I know you have a difficult personality. That isn't what I'm talking about. The night Hank and Logan were killed, when you permitted yourself to be around others, they were grateful for your presence. People look to you for reassurance when you let them, Margarita. Difficult personality notwithstanding. But anyway, I am glad you are making an effort to be more sociable with others. After physical therapy, I am going home.
I don't understand her reason why, not completely, but

What if I told you everything you accused me of doing and being, flirting on the bulletin board, having unduly prurient interests, being a bad man, everything, is true. And I'm sure you know how men like that are: they look for weak spots in an otherwise discerning woman's armor and every so often get lucky. Now I am remorseful and do not want Court to be perceived or judged for what has happened. Would you accept that, and be kind to her?
Ah well, I will not argue with you on that point. We did a good thing that night. I only hope that my judgement continues to inspire faith as we move into the Summit meetings. [...] Are you sure you will not come? I think you and I would make very good euchre partners.

I would find it difficult to believe, that you have been bad to or unclear with Court. You are both allowed your desires. If I am unkind to her, it has little nothing to do with your carnal activities.
I don’t know. […] I have a hard time focusing when things get too loud. It will not be enjoyable for you if I am your partner. Gideon is good at card games, ask him if you need someone.
Maybe someone can be bad without even trying or wanting to, and it’s just who they are. I think the only thing she cares about is not being perceived or judged, at any rate.
I’m 31, Maggie. You can’t be much older than me. And I’m hardly a healthy young man.
I suspect it’s valuable for you to know things about other people, for whatever reason, but if you keep digging in here, physical therapy will be very awkward. I told you everything you need to know, maybe more than I should have. Everything else is my business.

Who is calling you bad? And is that what you really mean? Who would judge you for being a healthy young man with appetites?

And I was not trying to gain anything over you by asking. I am just curious. But alright, I will not ask anymore awkward questions.

I’m sorry for being rude. I’ll see you tonight. It won’t take long, you’ll be able to make it to Whitney on time.
