[Arthur blinks in confusion.]

I wasn't out yet! I hadn't quite made it to the bridge. Then the completely accidental accident happened and here I am.

[Sally had made it out. Not him. There'd been no 'we'. The more she talks, the more perplexed he becomes. Had she hit her head very hard? Her memories seemed particularly confused at the moment.

He fumbles his lighter out next, holding it up to light her cigarette for her. He'll have one, too, thank you very much. To be honest, he wouldn't mind a drink right now. A nice stiff one.

The expression of pure bewilderment on Arthur's face is entirely earnest. He has completely lost the thread of this conversation and he shakes his head helplessly.]


No, Sally, I've no idea what you're on about. She who? Oh, don't tell me you've caught whatever crazy Ollie had...

[If Sally is hallucinating imaginary people - or, well, was? - then he's not sure what he can do to help.]
