In case I don't see ya', good afternoon, good evening and goodnight.
TRUMAN
Who are you?
CHRISTOF
I am the creator… of a television show that gives hope and joy and inspiration to millions.
TRUMAN
And who am I?
CHRISTOF
You're the star.
TRUMAN
Was nothing real?
CHRISTOF
YOU were real. That's what made you so good to watch. Listen to me, Truman. There's no more truth out there than there is in the world I created for you. Same lies. The same deceit. But in my world, you have nothing to fear. I know you better than you know yourself.
TRUMAN
You never had a camera in my head!
CHRISTOF
You're afraid. That's why you can't leave. It's okay, Truman. I understand. I have been watching you your whole life. I was watching when you were born. I was watching when you took your first step. I watched you on your first day of school. heh heh. The episode when you lost your first tooth. heh heh heh. You can't leave, Truman. You belong here… With me. Talk to me. Say something. 'ell, say something, goddamnit! You're on television! You're live to the whole world!
TRUMAN
In case I don't see ya', good afternoon, good evening and goodnight. Hahaha! Yeah!
