Rick : [Rick enters the living room, where Frank is on the computer and Elektra is listening to her iPod on the sofa] Any new sponsors?
[Sponsors for Faith to sponsor her for the marathon she's taking part in for charity]
Frank : Yep. It's almost doubled.
Rick : Whoa! How have you done that?
[Rick sees on the computer screen that Frank has put the information about Faith's brother dying on her sponsor website]
Rick : Did you wright that?
Frank : Yeah.
Rick : You fool! She's going to go mad!
Elektra : [Takes out her earphones] What's the problem?
Rick : Frank's just told the world Faith's brother just died!
Frank : It's got her more sponsors.
Rick : Frank, she didn't want to tell us in the first place! Why do you think she'd want other people to know?
Frank : It's a campaign.
[Faith enters the room]
Frank : You get more money if people feel sorry for you.
Elektra : Frank...
Frank : It's a tribute because she's still running despite it all.
Faith : Did I ask you to write me a tribute? I told you that stuff in confidence!
Frank : I was just trying to help.
Faith : Did I ask for your help, you idiot?
Frank : You know what your problem is? You think you're better than everyone else!
Faith : What, because I believe in working hard and not wallowing in self-pity?
Frank : You can't see that people are trying to help!
Faith : I don't want your help!
[Faith leaves the room, Elektra follows]
Elektra : [Cuts to Faith and Elektra in their bedroom] He got your donations up! I thought that was important to you.
Faith : Keep talking. I've got nothing more to say.
Elektra : Even if he did make a mistake, can't you see he was trying to help you?
Faith : What is it with you lot thinking I need help? That's what got me stuck here! I was doing fine, looking after myself, paying my bills, doing well in school! And then I tell a teacher in confidence about my situation. Big mistake. I'm dragged out of my flat and dumped in care. That was her idea of "help".
