Revisiting how Scene 89 is scripted:
As far as "today's quote" goes, it was December 15th this time around.
As far as "today's quote" in that post goes, it's today's quote this time around.
Setting up Scene 89:
89 INT - CORRIDOR - NIGHT 89
About half-way down, Quentin stops Alex, obviously
not wanting the girls to hear him. The girls
continue on.
And that's when today's quote -Page 39/Scene 89 - Quentin: 'Listen, I've had more of those crazy daydreams.'
- comes up.
And so far as anything being different with the dialogue, what Quentin actually says is "I'm having more of those crazy daydreams."
And so far as anything being different with the descriptions and directions, Quentin and Alex get barely past the dining room doorway when Quentin actually stops Alex - and we don't actually see Tracy and Claire continue down the corridor.
As far as "today's quote" goes, it was December 15th this time around.
Wrapping up Scene 89, beginning with Alex's response to Quentin bringing up his "daydreams":
ALEX
Want to talk about them?
89 CONTD CONTD 89
QUENTIN
as he looks in the direction of Tracy.
And that's when today's quote -Page 40/Scene 89 - Quentin: 'Not now. Why don't you come over tomorrow.'
- comes up.
End of scene and sequence.
And so far as anything being different with the dialogue, the descriptions, and the directions, Alex slaps Quentin on the back before he asks if Quentin wants to talk about his "daydreams" - and after Quentin presumably looks in the direction of Tracy (we don't see her), he turns to Alex, the "Not now" is dropped, and what Quentin actually asks him is "Can you come over tomorrow?" - and then, in yet more unscripted dialogue, Alex answers "Sure", and after Quentin smiles, Alex says "Okay" and slaps Quentin on the back again before the two start down the corridor.
As far as "today's quote" in that post goes, it's today's quote this time around.
