While Candy sees Mr. McDonnell's eventual success in getting on a flight as a victory, I'm afraid I see it as just another example of the capriciousness of the deciders.

Agreed.

Just because one caves in does not mean the other is victorious. The so-called victor endured time loss and humiliation.

Not right.

The only good part is that he got home, but you're right, it doesn't make up for the humiliation. Jetstar=:td:
