I don't know.

What made you snub Mr. Lyon so often?
gpt
Did I? He won't mind much. Didn't you see, mother, that he was distrait the moment he espied that girl? I'm not going to waste my time. I know the signs. No fisheries imbroglio for me, thank you.

Fish? Who said anything about fish?
gpt
Oh, the international business. Ask Mr. Henderson to explain it. The English want to fish in our waters, I believe. I think Mr. Lyon has had a nibble from a fresh-water fish. Perhaps it's the other way, and he's hooked. There be fishers of men, you know, mother.

You are a strange child, Carmen. I hope you will be civil to both of them.
