The Creature:
Get up. Get up.
Victor Frankenstein:
You do speak.
The Creature:
Yes, I speak. And read. And think. And know the ways of man.
Victor Frankenstein:
How did you find me?
The Creature:
Your journal.
Victor Frankenstein:
Then you mean to kill me?
The Creature:
No.
Victor Frankenstein:
You murdered my brother, didn't you?
The Creature:
I took him by the throat with one hand, and lifted him off the ground, and slowly crushed his neck, and, as I killed him, I saw your face. You gave me these emotions, but you didn't tell me how to use them. Now two people are dead because of us. Why?
Victor Frankenstein:
There was something at work in my soul which I do not understand.
The Creature:
What of my soul? Do I have one? Or was that a part you left out? Who were these people of which I am comprised? Good people? Bad people?
Victor Frankenstein:
Materials. Nothing more.
The Creature:
You're wrong.
[Shows flute]

The Creature:
Did you know I knew how to play this? In which part of me did this knowledge reside? In these hands? In this mind? In this heart? And reading and speaking. Not things learned, so much as things remembered.
Victor Frankenstein:
Trace memories in the brain, perhaps.
The Creature:
Did you ever consider the consequences of your actions? You gave me life, and then you left me to die. Who am I?
Victor Frankenstein:
You... I don't know.
The Creature:
And you think I'm evil.
Victor Frankenstein:
What can I do?
The Creature:
There is something I want. A friend.
Victor Frankenstein:
[confused]
A friend?
The Creature:
A companion. A female. Someone like me. So she won't hate me.
Victor Frankenstein:
Like you? Oh, God. You don't know what you're asking.
The Creature:
I do know that with the sympathy of one living being I would make peace with all. I have love in me the likes of you can scarcely imagine. And rage, the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other.
Victor Frankenstein:
And if I consent, how will you live?
The Creature:
We would travel north, my bride and I, to the furthest reaches of the pole where no man has ever set foot. There we would live out our lives, together. No human eye would ever see us again. This, I vow. You must help me. Please.
Victor Frankenstein:
If it is possible to right this wrong. Then I will do it.
