Victoria: But if by "argue" you mean they take a stand against what might be a culturally accepted term for you, then technically you're not looking at their point of view.

Elie: But you're missing the point...

Victoria: If "the point" is open to interpretation then one can never so-called "miss" it.

Elie: Oh god...
