[after John Dee takes a seat in the Diner] Best seat in the house. How are you doing today?
How am I doing? … Well … I'm feeling better than I have for quite some time. Thank you.
Mmm. I could use some of that. What's your secret?
Shall I tell you the truth?
Well, honesty is the best policy.
That's what they say, isn't it? Well, I hope it's true. This … [holds up Dream's Ruby] is my secret.
It's gorgeous.
It makes dreams come true.
I bet it does. And what are you dreaming about? New house? New job?
A new world. A more honest one.
That is the dream, isn't it? Well, can I get you a cup of coffee while we wait for our dream to come true?
Please. But we won't be waiting for long.
Then I better hurry up and get you that coffee.
