"seems to me i understand a lot better than you do. girl, if i'm angry, i scream, and if something hurts, i yell. you ever hear me when the doctor starts messin' around with my foot? well maybe i make too much noise, but i'll tell you something. them doctors are always sayin', 'does it hurt here? does it hurt here?' and if i don't tell them, they don't know. and if they don't know, they'll just go on hurting me. and i ain't about to let anyone do that."
"yeah, but this is different"
"bullshit. you go on screamin' and you're just askin' people to go on hurtin' you"

..and then she knew that she wasn't alone with them at all. she was simply alone.
