    Diane Arbus: Swim out?

    Lionel Sweeney: Yes.

    Diane Arbus: What are you saying?

    Lionel Sweeney: [he struggles for words] That I want you with me.

    Diane Arbus: What?

    Lionel Sweeney: Diane.

    Diane Arbus: What are you talking about? You want me to watch you die?

    Lionel Sweeney: I want you with me, that's all.
