She could have avoided the question or not answered it, but she did. He respected that.
"That must have been tough, but you guys weathered it all right, it seems. The reason I asked is because you spoke about him a little earlier and...he had to be a good guy if you cared for him. I know the way the tabloids liked to paint you and I know you're still hurting in some ways but this is why I know you're worth way more than the Kree thought you were worth. It's also how I know you're going to get past all the anger and be stronger than ever on the other side of this.
You really cared about him, which is reminds me of the Roxanne that I grew up with. She cares about people a lot, even if she likes to go out and have a good time, too." Joe said.
"I really hope that didn't sound like a Hallmark card or really sappy."
