James: grabs the microphone No! Stop the music! This isn't right! pauses, gathering his thoughts Look, Sarah, I know you're hurt because of what Jake did, but marrying him won't solve anything!
Stranger
James calm down and tell me why should I not marry him..
James: runs a hand through his hair, trying to compose himself Okay, okay. Look, Sarah, marrying Jake might seem like a way to make him pay for what he did, but it's not.
Stranger

James: takes a deep breath Marrying Jake won't change the past, it won't heal your wounds, and it won't give you the justice you deserve.
Stranger
