Audrey seems much more definite in her answers, but Elliot usually gives a couple of options. I loved Audrey’s comment about how she’s different from you: “You’re taller.” It reminds of a conversation from the end of Dr. Zhivago, when a Soviet official is interrogating Lara’s daughter. “What did she look like?” “Big.” “Big?” “I was little. She was big.”
