[no come clean pow-wow at this time please and thank you]
I'm not saying you have to hate anyone, I was--
[--Hoping that she would trust him and start to hate Tom all on her own, by his recommendation alone? Maybe sort of that's what he was hoping for, yes. There's still time.
It's fear for his own life that motivates him. But it's also a fear of what they don't know. If Tom McNair really comes from their future--if there really is a time when he gets to be friends with Annie, where they have ice cream soda dates--Christ, how does it come to that? He doesn't know that he wants to know. He definitely doesn't want Annie to know.]
Look, I'm not trying t' be the bad guy here. Just let me talk to him first. All right? And then you can make all the tea that you want for him, I swear.
