Paul breaks out into full on laughter, curling into a ball in pain from how much he's laughing. "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! JEALOUS?! OF YOU?!" Paul scoots closer, his smug smile receding and replaced by a menacing look. "I gave you a chance to climb up from the ground, you psycopathic lunatic. I built this whole damn show, and you just rode on my success. Acting tips from Cornelius Parrysmith? What a riot! The only person more insane than Cornelius I've ever met is YOU. You were a drugged up, smoke-addicted dumpster fire who couldn't act for shit. Why do you think your wife left you, huh? Because she couldn't stand to be around you. You're disgusting, you're worthless."
Ellie slams her knife into the desk in front of her, leaning in closer. "I AM NOT WORTHLESS! I AM BELOVED, I AM FABULOUS, I AM THE GREATEST CHARACTER IN ALL OF MEDIA HISTORY!"
Paul snorts. "No, you're just delusional. Ellie's ratings were tanking long before you were fired. Kids got tired of the gimmick. They don't want wholesome, happy bullshit. They don't want morals. They want to be entertained. Comedy's gotten darker. Kids have matured. The Civil War really changed this great nation, and for the better I say! The Union's ready to handle the truth, that this Multiverse is a dangerous place and they need to be ready to fight for their right to live here. Vance has the right idea. Those Rebels are out risking their lives to make things better for all of us, but until that happens we can't keep up with the goo-goo ga-ga fluff."
Ellie shakes her head repeatedly. "No no no, you're lying! You're a lying liar who lies! Children will always love me! I was fired because of a grand scheme orchestrated by Vance Wentworth! Don't lie to me!"
"I don't need to lie to you. You just need to stop pretending you're the main character in everyone else's life. Yeah, Vance was the one who ordered you to be fired. Because what kind of example were you setting for his nephew? After what you did to his sister? You wretch, he ought to have executed you for treating her that way. Instead, he just gave you the boot. It's well known you're a Fed-sympathizer anyways, and people like that aren't all too popular in these parts. Just consider yourself lucky you don't have lead lodged between your last remaining three brain-cells and get lost. Go find the dumpster you crawled out of and lock yourself in, for the benefit of everyone."
Ellie lunges for Paul, grabbing him by the throat and pulling him onto the ground. She begins maniacally beating him with her fists, but the man makes not even so much as a whimper as he's assaulted. It seems he's accepted his own fate, and doesn't even care. The question is, what benefit will this bring?
保罗大笑起来,蜷缩成一个球,因为他快笑死了。" 哈 哈 哈 哈 哈 哈 哈 哈 哈 哈 哈 哈 ! 嫉 妒 ?! 你 ?!"保罗靠得更近了,他得意的笑容消失,取而代之的是威胁性的表情。"我给了你一个从地上爬起来的机会,你这个精神病疯子。我制作了这整个该死的节目,而你只是站在我成功的肩膀上。科尼利厄斯·帕里史密斯的表演技巧?真是胡闹!我见过的唯一比科尼利厄斯还更疯狂的人就是 你 。你只不过是一个烟毒成瘾的着火垃圾筒,演不了任何狗屎。你觉得你老婆为什么要离开你,嗯?因为她实在无法忍受在你身边。你太恶心了,你毫无价值。"
埃莉用刀猛击她面前的桌子,靠得更近了。" 我 不 是 一 文 不 值 ! 我 被 爱 着 , 我 很 棒 , 我 是 传 媒 史 上 最 伟 大 的 角 色 !"
保罗哼了一声。"不,你只是在妄想。在你被解雇之前很久,埃莉的收视率就已经下降了。孩子们已经厌倦了这种噱头。他们不想要健全、快乐的狗屁废话。他们不想要道德,他们想要一点高级的乐子。滑稽演出对他们已经变得黯淡起来,因为孩子们成熟了。内战真的改变了这个伟大的政体,我是说向着更好的方向!同盟已经准备好接受这个事实,即这个多元宇宙是一个十分危险的地方,我们需要随时准备好,为活下去的权利而战。万斯的想法是正确的。那些革命军冒着生命危险要让我们所有人的生活变得更好,但在那达成之前,我们没法再维持你的咕咕嘎嘎的过家家玩意。"
埃莉反复摇头。"不不不,你在撒谎!你是一个撒谎的骗子!孩子们永远都会爱我!我被解雇是因为万斯·温特沃斯精心策划的一项大阴谋!不要骗我!"
"我不需要骗你,你只需要停止假装自己是他人生活中的主角。没错,是万斯下的令解雇你。你为他的侄子树立了什么样的榜样?你又对他妹妹做了什么?你这个卑鄙无耻之徒,他没有因为你那样对待她而处死你。反而,只是踹了你一脚。众所周知,反正你是联邦的支持者,像你这样的奇葩在附近已经很少见了。你就好好庆幸吧,我没把你最后仅存的三个脑细胞里灌上铅,快滚。滚回你爬出来的垃圾箱,把自己锁在里面,这对大家都好。"
埃莉失去理智地冲向保罗,抓住他的喉咙,把他拖到地上。她开始疯狂地用拳头殴打他,但男人被殴打时连呜咽声都没有发出。他似乎已经接受了自己的命运,什么都不在乎了。现在问题是,继续殴打他能带来什么好处?
