Defying Orders 

Carol: Hey, where are you going? 

Miguel: We can’t sit here doing nothing. 

Carol: We have orders to stay here and to keep watch. You know as well as I do what the consequences are of defying orders. 

Miguel: I don’t care what kind of punishment I get. I can’t sit still and let things happen without an attempt at intervention1. 

Carol: What are you going to do, enter the fray2 without a plan? 

Miguel: I have a plan. I’m going to stop what’s going on using whatever means necessary. 

Carol: By doing what? Have you thought this through? 

Miguel: I’ll get the lay of the land and then formulate3 some options. Everything will work out. 

Carol: And I suppose you expect me to go with you, to stick my neck out, too? 

Miguel: That’s up to you. I’m not twisting your arm. 

Carol: How do you know that if I stay here, I won’t squeal4 on you? 

Miguel: I don’t. I guess I just have to rely on your sense of honor. 

Carol: Oh, come on, let’s go. 

Miguel: You’re coming with me? 

Carol: Against my better judgment5!
