Edward "Eddie" Horniman and Susan "Susie" Glass in “The Gospel According to Bobby Glass”

Why didn’t you say anything back there? You’ve been running the operation for years. Gonna let him sell it out from under you?

I’m an employee, Eddie. Just like you.

What do you mean? He’s your father. He didn’t even ask your opinion.

He didn’t ask for yours either. You went behind my back, Eddie. Not once, but twice.

Well, I think it’s safe to say we both made some miscalculations, to put it mildly, but it’s business, Susan.

Got your way in the end, didn’t you? Dad’s selling up, and you’re getting out.

What about you? You’re a little young to retire.

I can think of worse things for the soul than getting my full ten hours and bingo on a Wednesday.

Quite.

He’s made up his mind. Let’s just do what the old man says and be done with it.
