That line always confused me and I never knew what to think of it. According to RDM, the scene was originally much longer.
"I like this little chat that they have, this was a longer chat as scripted and shot, where Kara talked more about Lee, and her problems with Lee, and her— the emotional stuff with Dualla, and there was more give and take between the two. It was a scene that I wrote, and it wasn't that good, we saw it on camera and I just felt it was a little overwrought and a little too melodramatic, a little too soapy, and it just— it- less is more is the cliché, and it's true. You could get away with a lot less being said in this scene then what I initially thought." Terry: Just the fact that these two women are in this situation— RDM: -is plenty. Terry: —it's plenty. RDM: You don't need them to really bare their souls and it doesn't play.
