Excerpt of dialogue from a film by Thomas De Brabanter:
JIM
So I'm on this voyage right. But then I'm not, because...
HER
(Interrupts) Well that's neither here nor there.
(Pauze)
So this voyage... where will it take you?
JIM
I never get there.
HER
Why? What happens?
JIM
I lose myself. You see, I should never have gone.
HER
Do you die?
