"But these kinds of problems... they're too big, all right?" "You can't fix them." "So, I have to do a volunteer project for school, and I was thinking that maybe I can do an internship for you here." "Well, this place is pretty chaotic." "I mean, it's cool, though." "I think it's great that you're doing it." "How was the college tour?" "It was good." "Mom drove me a little crazy." "You're just like her..." "You're tough, brave." "She said you like N.Y.U."
