...it was a metaphor, kid. Anything that comes out of Hollywood has a clearly defined protagonist, antagonist, and plot arc. Here? Well...take Casablanca, and then take out Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman, and Paul Henreid. Then, take it out of Morocco and take away the Letters of Transit.

That's our situation. Sorry, kid. A Nic Cage film would be so much simpler.
