Dreams of Sailing Alone

Joan Wilder What do you want? Seriously, I'd really like to know.

Jack Colton Came down here in a coffee boat, about a year and a half ago. Right. Christ, what job that was. But, I couldn't get over that ocean, though, you know. Yeah. I love the ocean. You know you just got to get out there - all by yourself - nobody else around. It's beautiful. So, that's what I want. Try to get enough money together to buy a boat and sail around the world.

Joan Wilder So, you're just gonna sail away? All by yourself?

Jack Colton Yeah.

Joan Wilder Sounds lonely, Jack T. Colton. Well, what does the "T" stand for?

Joan Wilder It was Grogan: the filthiest, dirtiest, dumbest excuse for a man west of the Missouri River.
