(KIM wakens. CHRIS hands her the money he had left.)



CHRIS

this money's yours

please take it all

hey, you want more?



KIM

no, no, I don't want anything



CHRIS

hey, what's wrong with you?



KIM

I've not done this before



CHRIS

that can't be true!



KIM

why would I lie?



CHRIS

all the girls lie!

they just want to get out of here

maybe you're not like that

but I don't know who you are



KIM

do you want one more tale of a Vietnam girl?

want to know I was bound to a man I don't love?

do you want to be told how my village was burned?

want to hear how my family was blasted away?

how I ran from the rice field and saw them in flames?

how my parents were bodies whose faces were gone?



I have had my fill of pain

I will not look back again

I would rather die





CHRIS

can I see you tonight?



KIM

well, I'll be at the club

selling "beaucoup amour"



CHRIS

no, you won't



how would you like...



KIM

how would I like...?



CHRIS

how would you like

living with me?

it feels good like this

so that's how we should be



so would you like?



KIM

yes, I would like!



CHRIS

okay, it's set

no more to say

screw the Engineer

you're the one good thing

that I've found out here
