Bright Falls

Jake Fischer:
Well, I'm from the city, you know, and... it's gonna sound kind of stupid but I... left the door open last night and... some kind of wild animal must've... came in here.

Deputy Mulligan:
No squirrel animal did this... These are the markings of what I'd say is a... fourteen point stag. Yeahp. See the pattern? Cut and buck. Horned rimmed entry points. You had a trophy deer here, you know that? Would've fetched old Sam a hell of a prize. Too bad he flew the coup. Probably on some bender. He's got a bad habit.

Ralph:
I'm going to have to send out for this.

Jake Fischer:
How long?

Ralph:
Three... four... six days.

Jake Fischer:
Six day? Nothing overnight?

Ralph:
Well if I can get Mary Beth to get Joe to make his rounds up there at fern ridge 'fore Tuesday. Now that's pending on the weather at that elevation, of course.

Jake Fischer:
Some woman just bit a cop in the parking lot.

Rose Darkens:
What?... You don't look so good Jake.

Deputy Mulligan:
Woman's like a feral animal! Give me a towel. Get something wet!

Jake Fischer:
Can I talk to you for a minute, off the record?

Dr. Emil Hartman:
Of course.

Jake Fischer:
Since I got here, I've been... blacking out and waking up in really strange places.

Dr. Emil Hartman:
What kinds of places?

Jake Fischer:
The woods, the lake. I'm worried that when I leave it's not going to stop.

Dr. Emil Hartman:
Anything... else?

Jake Fischer:
Yeah. I think I killed... a deer... with my car.

Dr. Emil Hartman:
...It happens.

Hal:
Have you been home?

Jake Fischer:
Come on, Hal.

Hal:
She didn't know you where going to Bright Falls.

Jake Fischer:
Well I guess she does now.

Rose Darkens:
So, what are you - a detective or a peeping tom?

Jake Fischer:
Uh, both. A reporter.

Rose Darkens:
Kinky.

Busboy:
Haspy Burrday to you, Haspy Burrday to ju, Haspy Burrday, Haspy Burrday, Haspy Burrday, Haspy Burrday, Haspy Burrday to you.

Sam Smith:
Toilet backs up, jiggle the handle. Card machine's down, so it'll have to be cash. Just pay up on time.

Jake Fischer:
You bet.

Jake Fischer:
Is it always this quiet out here? What'd you do, get rid of all the critters in the woods?

Sam Smith:
It's the quiet ones you need to worry about.

Jake Fischer:
You know, I never figured out why you moved here.

Ellen Adams:
No, I guess not.

Dr. Emil Hartman:
What have you got there?

Jake Fischer:
It's my camera. I use it to record interviews, if that's OK.

Dr. Emil Hartman:
You're a writer, aren't you?

Jake Fischer:
Yeah.

Dr. Emil Hartman:
So... write.

Jake Fischer:
So maybe you could start by telling me what inspired your book, 'The Creator's Dilemma.'

Dr. Emil Hartman:
For years, I dealt with patients who seemed lost - trapped in a reality of their own devising. Can you imagine?... Neither could I. Until I began to think of their dilemma as the universal one.
