Walter Connolly as Jones

• (Walter Connolly) "Yen once told me you could crowd a lifetime into an hour. Heh. Into a drink. Great guy. Great gambler. Told me he couldn't lose. And the joke was certainly on him. He lost his province, his army, and his life. Maybe not. Maybe the joke's on us. Ah -- maybe you will marry Strike at that. Yen was crazy. He said we never really die -- we only change. He was nuts about cherry trees. Well, maybe he's a cherry tree now. Maybe he's the wind that's pushing that sail. Maybe he's the wind that's playing around in your hair. Ah -- its all a lot of hooey. I'm drunk. Just the same -- I hope when I cool off, the guy that changes me sends me where Yen is -- and I bet I'll find you there, too."
