I feel like I know you already.

Hi.

Paddy must be thrilled

to have you home.

Yeah.

But you're not?

Oh, I just wish home

Oh. Well...

I suppose Flemington is a little

different than what you're used to.

Just a little.

Oh, I brought you your keys.

Thank you for letting us

use your car.

You're welcome. Anytime.

Okay. So...

How's it going, Calvin?

I love this game.

I love it, I love it.

Oh, hey, Desiree.

Nice to see you.

Thanks, Moe.

I see you got back alive.

Yeah, but I think I might have

killed the Mini Cooper.

Uh-oh.

Mr. P, Francine

would forgive you anything,

if you know what I mean.

Huh. What's he

talking about?

Uh, nothing!

Big mouth.
