Dirty Sexy Money 2.01 - “The Birthday Present”
(via howlingfantods)

KAREN: You’re my exit ramp, you know.
NICK: No, I am not an exit ramp, Karen. I’m just your old boyfriend that you run to when you start to have feelings for anyone else.
KAREN: Yeah, that’s kinda what I mean by “exit ramp”, Nick.

(Karen is waiting for Nick as he walks into his office.)
KAREN: You’re kinda late, Nick.
NICK: Well, gee, I’m really sorry, Karen. I just got all caught up in trying to find someone to defend your mother in a murder trial. (Karen puts her hands on her hips, presenting herself for his inspection.) Let me guess - you’re here because you want me to pick you to take over the company.
KAREN: Oh, let me guess - you weren’t even going to consider me, were you?
NICK: Come on, Karen. I am well aware of all your virtues, your business experience, your work with the family foundation. I promise you, I’m going to take all those things into consideration as I make a decision, okay? Done. (Nick turns his attention back to his work. Karen stares at him for a moment, arms crossed.)
KAREN: You’re not going to pick me. (Nick rolls his eyes, and Karen laughs humourlessly.)
NICK: Come on, Karen. You know, I don’t want to pick anybody. I got handed this live grenade-
KAREN: You’re not going to pick me, it’s that simple! (Nick throws up his hands and, giving up on the conversation, opens his briefcase. Karen reaches across the desk and slams it shut. She leans on it, getting in his face.) If I had known when we were ten years old that letting you see me with my shirt off was going to cost me the company, I never would have done it. But I guess I didn’t know you then. (She stands up.) And I don’t know you now, Nick. (She walks out, leaving Nick looking confused.)
NICK: Karen! (The door slams.)

COUNSELLOR: Do you have any particular physical attributes in mind, Ms Darling?
KAREN: Yes. I want someone who looks good in the French designers, but who can pull off the Italians. Someone versatile. (The counsellor just stares at her like she’s crazy.)
NICK: (to Karen) I think you’re gonna need to be a little more specific. (Karen looks blank.) Height, weight, that kind of thing.
KAREN: Oh, God! Okay. (She turns back to the counsellor.) Um…6’2”ish, between 170 and 175, dirty blonde leaning towards sandy auburn, and ixnay on the ackbay airhay, because I keep a clean house. (The counsellor is staring at Nick, clearly amused.)
NICK: What?
COUNSELLOR: I’m sorry, but I couldn’t help noticing you fit her description perfectly. (Karen looks Nick up and down, as if seeing him for the first time. There is genuine surprise and wonder in her voice when she speaks.)
KAREN: He does, doesn’t he? (Brian makes a strangled sound from the back of the room. Nick turns to look at him.)
BRIAN: Oh, I’m sorry, I just threw up in my mouth a little.

NICK: Karen.
KAREN: What are you doing here?
NICK: Don’t marry Simon. It’s a mistake.
KAREN: Look, you did your job, smart guy. You saved the company.
NICK: I don’t care about the company! At least, it’s not my first concern.
KAREN: Oh, then what is?
NICK: You. And me.
KAREN: Did something happen with Lisa?
NICK: I don’t know. Yes.
KAREN: Nick, don’t do this to me.
NICK: Karen.
KAREN: Don’t do this to me. I moved on. I made…I made plans.
NICK: Your plans, if they include marrying a guy who wants you just so he can take over your family’s company, are insane.
KAREN: I’m sorry, you can’t just show up here whenever you want and screw with my head, Nick!
NICK: I know. I’m sorry. I’m sorry, okay? I just… I don’t want to see you make a huge mistake.
KAREN: Then step up!
NICK: What do you mean?
KAREN: Don’t ask me to give up everything for nothing. Don’t ask me to derail my life if you’re not gonna derail yours. Because I can’t leave Simon for an abstraction, Nick. I can only… I can only leave him for you. What’s it gonna be?

KAREN: All right, here’s what you need to do. Go to the Bowery branch of Fortunato Brothers and ask for Paolo Vova.
NICK: Paolo Vova. And he’s just going to give me a million dollars. He’s never met me!
KAREN: Well, Nick, if I go in and ask him for money to pay off a blackmailer for a sex tape, he’s just gonna go and tell Daddy. (She rolls her eyes.) Like he did last time.
