Stepping Stone

Candy Montgomery: Allan, you seem to be leaving it up to me, so I'm just deciding. I'm not gonna call. I'm not gonna try to see you. I ju-I won't bother you anymore.

Allan Gore: [pause] Okay.

Candy Montgomery: Ok-

[laughs]

Candy Montgomery: Wow. Well, you certainly unleashed your feelings there.

[laughs]

Allan Gore: Well, I'm not sure how you want me to respond.

Candy Montgomery: Do you remember what you told me? That the days you spent with me at the Como, that they were the only hours of your week where you didn't feel responsible for other people's emotions. Meaning Betty. The burden of making her happy. The burden of keeping her from being miserable. Now, have you ever... felt any responsibility for my emotions? Do you now?

Allan Gore: [Nervous laugh, stammering] Candy, uh...

Candy Montgomery: Ah.

[Walks away, scoffing]
