" It was an area where Ryan had grown up and fished.Ramius told Ryan that theRed Octoberhad been built for one purpose - to destroy the US, and that objective had been thwarted: "Maybe something good will come from it.This is your home.Leslie: But it""s huge! I thought it was a ranch house.Bick: My old man built it to show the cotton crowd that cattlemen were just as high-powered as they was."And when they got ya, you""ve got no more chance han a road rabbit...You""re walkin"" along, not a nickel in your jeans, you""re free as the wind.Nobody bothers ya.Hundreds of people pass you by in every line of business.Shoes, hats, automobiles, radios, furniture, everything, and they""re all nice loveable people.And they let you alone.Is that right? Then you get ahold of some dough and what happens? All those nice, sweet, lovable people become heelots.I love you.I didn""t know it but I do now...You were right.That""s why I came back.Oh, I do love you.Joe is informed that Frankie""s gang is wrecking everything.He responds: "Tell ""em to stop.They""re only wrecking their ownjoynt." Then he passionately kisses Miss Healy as Maudie and Mabel appear to witness what has just happened.He""s mine and no gal from Park Avenue can come in and take him away from me...Polite! That""s what I don""t like about it.A mug rying to be a gentleman....What""s got into him Leo? He ain""t the same guy anymore." Leo answers: "I don""t know.He just wants to injure himself I guess."At the taxi door, Joe invites Miss Healy to a private, quiet dinner at his club the next night.She is enthralled by his interest in her: "You lead a happy life, don""t you?...The Pirate of today...Happy days...You have something you must never lose...something different.I don""t know exactly what it is, well - exciting, or is it my imagination?" She accepts his invitation.
