“hey, i can see you. come on out here. i can see you hiding.”
“all right, don’t break your other arm.”

“i’m sorry to hear that.”
“he was lost in the middle of a vast desert, full of orange sand with only a handful of men but they didn’t have any water.”
“i believe your wisdom shall save us all.”
“it’s stupid.”
“what would you do better?”
“hey, why don’t you come back tomorrow … and i’m going to tell
you a different story. an epic tale of love and revenge.”
“you know what “epic” means?”
“you should be fully recovered.”
“in the next couple of weeks the pain should abate, then one more operation.”
