Transcript

(Jonas is in the library. He is wearing a wool cap.)

Jonas: Hey everybody, it's Jonas, uhh... I guess I'm--I guess I'm caught up... in what's going on now. Here's what happened; yesterday, a bunch of us were in a chat room talking to Bree and she seemed... upset. You know, she's... desperate for money or a place to stay... I dunno. She--she wouldn't say where she is, or what she's doing, but umm... you know, I guess she just doesn't wanna give away too many details. And... I can't really say that I blame her, you know with everything that she's been through. Anyway, I--I offered to help by giving them money or I offered for her and Daniel, they could come and crash at my place. I'd have to say she was pretty reluctant. I don't think she trusts me. Listen Bree, if--if you're watching, umm, you need to trust someone. Look, and I know--I know where you're coming from 'cause I used to have major, major trust issues. I--I didn't trust my teachers, friends, I did--I didn't even trust my own parents. But umm... (Jonas pauses.) I didn't even trust my own parents. But umm, you know, and it wasn't that I thought everyone was out to get me, or whatever, I just, I dunno, I just thought... I could take care of myself. Funny, a lot of that changed when I started sailing with my dad. And I know, but hold on, bear with me: sailing is not a one-man job. Well actually it, unless you're in a dingy, then it kind of is a one-man job, but if we're talking about a full-size boat, you know, a full-size sailing boat, you need to be able to trust everyone who's around you. One time, umm, I'm out with my dad, and we get--we get this small craft advisory. I begged him, begged him for us to go back in. I just--I just didn't think it was safe. He looked at me and he said, (Jonas impersonates his father's voice.) "Jonas, are you crazy? Today we're gonna ride the waves." (Jonas laughs.) I'm pretty sure he could tell I was scared partly because of the death grip I had on the railing. For the record? Best day of my life. This thing was... like the most badass roller coaster you can imagine. I'd say, easily a hundred times better than Goliath. After that, umm, I knew at least I could trust him. Look Bree, umm, look, I know things suck right now, and--and you're scared... but, uhh, you can trust me.
