Whispered

I haven't seen the movie yet, but just from reading the play...the audience never finds out. It's suppose to be ironic that the one thing that was truthful in the entire story...was something that we don't even hear or see. It's between the characters. Pretty much it's one of those...what do you think she said?

I always kind of thought, especially based on what I perceived as his hurt reaction when she told him it was the only true thing, that she actually told him the truth in that moment. A lot of times my girlfriend and I will tease each other and say things about not really loving each other, etc., but it's obvious we're just kidding around. Maybe she said something to him along the lines of, "I don't really love you," but he just assumed at the time that she was kidding around.

My guess - and that is not meant to be funny: That she likes the shape of his penis. Think about it for a while (e.g. considering the very beginning, maple leaf, dialogue).

I think she did end up falling for him in the end. A twist on Pygmalion, to which Adam refers at one point. The literary references aren't just there... they mean something. In essence, Adam is Galatea, or Eliza Doolittle and Evelyn (Adam and Eve... makes you think they may be literally made for each other) is the archetypal creator who must, even though she is disconnected, love that which she creates. She must say something to the effect that she does, in fact, love him. The other literary allusion was to Othello (handkerchief with strawberries on it), who destroyed the one thing he loved the most, his wife, Desdemona. In the same way, Evelyn was driven by her passion for her work, to destroy the one thing in her life that actually held any meaning... her relationship with Adam.

I think it may be "I am glad you opened up to me." and it's true because she asked afterward if he was always this shy. She also would have been glad for him to open up and have sex with her despite not being able to do it in the past with many girls because him opening up and changing is her art project. I also think she began to develop feelings for him towards the end which is why it was so hard for her at the beginning of her presentation, and she had a tear in her eye at the end, but either way she thought it was best they didn't speak ever again so she said that was the only truthful thing she said to him...

because she, having already stuck the knife deep in, was executing a final twist of it. She knew that this would torture him one last time and that was precisely the reaction she evinced. He already knew that nothing she had told him was true, and yet he leapt to cling on to this final proffered morsel like a drowning man. Any port in a storm, but he will reflect that it was simply the final lie. Perhaps the sociopathic EAT meant for him to feel better, had offered him a palliative to deflect possible immediate retribution, out of self-preservation.

Speaking of which, if it be true that "there is no place for morality in an art gallery", then one would assume that she, having embraced and emblazened this dictum across a wall of one, would have approved of him sticking a knife in her throat right then and there. After all, it's a phrase she introduced early on which she was very quick to cover up. But we can deduce that such a concept did form part of her working phraseology. And, lord knows, the bitch deserved it.

didn't anybody else have the sound on? i did, and clearly she said, "garb blah goo bahbah bleh blick".

Alcoholism is a disease. So why is alcoholism the only disease you can get yelled at for?
