Lightning could strike

PARRISH.- 

Do you love Drew? 

SUSAN.-

...There's a start for a meeting. 

PARRISH.-

I know it's none of my business -- 

SUSAN.-

No, it's none of your business.

PARRISH.-

Do you love Drew? 

SUSAN.-

You mean like you loved Mom?

PARRISH.-

Forget about me and Mom --
are you going to marry him? 

SUSAN.-
Probably. 

PARRISH.-

(smiles) 

Don't get carried away. 

SUSAN.-

Uh oh -- 

PARRISH.-

Susan, you're a hell of a woman. You've
got a great career, you're beautiful 

SUSAN.-

And I'm your daughter and no man
 will ever be good enough for me. 

PARRISH.-

Well, I wasn't going to say that -- 

SUSAN.-

What were you going to say? 

PARRISH.-

Listen, I'm crazy about the guy -- He's
smart, he's aggressive, he could carry
Parrish Communication and me aloong with it. 

SUSAN.-

So what's wrong with that? 

PARRISH.-

That's for me. I'm talking about you.
 It's not so much what you say
 about Drew, it's what you don't say. 

SUSAN.-

You're not listening -- 

PARRISH.-

Oh yes, I am. Not an ounce of
 excitement, not a whisper of a
 thrill, this relationship has all the
passion of a pair of titmice. 

SUSAN.-

Don't get dirty, Dad -- 

PARRISH.-

Well, it worries me. I want you to get swept
away. I want you to levitate. I want you to
sing with rapture and dance like a dervish. 

SUSAN.-

 That's all? 

PARRISH.-

Be deliriously happy. Or at
least leave yourself open to be. 

SUSAN.-

'Be deliriously happy'. I'm going
 to do my upmost -- He smiles. 

PARRISH.-

I know it's a cornball thing but love
is passion, obsession, someone you
can't live without. If you don't start
with that, what are you going to end
up with? I say fall head over heels. Find
someone you can love like crazy and
who'll love you the same way back.
 And how do you find him? Forget your
head and listen to your heart. I'm not hearing
any heart. (a moment) Run the risk, if you
get hurt, you'll come back. Because, the truth
 is there is no sense living your life without this.
 To make the journey and not fall deeply in
love -- well, you haven't lived a life at all.
 You have to try. Because if you haven't
tried, you haven't lived. 

SUSAN.-

 Bravo. 

PARRISH.-

Aw, you're tough. 

SUSAN.-

I'm sorry. But give it to me again. The short version. 

PARRISH.-

Stay open. Who knows? Lightning could strike.
