It's been months now since he's actually been on a boat, and while he's been on land for long stretches before, there's always been a plan of setting sail again sooner or later. Here he doesn't have any plans like that, really. But then the present conversation cuts back into his conscious mind, and one of the things Molly said hits him.]
