“Trillian?” he said. “She’s just a kid. Cute, yeah, but temperamental. You know how it is with women. Or perhaps you don’t. I assume you don’t. If you do I don’t want to hear about it. Plug us in.”
Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker describes Trillian as cute but temperamental, generalises about women, discourages a reply and orders the listener to plug them in. The dismissive assessment belongs to the speaker and does not establish Trillian’s age or women’s character.
