He gave an incredulous laugh and said, "You who have never been in love, telling me how it's suppose to be. Tell me, when was the last time you even appreciated full bosoms in the morning light? You who cast stones while living in a glass house. You think you know it all, Zech, but you don't know. Go ahead, judge me from that lofty perch of yours while you drink that wine that isn't kosher and mutter explicits when you think nobody can hear. Come down to my level for once and be realistic with me." He was standing up for himself in a way he never had before.

"The truth is, I don't want to please mother and find some girl and marry her just because she came from a family we know. I love Katherine and nothing you say or do will change my mind of that! When you find yourself in love with someone, come talk to me... because maybe then you'd understand."

He was about to leave it at that when the sound of a crash found his ears, and he said, "You'd better check your wet house guest. I'm sure you'll have a lecture in store for him as well on matters you don't get."
