Four Square Edited Scene

This is a edited scene from FOUR SQUARE! A few lines were deleted instead of the whole scene.

MAX: Michael's done this all his life, you know? Always thinking he knows better than us, but just getting us into more trouble.

LIZ: Families can be hard.

MAX: I don't even know if that's what we are. I mean, that's what we've pretended to be for so long, but what if Nasedo tells us something different? Doesn't Michael even think about these things?

LIZ: You are whom you choose to be, Max. Just like you're with whom you choose to be with.

They look at each other for a beat.

MAX: I really want to believe that.

Then they talk about star charts and stuff.... Later in the same scene:

LIZ: Was it better, Max?

MAX: What?

LIZ: Kissing Tess. Nasedo. Whoever it was. Was it better than kissing me? More powerful? (beat) More important?

MAX: When I kiss you, I feel heaven.

LIZ: (touched) That's not what I asked.

MAX: It was... upsetting. It made me feel things about myself I didn't like. Like there was this whole side of me I never even knew about.

LIZ: The alien side.

MAX: Maybe.
