Yes, that’s basically what I said. I know there is no unabridged version of the book, because I’m not a dunce. That was the joke, but you’re so worried about being right and getting the last word you missed it.
I’ve seen the movie damn near a thousand times. I’ve read the book (didn’t I already make this clear). We’re both fans.
It’s not a plot hole. It’s a single stepped on line that does not matter to the plot and major motivations of the characters.
