Heyyyyyyyy, kiddo, you've reached me. Me who is Rhys. Anyway, not sure why you're trying to get in contact with the king of the dweebs, but I'm sure you've got your reasons. Reasons you should probably re-examine. I'm just sayin'.

Except it's not a guarantee you'll get that -- far from it! And, yeah, before you say it, any chance is better than no chance at all. So that's why you just have to get over it, b-because --

[ A pause for one of his coughing fits. ]

We need to be together. Take your risks, we'll take them right along with you.
