Abstract
Schegloff and Sacks' paper entitled Opening up closings (1974) presents a model of the transcontextual utterance format (referred to below as the "structure") which speakers use to manage the closings of conversations. The authors' presentation of this model is qualified as having been developed only with reference to situations in which speakers do not "find it difficult to get out of a conversation they are in" (1974, p. 234). In this paper, I examine the Schegloff and Sacks model with reference to the closings of certain "difficult" conversations.
