Basically, the argument between the two men deals with how they should react to their unexplained imprisonment. Mr. I refuses to make any choices, insisting that only in this way can he remain entirely free: "The potential of my freedom has remained unchanged.

Others had been so emotionally numbed by the war that they found it hard to react at all. There would be no heroic memories to cherish?no Valley Forge, no San Juan Hill. And not many heroes either.
