Yet there was a bit of a difference between Dominique and Dagny. Also, both Dominique and Dagny agreed to be the third person in the stories of Howard and Gail, and Francisco and Hank, respectively. Hank decided that Dagny’s reputation in society was more important than his own respect for her. Gail thought that Dominique was another item in his collection of artwork.
