This reads to me as an implicit threat.

because-of-the-implication The whole purpose of buying the truck in the first place was to stage a kidnapping before I propose to my girlfriend... then she can't refuse...because of the implication.

both-sides Okay you had me goin' there for the first half. The second half kinda threw me.

because-of-the-implication Well dude, think about it. She's out in the middle of nowhere, with a truck full of dudes with crowbars she barely knows. She looks around and what does she see? Nothing but trees "Ah there's nowhere for me to run! What am I gonna do, say no?"

both-sides Okay. That seems really dark.

because-of-the-implication It's not dark, you're misunderstanding me, bro.

both-sides I think I am.

because-of-the-implication Yeah, you are. Because if my girlfriend says 'no', then the answer is obviously 'no'. But the thing is she is not gonna say no. She would never say 'no', because of the implication.

both-sides Ok, now that's the second time you've said that word, what implication?

because-of-the-implication The implication that things might go wrong for her if she refuses to marry me. Not that things are gonna go wrong for her, but she's thinking that they will.

both-sides ... But it sounds like she doesn't want to marry you..

because-of-the-implication Why aren't you understanding this?
