"The specificity of the details of your "Homeless Helga" series, the Germanic first name that starts with an H, the family-owned yogurt business, these details, sir, are... fabricated from your own imagination?" "Yeah." "They were." "Yeah, um..." "We, uh..." "I did, uh, join him in his apartment a couple of times this year and the year before." "Yes."

" Okay." "All right, I gotta go." " Okay, bye." " I love you." "I love you." "Mm..." " Mwah." " You're stupid." "Yes, I am." " Bye." " Bye." " Look what we did." " No." "No kitties." "Well then let's try this again." "Oh, my God, thank you so much." "You hold it, press it." "There you go." "And now do auto set." "Boop." "Look at that." "Look." "I got it open." "I know." "Look what you did." " Oh, no." " And I got this." "You sure did." "Hey, can you back up please?" " Thank you." " I can't believe that I got it." " You did." " How did it do that?" "I don't know." "It could be one of the kitties." "Did you open it?" "No, I didn't because I'm not in there." " You're not in the phone?" " Yup."
