You're tied up in this a hundred different ways, no wonder you want to be as calm and neutral as possible. But [...] I ain't Switzerland. At all. I don't know how to be. I'm on his side, and I don't even think he's on his side right now. So throw me a bone here.
I ain't got a hundred different interests, or lines to tow. I just got the one. And I'm feeling real protective right now, I stopped pretty short of telling him to run for his fucking life, even though I contemplated it a time or two. But I got to know, what do you think? Is there any way this ends well for him? Because apparently he's going to keep trying until it fucking kills him. Hopefully you're inclined to give me a straight answer where you'd be, understandably, less inclined to give him one.
