A brief section, one allowing Reef/Kit/Dally to withdraw from the Anarchist
discussion; they might have departed to have this discussion later, or the
exchange might feature as an aside, characters withdrawing to one side of
the stage, so to speak, while action continues (in dumb show?) elsewhere.
The previous section ends with a fast-forward ("Later ...") that evidently
does not refer to the current exchange. The disagreement of sorts that
emerges between Reef and Kit/Dally highlights the anachronistic nature of
the family feud when juxtaposed to "the forces of History".
