(Leroy) I have to ask you a question.



And it's an important one



so I want you to think about the
answer before you give it to me, OK?



OK.



When two people really love each
other but they can't get it together,



when do you get to that point
where enough is enough?



That... Oh, well, that's...
You know?



Um, you know it's over when...



OK, I have, like, these psychosomatic
insomniatic manifestations of...



Well, here's the thing about me.



I'm a product of my emotions, not a
product of my environment, like him,



which he is, exactly,
just that environmental...



I-l need sunshine to grow.
That's who I am.



And with the projection of...



I have goals.



- That's your answer?
- Yeah.



That's not right.



I mean, there's a right answer here,
but that's not it.



Look, in my business
you're surrounded...



by loneliness and finality.



I don't care what your take is
on an afterlife,



when people die, it's scary,
and they go alone.



Now, the people that I send off,



that have experienced love...



They're a little less scared.



They're still scared,
but there's a calmness to 'em.



I think that comes from the knowledge
that somebody somewhere loved 'em



and cared for 'em and will miss 'em.



Now, I see that from time to time
and I am awed by it.



I don't think I'd be telling you this
if it wasn't for Frank.



Anyway, it's a loaded question.



Look, when two people
love each other, totally, truthfully,



all the way love each other,



the answer to that question
is simple, especially in your case.



When do you get to that point
where enough is enough?



Never.



Never.



I just hope Jerry's not stupid.



...call me... .. .
