Quotes

Esmeralda: A few weeks ago in the archive room, someone found a picture of Barry when he was 30 and he was very handsome. So that image stuck in my mind for several days, but then Barry did something very inappropriate ? because when you think about a man that way, he knows that he can come into your dreams and he can have his way with you. I am very sorry to say that Barry took that liberty. If it happened once, it would be OK, because I was willing. There was a mutual attraction, but then it happened every night. Barry has come every night, unbidden, into my dreams, and he has had me. I have my needs like everybody else, maybe more, but he is insatiable. And then the day after, I come into the office and he pretends like nothing happened. How dares he!"
