Nick Dunne: I hope you don't mind me coming by, I got your address from this letter you wrote to my wife.
Desi Collings: Amy and I believe in the lost art of letter writing.
Nick Dunne: I always wondered why you kept in touch, after everything. You were together for two years in boarding school, right?
Desi

Collings: She was my first serious girlfriend.
Nick Dunne: Why did you break up?
Desi Collings: That's a strange question.
Nick Dunne: Did you treat her bad? Did you cheat on her?
Desi Collings: That's a RUDE question.
Nick Dunne: Let me tell you what Amy told me. She

dumped you, you completely unravelled. You stalked her, you threatened her, you attempted suicide in her bed and were institutionalised.
Desi Collings: Your wife is missing, and you came all this way to tell me this?
Nick Dunne: Well I thought there might be another side to this story.

Nick Dunne: You implied that I had carnal relations with my sister.
Ellen Abbott: I didn't use

the "I" word. I said you two were extremely close.

Ellen Abbott: Icebreaker.
Ellen Abbott: [shows him a robot cat toy] To go with your robot dog.
Nick Dunne: I'll go find Amy.

Amy Dunne: [V.O] What scared me wasn't that he'd pushed me. What scared me was how much he wanted to hurt me more. What scared me was that I'd finally realized... I am frightened of my own husband.
