  • Partridge: You always knew.
  • [begins to read from Yeats]
  • Partridge: "But I, being poor, have only my dreams. I have spread my dreams under your feet. Tread softly because you tread on my dreams." I assume you dream, Preston.
  • John Preston: I'll do what I can to see they go easy on you.
  • Partridge: We both know they never "go easy".
  • John Preston: Then, I'm sorry.
  • Partridge: No, you're not. You don't even know the meaning. Its just a vestigial word for a feeling you've never felt.
  • John Preston: There's no war. No murder.
  • Partridge: What is it you think we do?
  • John Preston: No. You've been with me, you've seen how it can be - the jealousy, rage.
  • Partridge: A heavy cost. I pay it gladly.
  • [Reaches for his gun]
  • John Preston: When we return from the Nether it always reminds me of why we do what we do.
  • Partridge: It does?
  • John Preston: [pauses; He takes notice of Partridge's intonation] I beg your pardon?
  • Partridge: [Withdraws Prozium-administering device from his pocket and injects himself with it] It does.
