| Jun 3, 2016 at 1:44 | comment | added | DyingIsFun | Thanks for the helpful comments all. The OP did provide the script (as an answer), so I rather significantly edited the question to include it (after which the answer was deleted). Hopefully everything is cleared up now. | |

| Jun 3, 2016 at 1:35 | comment | added | StoneyB on hiatus | @Lawrence OP provided the script, which provides the essential context and shows exactly what OP misunderstood; OP should have included it in the question to begin with. | |
| Jun 3, 2016 at 1:25 | comment | added | Steven Littman | @Jimin--I don't think Silenus said that it was about direct/indirect speech. He (she?) was just giving background. If you'd prefer, read from the paragraph that begins "When speaker A says..." and you'll find that your answer is in there, in the discussion of elliptical sentences. | |

| Jun 3, 2016 at 1:01 | comment | added | Lawrence | @Silenus I up-voted your answer, but your subsequent edit of the OP's question significantly changes its reading (and possibly intent). The 'script' would be better placed in your answer, I think. | |
