?"
"Hey, whatey?"
"Can I ask you a question?"
"You just did."
"You know what I mean."
"Obviously I don't."
(pause)
"What do you think of Agent Monroe?"
"What do you mean?"
"It's not a hard question, Fawkes. What do you think of Monroe?"
"You mean, do I think there's a gentle soul hidden beneath the acid hostility?"
"Sure, ok."
"Not really."
(pause)
"Why?"
"What's with the sudden interest, Hobbes?"
"No reason."
"I don't buy that. What is it?"
"I'm just curious, ok!"
(pause)
"You like her, don't you?"
"No."
"You do. And here I thought you only had eyes for Claire."
"I don't like Monroe!"
(laughing)
(sing-song) "Hobbes and Alex sitting in a tree…"
"Don't you dare."
"…K-I-S-S-I-N-G…"
"Fawkes!"
"First comes love…"
"I am so going to hurt you."
"Then comes marriage…"
"How very elementary school."
"Then comes the baby in the baby carriage."
"I'm going to remember this, Fawkes."
"Oh, come on, Hobbes."
"When you least expect it…"
"It was funny."
"No, it wasn't! Half the Agency probably heard you!"
"You're being ridiculous."
"I'm not the one singing in the parking lot!"
(pause)
"So…you gonna tell her?"
"What? NO!"
(pause)
"Can I?"
"HELL, NO!!!"
"What are you afraid of?"
"Bobby Hobbes fears nothing and no one."
"Prove it."
(grumbling)
"Ok, Bobby Hobbes fears almost no one. Monroe is a special case."
"Yeah, she could kick your fearless ass."
"Watch it, kid."
(pause)
"So, you're not going to tell her."
"Course not. I value my life."
(snickering)
"Good point. I guess I'll have to let you off the hook for now."
"You better. I have a very good memory and a penchant for revenge."
"Is that a threat, Hobbesey?"
"You bet it is."
