Billy:
I couldn't get work, and I couldn't bear to see her... to see her...

Starkeeper:
You couldn't bear to see her cry? Why don't you come right out and say it? Why are you ashamed you loved Julie?

Billy:
I ain't afraid of anything. Look, if I can't go back, just say so.

Starkeeper:
I didn't say you couldn't go back.

Billy:
No, but you didn't say I could, either. You're just trying to make me sweat.

Starkeeper:
No. I'm just trying to figure out what good you could do if I let you go back. You know... your daughter's down there. She's unhappy, she needs help.

Billy:
My daughter? My baby is a girl? My-my baby's a girl?

Starkeeper:
She isn't a baby anymore. She's fifteen years old.

Billy:
And she ain't happy, huh?

Starkeeper:
No, she ain't, Billy. You know, she's a lot like you. I think maybe that's why you could help her.

Billy:
Can I see her from here?

Starkeeper:
Sure, you can, if you want to.

Billy:
If she ain't happy, I don't want to look.

Starkeeper:
Right now, she appears to be having a fine time. There she is, running along the beach there, got her shoes and stockings off.

Billy:
Like I used to do, huh?

Starkeeper:
Yeah. Do you want to take a look at her?

Billy:
What do I have to do to see her?

Starkeeper:
Just look, and wait, and the power to see her will come to you.
