"I can't tell you any more cause I know you'd understand every word I said, and then you'd only worry yourself sick with." (20.6)
Albert is one of the few characters who believes that Joey can understand him. But wait a second. Albert and the other English blab the whole thing about the horse sale within earshot, and Joey doesn't actually react. So maybe he doesn't understand, after all. What do you think?
