At the same time, Silence pulls out fiddling. He's calling people to "get rid of this poisonous trash." Silence is annoyed that he's being called a "nuisance" and that she's making "false claims" about his sexual orientation. Silence turns around and sheepishly says, "poine me" . He tells her that he has a "high-risk job" and if he ever does it, she can offer him a job for "old times sake." Silence says he'd rather have a "stranger in the house" than a "public nuisance" like Silence. Silence tells him that if he gets lost now, he'll pay a taxi fare. Silence says that he understands that civil servants aren't always honest and that he can return his car after the storm stops.
