Dee: Well, I'm proud of you for apologising.
Emily: Because I was halfway nice to people for once?
Dee: Sure, that - but it was brave of you. It can be hard to swallow your pride like that. Especially if you don't like the people you're apologising to.
Emily: I didn't swallow any pride! I'm not too proud to apologise, I'm too proud not to. I have no respect for people who can't see where they're at fault and apologise appropriately. There's nothing face saving about refusing to apologise. It doesn't make you less wrong. So if I hadn't apologised today, I'd be ashamed of myself.
