That's all right, but...

What if there's no more fire in my mind on account of the hole I drilled through my brain?

[interns]

No way, not possible.

I lived in NYC, remember? I've seen burnouts and people who lost their fire, but that's not you.

For starters, your list of resolutions wouldn't look like that if that was you.

[maced_eggs]

No, like. Lit'rally drilled a hole, in my brain.

...You think?

[interns]

Well, okay, yeah. But I just mean that I've seen the people who've lost it, and you're not like that.

I do.

[maced_eggs]

You're too kind to me some days, Gwenny. You do know that?

[interns]

I thought I was the cruelest person you know?

[maced_eggs]

You can be both. Kindest an' cruelest.

[interns]

Oh! Well in that case, I accept it.

[maced_eggs]

God, I love you.

[interns]

Aww, shucks.

I love you too, Mason.

[maced_eggs]

Don't tell Petey. He might get a bit jealous.

[interns]

Nah, I think we're alright.
I love you guys in different ways, he knows that.

[maced_eggs]

He knows I'm your first pick for prom?
