爱在黎明破晓前语录

Location notes: Kleines Café is located in Franziskanerplatz (along Weihburggasse), in the 1st District, just southeast of Stephansplatz. Metro: U1 or U3, Stephansplatz stop.

(They walk around a vehicle barricade then proceed down a cobblestone walkway lined with trees and vines.)

(Sitting at a cafe. A pair of friars walk by, apparently in prayer.)

Jesse: Hey...check these guys out. “Hey Hans, I have a confession to make. I’m not wearing any underwear underneath this thing.”“Oh really?” “Does that frighten you?” (Pauses, then turns to face Céline.) Can I tell you a secret?

Céline: Yeah.

Jesse: Come here. (Leans in toward her ear.)

Céline: What? (Leans in a bit closer.)

Jesse: Come here. (Leans all the way toward her, and kisses her on the lips.)

(They pause, looking in the direction where they hear some laughter, seeing a gypsy as she finishes

reading somebody’s palm.)

Céline: Look at this palm-reader. She’s interesting-looking, no?

Jesse: Yeah.

Céline: Uh-oh, uh-oh.

Jesse: What, what?

Céline: I just made eye contact.

Jesse: She’s not coming over here.

Céline: Yes, she is.

Jesse: Oh, sh-it. Oh, no.

Céline: Oh my God. You want your palm read?

Jesse: No, no.

Céline: No? Are you sure?

Jesse: I’m sure.

Céline: Okay.

Jesse: Hello. (Mocking.)

Céline: Here she is.

Gypsy: Ich moechte deine hand lesen. (Would you like your palm read?)

Céline: (Not understan ding.) Uh, fran?ais, English?

Gypsy: (Takes Céline’s hand, and touches it. )

Want your palm read?

Céline: (Hesitantly.) Yeah. How much is it.

Gypsy: For you, fifties. Okay?

Céline: Okay.

Gypsy: (Takes Celine’s palm, gazing and running her fingers over it.) Oh, so, you have been on a journey, and you are stranger to this place. You, are on an adventure, you seek. An adventure in your mind. You are interested in the power of the woman, in a woman’s deep strength, and creativity? You are becoming this woman. You need to resign yourself to the awkwardneof life. Only if you find peace within yourself, will you find true connection with others. (Indicates, with her head, Jesse.) That is a stranger to you?

Céline: I gueso.

Gypsy: (Takes Jesse’s hand, and looks at it only briefly.) Oh, you will be alright. He’s learning. Okay. (Claps hands.) Money. (Offers hand, awaiting payment.)

(Céline pays her, and gypsy begins to walk away. With the money in her hands, gypsy turns back to Jesse and Céline, raising her arms.)
