Joe Gillis:
[spotting Max in the shadows]
What is it, Max? Wanna wash the car? Or you're doing a little spying in your off-hours? Max Von Mayerling:
You must be very careful as you cross the patio. Madame may be watching. Joe Gillis:
How about going up the kitchen stairs and undressing in the dark? Will that do it? Max Von Mayerling:
I'm not inquiring where Mr. Gillis goes every night. Joe Gillis:
Why don't you? I'm writing a script, and I'm going to finish it. No matter what. Max Von Mayerling:
It's just that I'm greatly worried about Madame. Joe Gillis:
Sure you are. And we're not helping her any. Feeding her lies and more lies. Getting herself ready for a picture. What happens when she finds out? Max Von Mayerling:
She never will. That is my job, and it has been for a long time. You must understand: I discovered her when she was 16. I made her a star and I cannot let her be destroyed
