Minimal death and destruction, no known curses carried back to the Barge, and I didn't get baked into any witches' pies or swallowed by wolves. [Or whatever it is that happens to sassy woodlands critters n fairy tales.] All in all, I'd say that was a good port.

No. [DON'T MAKE HIM PICK THE LOCK. He's Arthur. He will.] What are you gonna do, Perry? Sulk on the Barge forever?

[Perry yanks the door open, just a crack.] Give me one good reason I should listen to anything you have to say, asshole.

[How tempted was Arthur to kick that door back into Perry? Very. But he refrained, since it wouldn't really be all that conducive towards ironing things out. If his inmate moved to slam the door shut, though, Arthur would strike.]

Because I'm your ticket out of here.

And a liar, a criminal-- [Perry's voice is so full of hate right now.] --and you fuck with people's heads for a goddamn living.

You're not exactly a model citizen yourself. [His voice is firm, trying to keep professional.] The dream sharing? That doesn't just fuck with people. It can help, too.

The difference is, Arthur, I don't pretend I'm something I'm not. [Perry's voice gets a little louder, forgetting that they're having this conversation in the corridor. He's got a lot of rage.] But oh, no, it can help, stealing people's memories and putting thoughts into their heads is helping them. Well that just makes everything fucking fine, doesn't it?

[Arthur barely suppresses rolling his eyes, glancing back quickly, subtly, to make sure nobody overheard that part.] I don't put thoughts into people's heads. I'm not the person from that flood. [Come on, Perry, be reasonable. The sedative combos other Arthur used don't even exist yet. Pffth.]

I meant it can be used therapeutically. "Can" being the operative word here, because I'm not gonna push it.

Yeah, you're not him. Just like I'm not him. [He points at Arthur.] But you and your buddies tried it. Eames and who-the-fuck-ever else. Inception, right? Was that therapeutic?

It was a job. It's got nothing to do with you. [TRY TO SOUND A LITTLE LESS LIKE A SOCIOPATH, ARTHUR.]

Yeah, you keep saying that. Say it enough and maybe it'll even come true.

[Hm, if he slams against the door now, it'll be like coming up against a brick wall. So, Arthur waits a beat. Another beat. Another. Just long enough to figure Perry's away from the door now. Okay, that's enough waiting. Time to kick the door in like a TV cop. Hey, Arthur's from an action movie; THIS IS ALL IN A DAY'S WORK FOR HIM.]
