CARL E.: I should've snapped that fat dog's neck.
Or cut her throat.
Too bad all you left me
to play with was pupusa lady.
- Why are you doing this to me?
- Why?
Because I foolishly underestimated you.
Crashing the car?
Brava, Clara.
Unlike the others, you grew
a pair under extreme duress,
and that was not predicted
in my calculations.
- "Others"?
What do you mean, others?
- You missed a spot.
Of blood.
It's on your face.
You know, you really
should use makeup remover.
It's much better for your skin.
- [EXHALES]
How do you know what I
what I look like?
What music I'm listening to?
Every single thing
that I've done tonight
- Here's looking at you, Clare.
Smile.
You're on Candid Camera.
