Hal's confession to Mario — "Booboo, I’m up on my elbow…"

quote

‘Booboo, I’m up on my elbow again. Tell me what you think I should do.’

Context

Carlisle's reading of the scene's body-grammar: flat on his back and shadowless, Hal can confess; up on the elbow, no longer horizontal, he's ready to act despite fear. Worth holding against the later horizontal-Hal scenes, where the reversal reverses. Recorded as his reading.
