Conflicting Promises of Love and Fear
Laurel Gray I'll stay with you, Dix, I promise. I'll stay with you. I love you, Dix. I'll marry you. I'll go away with you. Take me...
Dixon Steele You'd run away from me the first chance you get.
Laurel Gray Don't act like this, Dix, I can't live with a maniac.

The Complexity of Trust and Violence
Laurel Gray Dix doesn't act like a normal person. You don't go around hitting people, smashing cars, torturing your best friend. I'm scared of him. I don't trust him. I'm not even sure he didn't kill Mildred Atkinson.
Mel Lippmann Laurel! You're going too far.
Laurel Gray Am I? Have you forgot what you asked me when we first met? You weren't sure of him either, and you knew him better than anybody else. Why can't he be like other people?
