Lena and Brainy in “Unfinished Business”

Lena

Look, Brainy, I know you haven't asked for help, but you're getting it anyway.

Brainy

No. I need my mind consumed with this problem so I don't think of Nia.

Lena

What happened to your little boxes?

Brainy

Little boxes prevented me from having a real relationship. Unfortunately, my unboxed self does not make a particularly good boyfriend. So I have been analyzing myself for days, searching for a way to modulate myself for the woman I love.

Lena

Well, I'm not gonna give you relationship advice. But as a scientist, you seem to be stuck in an infinite loop, and unless you can escape, you're headed for a crash.

Brainy

That would be cataclysmic.

Lena

So change a variable. What's the one thing you haven't tried yet? Asking for help?

Brainy

Will you he... [getting tongue-tied, he clears his throat and coughs] Will you help... me?

Lena

Yes. And I think a small dose of that would go a long way with Nia.
