There's only one thing that matters right now: coming out the other side of that place. That's what I keep telling you -- if you want to be the one to do that, you can't do it twenty different ways! You need one plan. Or this is what happens: you make promises you can't keep, that you break right away, because you're thinking about them differently, and that's what matters to you.

I can't live that way. I can't feel safe going there with you, knowing you're just going to keep throwing yourself at whatever comes along, waiting for you to do something else that scares me to death because you want to be more... open-minded, or whatever, because you're trying to do everything at once. You don't want to choose one way, but that's not going to work. So you tell me, Tiffany: who would you rather have with you? Me or Alfie Solomons?
[This is not in any way a rhetorical question, and from the strain in her voice and the way she's already physically withdrawing, going smaller, she sounds like she already knows which one Tiffany is going to pick.]
