"R" is rejects
« Reply #4771 on: July 11, 2006, 11:39:36 pm »
Over the years, Jack tries unsuccessfully to get Ennis to come with him and build a life of their own, but Ennis rejects him every time.

This is the replacement "R" word.

The next letter is "T".

What begins as a utilitarian alliance between Jack and Ennis becomes a bond and so much more.
