"Sarah, when did you say the pilot was getting in?"
"Probably like an hour?I mean, once he's here, my dad says we can leave whenever we want. "
"Okay, well, as much as I would love to ghost my parents again, I can't."
" Pope, we're talking El Dorado here. Can you just slip out the back maybe?"
"Great advice."
"jj he can't just ghost his parents they're gonna report him missing again"
"it always worked for me. How to avoid unpleasant circumstances 101. If there's a problem, you don't wanna face it, turn that face and keister around and walk the other way."
" I'm not doing that, okay?"
"I just want you to be there, dog."
" I'm gonna be there. I'll meet you at the airstrip in an hour?"
"Yeah, we'll see you there."
"One hour, Pope. Not a second later."
" Think you should let me talk, Pope. Think your mom kinda likes me."
" I don't think it's gonna be pleasant for either of us."
" I'm gonna take a stroll back to the shack. For old time's sake. I always wanted to go to South America. Great surf, cheap weed."
