I might need a parrot.
Huh?
Well, to go with the eyepatch, to really complete the look. I think I still have that costume from Halloween.
Yeah, and don't underestimate the impact of a peg leg. Maybe the hospital can hook you up with a nice one. Maybe they have a two-body-parts-for-the-price-of-one kind of deal.
Oh, you know what the best part is? No one will ever make me watch "Jaws 3-D" again.
Okay... I know you're all upset... and I, myself, would much rather be sitting at the bedside of my one-eyed ex-fiancé than killing time here with you people in this overcrowded and, might I add, increasingly ripe-smelling basement. And I would be, too, if not for a certain awkward discussion he and I recently had right over there on that cot immediately following some exciting and unexpected breakup sex.
[The Potentials on the cot awkwardly get off it. Andrew jots down "breakup sex" on the board.]
There's evidence that Caleb may have established a foothold up north.
That's great.
I, em, I sent Spike to look into it.
Spike. Is this a mission from which you intend Spike to return alive?
Yes. I sent Andrew with him.
Again I ask the question.
You sure you don't wanna stop and pick up some burgers or something, you know, road trip food?
It's not a road trip. It's a covert operation.
Right. Right. Gotcha... I--I bet even covert operatives eat curly fries. They're really good.
Not as good as those onion blossom things.
Ooh, I love those.
Yeah, me, too.
It's an onion... and it's a flower. I--I don't understand how such a thing is possible.
See, the genius of it is, you soak it in ice water for an hour so it holds its shape. Then you deep-fry it root-side up for about 5 minutes.
Masterful.
Yeah. Tell anyone we had this conversation, I'll bite you.
Right.
And it's automatically you. You really do think you're better than we are.
No, I--
But we don't know. We don't know if you're actually better. I mean, you came into the world with certain advantages, sure. I mean, that's the legacy.
I--
But you didn't earn it. You didn't work for it. You've never had anybody come up to you and say you deserve these things more than anyone else. They were just handed to you. So that doesn't make you better than us. It makes you luckier than us.
