 DAVID
So, basically you feel, to choose another quote, 'society must be cleansed of elements which represent its own death.'

The Governor makes an animated thinking face.

GOVERNOR HARDIN
Well, yes. I would have to agree.
(chuckles again)
Did I say that, too?

DAVID
No, ma'am. That was Hitler.

You work hard not to be seen as a 
                       sex object. Before long, you're not 
                         seen at all.

                                     DAVID
                         I see you.

He loves his son

His last meal was pancakes with chocolate and whipped cream etc.
That is the same meal as his son wanted for breakfast

                         ...Because of the Berlin thing, 
                     Constance knew the police would go 
                         straight to Gale. In a way, he's 
                         perfect. A high profile alcoholic 
                         whose life was shit anyway. But..

David is philosoffical

Fantasies must be unrealistic. The 
                         minute you get something, you don't, 
                         you can't, want it anymore. To exist, 
                         desire needs absent objects. So desire 
                         supports itself with crazy 
                         fantasies...

First, this isn't a story. It's an
interview. We come, I listen, you
watch, we go home. Second, there is
no 'us' in the assignment.
