Quote context

[...]

- Oh, yeah. I feel as if I've been away quite a while.

- Yeah.

- I went to Placid.

- I see.

- It was... It was horrible there.

- I can imagine.

- I'm gonna take that job at the bank, Linda.

- I see.

- Only for a while. Only for a couple of years. Just until I can get it through to her that...

- Well, it was what she asked, and after all, a couple of years isn't a lifetime, is it?

- Of course not.

- I think everything is going to be all right, Johnny.

- Sure.

- But... But hang it, why can't they see what I'm getting at?

- Perhaps eventually they will.

- Compromise?

- Yes. Yeah.

- You think that's right, don't you?

- I don't think it matters a bit what I think.

- It does though, Linda.

- You think it's right, don't you? Say you think it's right.
