One it’s dally but at first from the hospital dally didn’t want to talk to the reporters because of all what happened to Johnny so it shows that dally is someone who is tough and closed off at first but once you get him to start talking he’s very bubbly and fun to be around but at the moment his guard was up and didn’t want to be around the reporters.
