Karen Goes To Sonny After Seeing Ray
Thank you MBC for contributing the pics and transcripts!
(Sonny's looking out of a window
and starts thinking back to when Karen stripped. In the background you can hear
her tell Sonny some of the things that she'd told him about Ray. The flashback
goes to when they're sitting on the couch and he's holding her. She tells him
about how Ray would walk into her room and all of the things he would do to her.
Then it goes to the present and they show him walking away from the window. In
the next shot we see Karen, crying, running to the apartment door and knocking
on it. Sonny opens the door and she runs into his arms)
S: "Whoa, whoa, whoa." (Hugging her)
K: "He came to Kelly's."
S: "Who? The guy that I threw out the other night?"
K: (nodded) "Ray."
S: "Aww."
K: "I just turned around and he was standing there."
S: "It's okay. It's okay."
K: "Then why do I feel like I can't breathe? I feel like I'm choking."
S: "It's okay. It's okay."
K: "Oh God, I feel so dirty."
S: "No, you're not dirty. Come on."
K: (pulling back) "I'm sorry. I just can't tell anybody yet."
S: (pulls her back into a hug) "Come here you. Let me hold you for a
minute okay? It's all right. Sonny's here. You okay? You feeling better?
Huh?"
K: "Yeah."
S: "Yeah? Better? Okay? All right. Come here." (he pulls back a
little bit) "You can stay here for as long as you want, you know that
don't you?" (He chuckles as she pulls him back into a hug)
K: "What if I go back there and he's there?"
S: (pulling away. He takes her hand and leads her towards the table)
"Take it… take it easy okay? Look it… come on… come here. I'll tell
you what I'll do all right, I'll call your work, tell them you're gonna come
in…" (He reaches for the phone)
K: (runs in front of him and takes the phone before he could, and sits on the
chair) "No, no you can't."
S: "Whoa, whoa… wait… what? Let me help."
K: "Oh my God, I just ran out of my job. I probably don't even have a
job."
S: "So what? It's not the end of the world." (Sits down)
K: (puts down the phone) "Yeah, I need the money to go to
college."
S: "Take it… shh… come on."
K: (stands up and walks to the other side of the room) "You don't
understand I have to have my job. I have to have it because if I don't then…
then my mom, she's… she's gonna be all over my case and then everybody else is
gonna know what's wrong with me."
S: (standing up) "Wait, wait, wait. What are you talking
about?" (walking towards her) "Come on. Look at you. You're…
you're shaking."
K: "I can't help it. This is important to me. I have to-"
S: (interrupting her) "Okay okay."
K: "I can't have people asking me any questions."
S: "Okay… okay. Here. Here." (Pops
open a bottle of pills) "You're gonna have to calm down. Gimme… come
here." (Taking her hand.)
K: (looking at the pills) "What is that?" (He pours a few
into her hand) "What is this?"
S: "It's a tranquilizer." (walks over to the bar) "Very
mild." (looking at the stuff on the bar) "I… I uh… I take
them myself sometimes, you know." (pours her some water) "To
calm myself down." (Turns around and hands the glass to her)
"I'm uh… glad you came." (He watches as she takes the pill.)
K: "So am I."
S: "Why is that?"
K: "I don't know. You just… you make me feel better."
S: "And I always will, you remember that. You know it's just… you ever
uh… your smile it… it lights up the sky you know." (She smiles. He
takes the glass from her and holds her hands for a few seconds, stepping closer.
He then steps back and lets out a breath, walking towards the bar again)
"I gotta… I gotta…"
K: (walking behind him) "Sonny."
S: (turns around) "Yeah?"
K: "Thank you for being here and everything."
S: "Take it for granted baby." (walks over to a chair and picks up
his jacket. She follows closely behind.) "I gotta… I gotta go
downstairs to um…" (he turns around and she's RIGHTTHERE. He looks at
her and chuckles a little bit) "To um let…" (he stares at her
as she looks expectantly) "Make yourself comfortable. Just call me if
you need anything."
K: "Are you sure?"
S: "Yeah, sure. I'm positive. Yeah. Okay. Come over here, let me show you.
Have a seat over here." (sits her down) "We've got TV, VCR, we
got sodas in the kitchen. Whatever you need okay?" (He looks down at her
and smiles.) "You feeling a little better?"
K: "Yeah, I think so."
S: (He sits himself on the arm of the couch) "Nobody is gonna hurt
you Carrie." (she smiles and nods) "Let's wipe off that last
little tear." (wipes it away) "Whoa, there we go. Nobody's
gonna touch you unless you want them to. Okay?" (she nods)
"Okay? All right. Bye." (He stands up
and walks towards the door. He pulls it open and stares at her for a few moments
before smiling and shaking his head. He walks out of the door.)
