extremely thirsty
Just let me get one glass of brown water cos I'm dying of thirst.Manhattan · 1979 — 第 21 / 23 章 · 3'27" · B2
Mary asks to talk before Isaac can begin his own story, and then tells him that she is still in love with Yale and has started seeing him again. Isaac is too stunned to be angry, which disappoints her, and she admits Yale wants them to move in together.
Mary stops Isaac before he can tell his story and says she has something to tell him. She is still in love with Yale, she has started seeing him again, and he wants them to live together. Isaac is shocked rather than angry, and Mary is almost disappointed that he will not fight her about it.

- I gotta get some air. - Oh.The scene is a breakup delivered as a confession, and Mary does the talking before Isaac can get a word in. She says the line plainly, "I think I'm still in love with Yale," and then fills in the practical details: they have started seeing each other, and Yale wants them to live together. What unsettles Isaac most is not the news but the timing, since Yale is his best friend and also married. He responds with numbness instead of rage, and Mary finds that worse, because she wanted an argument she could answer. The scene ends with him leaving for air and Mary apologizing, which is the only apology either of them gets.
I think I'm still in love with Yale.Mary's two-part confession: the news comes first, and the name, Yale, is the part that changes everything.
I'm too stunned to be furious.Isaac's flat description of his own reaction, which he offers instead of the anger Mary is looking for.

Donny's in a coma. He had a very bad acid experience.The absurd aside about her analyst, which casually explains why she has no counsel and keeps the comedy going.
She wants to be honest before Isaac begins his own story, and the relationship with Yale has just restarted. She admits she would rather he got angry so they could have it out.
Yale is Isaac's best friend and a man who has been married for twelve years. That is why Isaac's shock is worse than simple jealousy, and why the news lands as a betrayal.
He says he does not get angry and tends to internalise, joking that he grows a tumour instead. His numbness frustrates Mary, who wanted a fight.
It means to settle a problem by talking it through openly, usually in a heated argument. Mary wants Isaac to get angry so the two of them can have it out.
Isaac says he needs some air and leaves, and Mary apologizes on his way out. The confrontation stops there, with no resolution.
