SCENE: VAL (age indeterminant) a mysterious and strangely alluring woman who claims to have once been known as Aphrodite and Venus (among other names) has discovered DARAN's attempt to re-ignite his ex-girlfriend Mitzi's passion for him. She confronts Daran on the issue.
VAL
When I said I'd help you, that was not what I had in mind.
DARAN
Yeah? Well, helping you correct your foul ups was not the way I wanted to spend my day, either!
VAL
(Beat)
Touche.
DARAN
So. It's true, then? That's what this has been all about, hasn't it? You screwed things up for Daphne and now Mitzi's destined to suffer because of it?
VAL
(Sarcastic)
Well done, Inspector Clouseau. You've found me out. You've discovered my "terrible secret." The question now, though, is: what do you intend to do about it?
DARAN
What do you think I'm going to do? I'm going to fix it. The way I should have... a year and a half ago.
