"Is it too much to ask" "To that things just go according to plan?" "Maybe the universe doesn't approve of your plan." "It's okay to veer off the path once in a while." "You want to tell me what was going on earlier today?" "What you were so upset about?" "It's my friend." "She's...really sick." "I just found out." "I'm so sorry." "But that might explain it." "Explain what?" "Why the world seems different to you." "I got to go." "Man: hey!" "Come on!" "Move it,lady!" "Come on!" "Oh,jeez." "Wait!" "Sir!" "Excuse me!" "Just " " Shh!" "Excuse me,please,sir!"
