-
Trevor Goodchild: [message to Aeon, with shocks] Aeon. I'm sorry for the pain. It's not safe to talk in the open. Nothing's as it seems... You had your chance, why did you hesitate?... You know where to find me.
-
Æon Flux: [in Trevor's quarters, coming from the shadows] Why am I here?
Trevor Goodchild: [turns to face her] I needed to see you again.
Æon Flux: [begins circling the room] You killed my sister!
Trevor Goodchild: I didn't know anything about it... I'm sorry.
Æon Flux: And the excuses you?
Trevor Goodchild: No. But this is a war. People on all sides die.
Æon Flux: She shouldn't have. She had nothing to do with this.
Trevor Goodchild: Everyone's involved in this.
Æon Flux: [furious] She wasn't.
[looks down at her gun]
Æon Flux: I don't need that to kill you.
Trevor Goodchild: [smiles] But it would be easier, wouldn't it?... Everything changed when I saw you... I know you and you know me.
Æon Flux: [grabs up her weapon, starts walking backwards] Why do I know you? Why?
Trevor Goodchild: [lowers her arm with his hands, advancing slowly] Why did you come back? What do you want from me?
Æon Flux: [grabs his jacket, forcing him to the wall] What do I want? I want my sister back! I want to remember what it feels like to be a person.
[begins kisses Trevor]
Trevor Goodchild: [breathless] Aeon.
Æon Flux: [shoves him away] Why do I feel this way around you?
[begins kissing him again]
